Brundage Warns of Sterner Measures Over Pro Sports
IOC President Avery Brundage of Chicago warned that if the anti pro Olympic pledge proves ineffective, sterner measures may follow. He backed the pledge and said sports used as a stepping stone to professional ranks could be dropped from the Olympic schedule after 1956. He noted the pledge clarifies long standing amateur rules and is studying a protest lodged by the U S Olympic Committee.
