THE uninitiated, although ms impossible that anyone n’t have heard about the UCAA feud, Gen. MacArthur en the arbitrator in a dispute rose out of the NCAA’s de take over the operation of ur sports in the nation, the latest controversy, the ition was holding out for auctions. It claimed it had ght to sanction its athletes AAU meet.

And they did when it came to the point of sanctions. But out of the rhubarb the colleges won some important ground. It was established that the schools had full control of their athletes and could say where and when they were to compete. It also was established that the AAU would have no control whatever over the collegians even while they participated in an AAU meet. THE LATTER POINT came be cause the Federation asked Gen. MacArthur a question. It wanted to know if the collegians would have to join the AAU in order to compete in AAU meets. The gen eral said no sir. Thus any control the AAU might think it had was wiped away. What happened to bring about the trouble between the NCAA and AAU? Well, the NCAA, dissatis fied with the way the AAU was running things (mostly its han dling 1 of athletes), decided it should be the governing power of amateur sports in the U nited States. The AAU, which has been doing this chore for 75 years, said it wasn’t about to step down. Thus, each side has been contentious about every little point and it ap peared out of competition and thus give the nation a weak team to compete against the Russians and to go to the Olympics. But Gen. MacArthur had gotten that agreement out of the warring factions and he knew where to use it. EVERYONE ADMITS that there should be nothing left to stand in the way of producing the nation’s strongest team for international competition and the Olympics but they also admit that this is only a stop-gap- and that as soon as the last gun sounds in the Olympics the two bides will be right back feuding again. How it will be settled is anybody’s guess. SPORTS Ag Marksmen.

The Southwestern States Telephone Company Thursday, June 13, 1963 College Station, Texas Page 7 THE BATTALION MA Y PLA Y BASKETBALL Scfioolboy ' Shot Pet Whiz Will Join A&M Thinclads Phenomenal Randy Matson, the Pampa High School shot put and discus whiz, forsook offers from a host of colleges across the nation and signed a letter of intent with A&M Track Coach Charlie Thomas Tuesday. An All-District performer in both football and basketball, Matson ex pects to concentrate on track here. There is a possibility that he will play basketball. The 225-pounder holds state high school records in both weight events. He set a record for Texas in the college shot put Saturday as he defeated A&M’s Danny Rob erts with a 60-6 toss at the U. S. Track and Field Federation Nation als in Houston. MATSON HAS sailed the high school discus 199-4 and lobbed the high school shot more than 66 feet. Reportedly Matson was largely influenced in his choice of schools by Roberts, who entertained him during a visit here in May. At that time, when Matson was just coming into the limelight, Rob erts told fidends, “If he is going to break my records I’d rather see him do it at A&M.” But the big senior from Clevel and saw his Texas record crumble Saturday while the Panhandle lad was still competing out of Pampa. Roberts tossed the winning discus throw of 170-8 Saturday while Matson turned in the second best schoolboy effort with the college platter in history, 169-7to finish second. Matson’s 60-6 shot put throw was also the second best effort in his tory for a high school boy with the college sphere. Hank Foldberg, head football coach and athletic director at A&M, told a Bryan reporter, “We are terrically pleased to have Randy. He’s a real fine boy and all-round excellent student. “We realize that he has got a whale of a future and we are going to encourage him in every way we can to do his best.” Baseball Twist Don Demeter, Philadelphia Phil lies third baseman,-does a little dance step as he goes after a grounder.

Man has never been content to live behind a curtain of mystery. He must seek . . . discover . . . explore. Nor is man’s soul less eager than his mind! For if we are meant each day to learn one more truth of our environ ment, we are meant, too, to learn one more truth of our Creator. There is hope that scientific probing can enrich our physical life; there is promise that religious searching will deepen our spiritual life. Tomorrow depends on every les son learned at Canaveral. But, to even greater degree, on every truth learned at Church. Copyright 1963, Keister Advertising Service, Inc., Strasburg. Va. I US ‘h pf ! if m II THE CHURCH FOR ALL... ALL FOR THE CHURCH The Church is the greatest fac tor on earth for the building of character and good citizenship. It is a storehouse of spiritual val ues. Without a strong Church, neither democracy nor civiliza tion can survive. There are four sound reasons why every person should attend services regularly and support the Church. They are: (1) For his own sake. (2) For his children’s sake. (3) For the sake of his community and nation. (4) For the sake of the Church itself, which needs his moral and material support. Plan to go to church regularly and read your Bible ^aily.
