It seemed on the face of things
that the colleges had taken a lick
ing in their tiff with the AAU.
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.

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.”

THE UNKNOWN SL
Early dawn at Cape Canaveral ...
and out of the flaming 1 roar a finger
of science probes the unknown.
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.

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.
