Fitzpatrick said similar pro-

from Crisler. He said 1t was
intended as q means Of side

Any Ruling by AAU

BY The Assoeiutsd Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-Bob
Richards, one Of the United
States best prospects in the
1866 olympic Games. was under
investigation by the Amateur
Athletic Union today, but he said
he would abide by any decision
the AAU made In order to pre-
serve his amateur status.
Richards, the countryss No. ]
pole vaulter, got into difficulty
after the "This Is Your Life"
television program Wednesday
night. At the end of the pro-
gram he was given several gifts.
including a dummy set Of keys
to an automobile.
AAU officials Immediately be-
came alarmed and Dan Ferris,
secretary-treasurer of the or
ganization, said he wired Larry
Houston, chairman Of the Rules
Committee Of the Southern Pa
cif1c AAU:
Attention has been called to
q TV program in which Bobby
Richards received an automo-
bile. Assume you are looking
into It,"
The surprised Richards, pastor
of the Church of the Brethren

caught right in the middle.

be happy to comply" he said. II

the pole vault in the 1852 Olym-

Richards, when he appeared
lat the program, did not know 1t

At the end. the first question he
asked was: Would his gifts en-
danger his amateur standing?
He was assured that his ap-
pearance had been approved by
an official Of the Southern

was q misunderstanding. The

made no mention Of accepting
