Senate may step in on AAU-NCAA dispute

MOOSE LODGE DANCE Saturday, Feb. 3 Music by Morlan Band 9:30 p.m.-1:30 a.m. Members Only

WASHINGTON UPI — The U.S. Senate was prepared to enact federal legislation to insure the co-operation of the Amateur Athletic Union AAU and the National Collegiate Athletic Association NCAA should the two governing bodies not accept as binding the program set forth Thursday by a federal arbitration board. The two feuding bodies have been given until Feb. 10 to announce their intentions to chairman Warren G. Magnuson, D-Wash., of the Senate Commerce Committee. If the board’s recommendations were rejected, warned Magnuson, the committee will consider enacting the proposal into law. "We’ve got to get ready and field some athletes for the Olympics,” he said. TTie board’s report, which laid down a six-point, five-year track and field peace program, would enpower the AAU to sanction all U.S. meets except those limited strictly to American students. The AAU, however, must accept without question assurances from the NCAA that open competition under its sponsor-

ship is meeting AAU standards. Under these arrangements, both the AAU and the U.S. Track and Field Federation, an arm of the NCAA, will conduct and sanction open meets. Ac-

“That’s what we’ve been fighting for.” Walter Byers, executive director of the NCAA, was sharply critical of the board's report. He told Theodore W. Kneel,

"There will be the same discipllnary atmosphere. Mr. Bengtson will rule with an iron hand He’s tough.” In 1959 when he came to Green Bay from the San Francisco 49ers, Lombardi expected Bengtson to shore up what was then the weakest defense in the NFL. How well he did the job can be demonstrated by the fact that the Packers, in the past six years, have never ranked low’er than third defensively in the league. A native of St. Paul, Minn., Bengtson was an All-America tackle at the University of Minnesota in 1933 and 1934. He coached for the University of Missouri, and the San Francisco 49ers, before joining the Pack-
