BIG TEN ACTION: Badgers Top Spartans By The Associated Press CHICAGO-The NCAA, openingr its 56th annual convention, yester- day was asked by its track coaches to take the initiative in formation of a new United States Track and # Field Federation. The petition, forwarded to NCAA! Executive Director Walter Byers, was another collegiate blow at theS long established AAU, which has been under fire by the collegiatet forces for some time. Byers, pointing out that the NCAA already has directed the special committee to form a Na- tional Basketball Federation, said the track coaches' proposal will go on the convention floor Friday. It was expected the NCAA's policy- making council would approve the track revolt against the AAU just as it did the basketball bolt. i Submits Petition The track petition was sub- mitted to the NCAA Executive Committee yesterday by Chick Werner, Penn State track coach and president of the National Col- legiate Track Coaches' Association (NCTCA). The proposal, adopted by a 485-7 vote, urges the creatio of a federation "representative of all constituent groups interested in the development of the sport in the United States and in interna- tional competition." Werner emphasized that the petition contemplated a federation which would embrace the AAU, but he stressed that no single group or organization would con- trol it. "It is the conviction of the NCTCA that national track and field matters should be determined by representative thinking and voting, rather than by AAU dic- tate," Werner said. Everybody Represented The new track federation, Byers explained, would include represen- tation from the high schools, col- leges, armed forces and AAU. "The track and field develop- ment is quite similar to that which took place in basketball," Byers said. "The NCAA at its meeting this week will determine what course the colleges and universities will follow." He hinted that the National Association of Gymnastics Coaches is preparing to ask for a similar action in that sport, but no formal petition has been received yet. The proposed basketball federa- tion calls for representation by five groups-colleges, high schools, armed forces, YMCA and AAU_ with no two groups, according to Byers, entitled to exercise control of the federation. OAKLAND, Calif.-The Oakland Tribune said yesterday that Presi- dent Kennedy has expressed deep concern over the fight between the AAU and NCAA. The fight could affect U.S. performance in future Olympic Games. The Tribune said Lawrence O'Brien, special assistant to the President, had reported Kennedy's concern to U.S. Senators Clair En- gle and Thomas Kuchel of Cali- fornia, who reported that the White House advised them it is delaying decision on a possible federal investigation until after Feb. 1.
