ment denying published reports that
he had sustained the action of the
Amateur Athletic Union in disquali-
flying Charles Paddock, California

While it was inferred from his
statement that the N. A. A. F. might
side with the National Collegiate
Athletic association, which has
backed Paddock in his defiance of
the A. A. u, it was emphasized by
Elwood s. Brown, executive officer
of the federation, that no official
action had been taken as yet.
Asked whether the federation
might 90 on record. however. either
on theSide of the N. c. A. A. or the
