Finally!
The feud between the Amateur Athletic Union (A.A.U.)
and the NC A A, sponsored United States Track and Field
federation has, at long last, reached a settlement.
I he leaders of the two warring groups met with General
Douglas MacArthur, the Prcsidentially appointed arbitra
tor, and came to an agreement that is supposed to last until
the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo.
I nder the pact, a hoard composed of three men from
each group will select the American athletes for the Olym
pics, an immediate amnesty was declared for athletes who
have been disqualified by either group, and the ban on the
use of athletic facilities by the other group was lifted.
Reaction by observers tended to suggest that the
U S.T.F.F. came out ahead after the compromise and also
have a position to improve their gains in talks that will com
mence after the Olympics.talks that will be designed to
hammer out a final solution.
I he settlement came as good news to the sponsors of the
Oregon Invitational Indoor track and field meet in Port
land Meet director Bob Newland figures that a dual sanc
tion for the meet from the two groups is now almost a cer
tainty which will allow all the non-collegiate runners to
participate. These include, among others, Dyrol Burleson.
Ralph Boston and Parry O'Brien.
“Good Step Forward"
I .oral track and field enthusiasts, all of whom have sup
ported the \ ('A A generally mirrored track coach Bill
Bowerman's comment that the settlement was. ‘‘A real
good step forward.”
Bowerman has been among the leaders for the college
group in its attempt to break the A.A.U. monopoly. He
stated that he hadn't anticipated a more favorable settle
ment to the collegians. 'It takes a while.” he said, meaning
of course that this would only be the beginning of the
struggle.
Newland was especially enthusiastic about the truce. He
said, it's great. This is the way it should be.”
Athletic Department publicist Hal Childs was a little
more pessimistic. He called the settlement an “armed
truce”. However, he admitted that the U.S.T.F.F. “gained
a little ground.”
Another, more optimistic, member of the Athletic De
partment said that the pact “appears to be. on the surface,
a substantial gain for the Federation.” He also pointed out
that this is the first time that the A.A.U. has even recog
nized that the Federation existed It is also the first time
that any organizaion has shared any kind of control over
the selection of Olympic athletes in the history of the A.A.U.
Not The End
We also agree that the settlement gave a substantial
gain in prestige and power to the Federation. However, as
it now stands, the truce is very far from being any kind of a
final solution to the problem
We imagine that the A.A.U. is not about to relinquish the
power they have held for so long. With such a temporary
peace they can still work to put down the collegiate rebel
lion. Until the 1964 Olympics, only General MacArthur
stands as an enforcer of the settlement.
Anyway, peace has been restored for the time being and
the nation’s track and field men can run whenever they
want, wherever they want, without fear of a suspension
This is the good that came out of the settlement.
We hope that any disputes that arise between now and
the Olympic Games will not be of too serious a nature
because if they are. they could cause a dispute that might
not be as easily settled as this one was.
Child's “armed truce” idea is the one that appeals to us as
the most appropriate. Both sides are wary of this settlement.
The Federation wants to get more power until it is recog
nized internationally and the A.A.U. surely wants to regain
its old authority and prestige. With a situation such as this,
even though a truce has been called, one can still look for
a display of fireworks at any little disagreement.
It is doubtful that the peace will remain until 1964. But
here’s hoping another dispute won’t bring the consequences
to the athlete that the last one did.

ed the whole team's defensive
work for the two wins, also men

Jim Johnson played an import
ant role both nights He scored 14
in the first game and 11 in the sec
ond besides getting 17 rebounds
for the series.
Belko plans to give the team a
respite from practice today but
will have them back on the court

Friday; UO 60, WSU 51
Friday night, the Ducks jumped
off to an early lead and then held
on to it for the remainder of the
game.
The Wcbfoots pulled away from
the beginning and led by 13 points
early in the first period The Cou
gars were able to narrow the gap
to only a single point in the sec
ond half. After that however they
cooled off and the Jones-led Ducks
opened up an 11 point lead to win
going away.
Jones topped Oregon's scorers
with 19 points and Moore and
Johnson contributed 14 apiece.
Ted Werner led the Cougars
with 16 and Bvron Vadset added
10.
Saturday, UO 58,
WSU 44
The following night it was pret
ty much the same story with the
Webfoots taking and early lead
and maintaining it throughout the
game.
Although both teams were pret
ty much on the cold side, it was
a case of the Ducks being able to
hit a little more often than did
the Cougars.
Belko wasn’t as impressed with
the team’s performance Saturday
as he was after Friday’s game but
said that part of the letdown
might be attributed to the fact
that several of the players got up
set stomachs from the food they
bad eaten in Pullman. As a result,
they weren't quite up to par.
Moore led the Ducks with 21
points and 9 rebounds. Jones
chipped in 14 counters.
Jim Walton paced the losers
with 15 points and Vadset again
took runner-up honors with 14.
