of IOC officials and to welcomes
from various groups. But it will
get a thorough hearing at the
Congress.
IOC President Avery Brundage
of the United States said the group
would "thoroughly Investigate"
Squaw Valley and the delegation
will have to answer these four
questions:
1. "What exactly will the games
cost?"
2. "Who will provide the
money?"
3. "When will it be coming?"
4. "What organizations will be
in charge of preparing ghe ven
ues?" Alex Cushing, temporary leader
of the 15-man California group
which arrived here Saturday night
said his group can answer those
queries "without any trouble at
all." He emphasized that Squaw
Valley already has been awarded
the 1960 games and his delegation
is here merely to answer ques
tions that will allay all doubts and
"learn how to organize an Olym
piad." "The governor (Knight) has said
he will fly here at once if it ap
pears that any difficulties are
arising in the confirmation of
Squaw Valley as the 1960 winter
games site." said Cushing, adding
that Knight s presence "may not
be necessary once we explain to
the Olympic Committee that we
have everything under control.
Prentis Hale, president of the
Sauaw Valley organizing commit
tee, was scheduled to arrive here
today to take over leadership ol
the delegation from Owning.
Cushing and Brundage conferred
yesterday and Cushing said they
agreed that IOCA discussion of the
question would not take place at
least until Wednesday.
