Douglas MacArthur reiter ating his stand that the Amateur Athletic Union has sole sanction ing power in open meets and the L'STFF continuing its demands for approval of the other side of the disc. .MacArthur again attempted to lear up any misunderstanding on his March 12 communique with a statement Thursday that "open meets arc under the sole sanc tioning power of the Amateur Athletic Union. Such meets do not require the sanction of the Na tional Collegiate Athletic Associ ation, the United States Track and Field Federation or affiliated groups."

Mount Shasta was elite to nail down only two hits in losing to Dunsmuir and Bill Marske last week, 3-1, Marske allowed only two hits while the Dunsmuir team tagged Jim Lemos for 11. The other game found Weed dropping Happy Camp, 6-3, behind the six-hit pitching Job of Dave Lemos. Coach Ron Owings probably will open the game with Jim Keller, former Oregon Tech star, on the mound.
