AAU Dictum Defied By USTFF Officials
The USTFF opens its fourth national championship amid AAU threats of ineligibility for athletes unless AAU sanction is sought. The clash centers on AAU President Buck's bid to block NCAA backed events and affect selection for the U.S. team to face Russia in Los Angeles. Bob Timmons calls the AAU action unfair while star Jim Ryun competes.
