          The Indianapolis City-County Council last night "firmly
     endorsed the negotiations to keep" the Colts in the city,
     according to Robert Bell of the INDIANAPOLIS STAR-NEWS. 
     Following the council's meeting, which was attended by 12
     Colts players, Owner Jim Irsay said that he "hopes to have a
     letter of agreement" with the city by December 23.  Bell
     calls the show of support "good for the Colts" because city
     officials had said that "without council backing, they would
     stop" negotiations with the team (STAR-NEWS, 12/16).
