Stagg Still A Battler At Century
Amos Alonzo Stagg, turning 100, appears at a San Francisco event with help from nurses and family. Despite nearly blind cataracts and a frail frame, the former coach remains mentally alert at times as he greets old friends and heroes including Gov. Edmund G. Brown and former players.

NCAA and AAU power struggle in amateur athletics
The NCAA seeks control of amateur athletics and forms federations in track and field, basketball, and gymnastics after four failed talks with the AAU, which has run the system for 75 years. The ICOC backs the AAU, jeopardizing NCAA domination. Olympic rules now restrict amateur status to collegians paying their way, further stirring the dispute.
