TWO FOOTBALLERS SUSPENDED

G. Bennett (Footscray) was suspended for the next

six premiership matches and R. Baggott (Melbourne) for

the next four matches, by the Independent Tribunal of the

Victorian Football League last night. Bennett had been

charged with having punched Baggott, and the latter with

having attempted to retaliate.
