L.A. Express Gets More Aid

The United States Football League, now in its third year, voted today to keep the financially troubled Los Angeles Express franchise afloat for the rest of this year.

The league also reaffirmed its decision to switch to a fall schedule in 1986, but it will do so without the Tampa Bay Bandits. John Bassett, the owner of the Bandits, one of the USFL’s strong franchises, voted against the season switch and said he will pull his team out of the league and will form another spring-summer league.
