(, FEBRUARY 22, '1967 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAV.P QVVVV ~, FEBRUARY 22, 1967 TIlE MICHIGAN DAILY D A fyE' at'V'%1 v AAU Reinstates All Foreign Cindermen Kheel Denies Hearing Request N U Eyes Dye as Athletic Director NEW YORK (M)-The Amateur Athletic Union, in a swift turn- about, lifted the suspension of 11 foreign collegiate athletes yester- day and announced that steps were being taken to make all for- eign students eligible for author- ized track and field competition in the United States. This would include both AAU- sanctioned meets and closed events sponsored by the rival U.S. Track and Field Federation, Col. Don Hull, executive director of the AAU, said. The action was taken before at- torney Theodore Kneel, chairman of the four-man Sports Arbitra- tion Panel set up by a Senate re- solution to arbitrate the AAU- USTFF dispute, turned down a, request by the USTFF for a hear- ing on the latest controversy. The newest furor developed when the AAU suspended the 11 foreign athletes for competing in a USTFF meet here Feb. 10 which lacked AAU sanction. The AAU insisted that no for- eign athlete can ,compete in a meet-whether he is a collegian or not-without the consent of the ruling athletic body in that coun- try. This, the AAU said, is the rule of the International Track and Field Federation. The USTFF, an organization made up largely of colleges and high schools, argued that no sanc- tion was needed for a purely school-or closed--meet. On Feb. 17, the arbitration panel, seeking a temporary settle- ment, ordered the USTFF to seek sanction for the meet retroactively and the AAU to grant that sanc- tion while lifting the suspension of the affected athletes. Nothing was done. Kheel called a press conference Tuesday at his mid-town office to announce that he felt the Feb. 17 order had been misunderstood by Father Wilfred Crowley, presi- dent and one of the organizers of the USTFF. Feeling the order was prejudi- cial to the over-all case being studied by the panel, Father Crow- ley, a priest in Los Altos, Calif., asked for a hearing. Kheel rejected the request and repeated his order that the USTPF apply by telegram immediately for saction of its Feb. 10 meet. At the same time, he asked the AAU to grant the sanction and lift the suspensions. The war between the AAU and the National Collegiate Athletic Association, which spawned the USTFF, has been going for six years. There have been periods of dictated peace-such as that priror to th 1964 Olympics in To- kyo.

J'Aeeuse!' NEW YORK (I)-The U.S. Track and Field Federation accused the Amateur Athletic Union of violat- ing anti-trust lawsand threatened an indemnity suit of at, least $100,000 last night in the latest development in the nation's track and field war. The Rev. Wilfred H. Crowley said the USTFF represented 90 per cent of the track and field in- terests in this country and the or- ganization saw no need to request sanction for its competitions. -- ,V an,,vuo 11G1Y~ ulwvtull igh nr, f-411G lan.
