NEW YORK (LPIi - The AAU
NCAA controversy sounded like
an oft-repeated record today, with
Gen. 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."
William Russell, president of the
USTFF. said in Houston that

The .Medo-Bels will attempt to gel Into the winning column
of the Northern Calilornia Semi-Pro Baseball League Saturday
night when they take on Mount Shasta at Dunsmuir at 8 p.m. .
The team wilt meet Saturday afternoon af 5 o'clock at
the Sunrise parking lot.
This will be the second round for each (earn. The Medo
Bels were surprised by Scott Valley and diminutive Jiggs Sage
under the lights last Saturday night, 7-3, Sage held the Medo
Bels to eight hits and got 12 off loser Bill Mansfield despite
20 strikeouts.
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. Dave Saks,
who didn't arrive in time for the game last Saturday, should
be ready to receive for the Medo-Bels tn this one. Don Gresdel
will be at first, Dave Slgado at second, Owings at short, Don
Dexter at third and Kay Taylor, Blake iriggs and John Bianchi
in the outfield. Utility men will be Marv Kdwards and Bob Yunck.
Bill Mansfield will be ready to relieve Keller and Griggs
also does some relief work as does Kdwards.
This game ts the only one in the league Saturday. There are
two games slated Sunday. Dunsmuir will be at Weed and Happy
Camp goes to Scott Valley.

"The key issue. Russell said,

U.S. team possible for the July

This is the first attempt of this
sort for the KBAA. They have
chartered a Greyhound bus to car

Demetrakos, president of the
KBAA, and Bob Moore, one of
the board members. Should any
