On June 30, 1958 the United States filed a complaint against sole defendant True Temper alleging that True Temper and several co conspirators conspired to restrain and monopolize the manufacture and sale of steel golf club shafts.

Also on June 30, 1958 the United States filed a complaint against True Temper and four golf club manufacturers alleging that they conspired to restrain and monopolize markets for golfclubs and steel shafts.
