shock tonight when informed they
would not be allowed to use their

The decision to bar clubs of this ma

consequence all the Americans and
few of the British contestants will
probably spend part Of Sunday filing
these clubs. to make them conform
with the requirements. The Ameri-
cans were plainly troubled by the
decision. but declared that 1t would
not interfere with the achievement
of their ambitions.
