## Opinion text

Gordon, C. J.
I concur in the judgment of affirmance, but not in what is said concerning the effect to be given the contract referred to in the opinion as the Associated Press contract. If, as is suggested in the opinion, its character is one “in the nature of a personal contract for services,” then it does not fall within that class of contracts which are obnoxious to the law because made in restraint of trade and commerce.
