The revamped Senators, hoping
to create more of a disturbance
in the American League this sea-
son than last, will be on display
tonight at Griffith Stadium when
they confront the World Cham
pion Brooklyn Dodgers at 8
O'Clock.
The game will be broadcast by
WWDC starting at 1855.
The team arrived in style
today. Back from the South, the
Senators were paraded from
Union Station to the District
Building, where they were well
coined by Robert E. Mclaughlin,
president of the Board of Com
miSsionerS, and introduced by
Arch Mcdonald and Bob Wolff,
who broadcast the games. The
idea was to let the team know
they'll be supported, come what
may.
An entire new outfield will be
exhibited by the Washington
club, whose prospective lineup
has jelled a bit after weeks of
painful experimentation. Dick
Tettelbach, Yale grad, plucked

called me yesterday and told me
that he planned to have Landy

Il explained to him that he
had better wait, that these
things had to be handled prop
erly. He told me he couldn't
wait. that he had to make the
announcement Immediately.
For Landy to run in this
country, the request for an in
vitation first must be made with
the district association of the
AAU-ln this case the Southern
Pacific Association for Los An
geles and the Central California
Association for Fresno.
Then the district association
contacts the central Office here
and the invitation is issued to
the proper authorities in Aus
tralia. There is never any deal
ing with the individual direct.
That, in itself, is a violation
of the international rules. Nor
mally, when a matter like this
is tried to be pushed through
privately, We simply don't grant
sanction.
In Landy's case. think we
would be charitable. If the
proper measures are taken, I'm
sure Landy would be approved.
But there is little time left"

NEW YORK. April IL (P.-
Red tape threatened today to
snarl John Landy's plans to
run two races in the United
States next month.
+ Dan Ferris, secretary treas
urer of the Amateur Athletic
Union. said today the great Aus
tralian miller had broken inter-
national amateur rules in ac-
cepting a private invitation to
compete in this country.
! Landy. who holds the world
record of 1858 for the mile, has
broken the 4-minute mile four
times. No one has run the mile
in under 4 minutes on Amer
lean soil. The closest was Yves
Santee's 4:00.5.
. The Australian miller said in
Melbourne earlier today that
he would run at Los Angeles
May 5 and in the West Coast
Relays in Fresno May IL.
. These things have to be done
through channels" Ferris said.
II haven't been asked to issue
an invitation except by a West
Coast publicity man. Further
more, the Fresno meet has no
sanction with the AAU."
In Melbourne, told of Ferris
statement, Landy said: IF there
is any doubt about my status for
running in America next month
definitely will not be a starter. :"
But Hugh Weir, Australian
AAU chairman ana a represent
tative of the Australian Olympic
Committee, said he would see
that Landy got a chance to run
in the United States.
"All we want is a cable from
Ferris asking permission for
Landy TO compete and it will
be granted" Weir added

Venturi Says
Remarks Were
Misunderstood

SAN FRANCISCO, April II (P).
Ken Ventura, young San Fran
cisco amateur who blew a four
stroke lead to lose the Masters
golf tournament, says he is sorry
he said anything at all when he
came home because his remarks
were certainly misunderstood"
Ventura denied that he had
criticized other players or officials
of the tournament which ended
Sunday at Augusta. Ga.
Jackie Burke's victory was a
great achievement" Ventura said
in statement to the Associated
Press. Burke shot a final II to
total 289 while Ventura faded to
an 80 for 200.
Denies Quote on Souchak
Il would like to deny the report
that I said Mike Souchak, Burke's
playing partner, was helping him
read the greens and select clubs
in the final round" Ventura
said What I did say was that
Souchak's friendly, moral sup
port undoubtedly helped Burke in
the final round. That was per-
fectly natural"
Ken added: 1T was a great
tournament; it was a pleasure to
play in it, and am happy that
/ played as we'll as l did"
Ventura said he still is puzzled
by the switch just before the last
round which paired him with
Sam Snead instead of Byron
Nelson, a long time friend and
mentor.

clubbing help or anything like
that, just someone friendly to
talk to.
