Action Asked To Forestall Another Conflict in Track MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON WEDNESDAY. .'ONE S. IMS By UARY KALE New totn iLirt iveuiielb L. (TukJ Wilson, presmem 01 uie b.o. Olympic cumuiniet: uau cudJiipion miler wun utauy juinea Gen. uuugui Macm lnur touay in aepionng tne latest outurea 01 Hostilities between uie jmCaA and tne wuson urged that MacAr thur call tne opposing siues toeiher "in uie very aear iu lue" to tureslau anoiner liacii "war" uiai wouiu wean-t-u uie U. a. team lur lis uual meet against itussia in Mos cow next month. The Olympic leader said in Chicago that the current dis pute "apparently has come out of a difierencc of inter pretation of Gen. MacArthur's March 12 ruling" when the iive-star general first medi ated the AAU-NCAA squabble over control of track meets. Beatty asked the warring factions to discontinue their feud because "it would be a shame if this summer in Mos cow the men's track and field team of Russia defeated the V. S. men's team for the first time." The latest eruption was caused by the Eastern Collegi ate Athletic conference (ECAC) announcement Mon day that member schools should not participate in AAU-sanctioned track meets unless sponsors of these events obtained sanctions from the U.S. Track and Field federa tion, a wing of the NCAA. This immediately produced an outburst from MacArthur, since a new war could prevent NCAA athletes from compet ing in the AAU championships at St. Louis June 21-22. With out USTFF sanction, many of the nation's outstanding col lege track stars .would shun the event that selects mem bers for the meeting against Russia in Moscow. "I am reluctant to believe that either of these groups, di rectly or indirectly, intend to abrogate their given word to the detriment of their country and the athletes whose activ ities they control," MacArthur said in a statement that urged a halt to the new flareup. Angry AAU officials charged the NCAA with re neging on the agreement that MacArthur hammered out early this year. The AAU maintained that MacArthur's ruling under this agreement gave it sole sanc tioning power in the United States for open track and field competition. Some NCAA officials, how ever, never accepted that edict because it failed to grant the USTFF's proposal for dual track meet sanctions. r ' '-A I -.4 I I SPORTS I WW Womens' Golf Rogue Valley Women's Golf association will play hostess on Thursday, June 6, at Rogue Valley Country club to the lady golfers from Klam ath Falls, Del Norte, Bayside and Baywood.

(UP1) Attention Called To Mailers in Area The Medford Chamber of Commerce has called atten tion to the flood of mailers from Western States Claim Adjusters offering name brand coffee at reduced rates per case and detergent and soap at reduced rates. A check of prices noted in the mailers, according to Don McNeil, manager of the cham ber, has been made by the Los Angeles Better Business Bureau.

The request grew out of the agency's recent stock market study, the most intensive since the investigation which fol lowed the 1929 crash. Among other things, the SEC proposed tighter control and more rigid policing of se curities not listed with any of the major stock exchanges. These firms also would be required to disclose financial information and would be subject to other regulations now applicable only to ex change members.

Coach Bill Bow rrmin announced Tuesday. NCAA hurdles champion Jer-lthe tcctcd from being caught una wares by sudden changes in distribution plans for new stocks. i SEC Chairman William L. Cary, in a letter accompany ing the legislative package, said the recommendations stressed "those measures which both the commission and the securities industry re gard as constructive and vi tally needed." He said they would "mate rially increase existing inves tor protection, and thus will maintain and enhance inves tor confidence." Cary said he did not know whether the securities nidus try "as a whole will support our proposals." But he said they had the endorsement of leaders of major securities organizations. He said that requiring over- the-counter firms to disclose financial information "will greatly mitigate numerous problems and abuses, includ ing improper selling practices, irresponsible investment ad vice and erratic 'after mar kets' for new Issues." The SEC made these other I recommendations aimed at closer regulation of unlisted stocks: ' -Provisions in the exchange act intended to prevent com-1 pany "insiders" from using j their positions for speculative purposes would be extended to the over-the-counter com-, panies. j -Persons in the securities business who arc mombcrs of the boards of directors of un- t listed firms would be required j to file reports with the SEC covering their activities. The SEC would be allow ed to suspend summarily over-the-counter trading In any se curity for a 10-day period. It now has this power over listed securities. The SEC said present laws do not provide "an adequate basis for establishing reason able controls over the quali fications of those who seek to enter the securities busi ness."
