First Olympic Competition Is Underway MELBOURNE, Australia (UP)— Politics and world tension were pushed aside here today for the first actual competition of Olympic athletes —a, pre-Olympic track and field carnival that featured four-minute milers but not the favored American and Russian teams. The U.S. squad apparently was not ready for racing yet, since it just arrived by plane Friday and was still in process of settling down. The Russians, who have been here longer, were playing their track cards close to their vests. They withdrew from practice at Olympic Park Friday, complaining about the condition of the turf at the high jump after their star high jumper, Igor Kaskarov, had failed to leap higher than six feet, six* inches — five inches below the best he has done at home. Even without the Russians, today's big track carnival at Puckapunyal Army Camp, about 60 miles from Melbourne, figured to be a brilliant show. The highlight, of course, was the mile matching two four-minute milers — Jim Bailey of Australia (3:58.7) and Chris Chataway of Britain (3:59.0) — against a blueribbon field that included several other stars who have been knocking on the four-minute door. Among them were Murray Halberg of New Zealand, Merv Lincoln of Australia, Chris Brasher of Britain, and Jerzy Chromich, Poland’s steeplechase star. A total of 13 nations were represented in the meet, the first major test of strength between the Olympic squads. Friday, Russia’s

Louisville Seeking Steelers' Franchise PITTSBURGH (UP)—The Pittsburgh Steelers, whose owners have proudly proclaimed they are all "Pittsburghers,” considered an offer today to move the club's National Football League franchise to Louisville, Ky. Arthur J. Rooney, head of the football club since it entered the National League in 1933, said the offer came from the Kentucky Fair and Exposition Center. The same offer already has been reacted by the Washington Redskins because their contract for use of Griffith Stadium in the capital still has four years to run. Rooney said he received the bid from Bill Henry, sports director of the Louisville Stadium. The Steelers’ president said he probably ‘will meet with the Louisville operators after studying the offer. Henry said the fair center would give the Steelers a rental rate of 6 per cent of the gate receipts. Twenty per cent of the receipts from parking and 100 per cent of the profits from all other concessions would go to the Steelers, .Henry’s telegram said. Henry said the Louisville Stadium now has a capacity of 22,000, but that it can be enlarged to 47,000 seats immediately. He also said “tremendous” parking areas are available. The Steelers now play their thome games at 34,000-seat Forbes Field, home of the Pittsburgh Pirates baseball team. They pay a rental of 15 per cent of the gate, pay the costs of cleaning up after games, and receive nothing from concessions. Rooney and his vice president, John R. McGinley, both are native Pittsburghers. The title of the team usually is underscored with “Owned by Pittsburghers.” Trade in a Good Town — Decani
