 CAUSING TROUBLE
American Committee Will Not
 Recognize System

New York. June 1..--A clash be- tween American and French Olympic authorities over the system Of point scoring for the track and field cham pionships at Paris in July loomed to- day when Frederick W. Rubien, sec rctary of the American Olympic com- mittca, issued a statement declaring this country would not recognize the French decision to score events on the basis Of 10 points for first place, with the next five places graded from five points to one point. in order.
 The French committee, according to MT. Rubien, is not empowered 10 fix arbitrarily any point scoring system at all for the Olympics. He points cut that none has been provided for by international authorities in charge of the games but adds that so far as this country is concerned the win- ners in each event will be credited with five points, with three points for second, two for third and one for fourth, which is the recognized meth cd of scoring track and field events in the United States"
 Mir. Rubien is chairman Of the rules committee Of the international anna teur athletic federation, which in 1921 decided there would be no official point score in track and field events but that there was nothing to prevent each nation from scoring points &C., coriing 10 the system in vogue in their respective countries.
 J. s, Edstrom of Sweden, president of the ]. A. A. F., confirmed this. he asserted, in a recent statement char acterizing as unofficial the point SCOT ing system employed by the French for the Olympic winter sports. This system was the same es that an- nounced for the track and field con- tests
 Olympic officials here base their ob- jection 10 tho French system on the belief that it fayors countries which have few outstanding stars, such as Finland, Instead Of nations which may have bctter-balanced teams.
