It's been short and amazing
career for tall and amazing Bill
Russell, whose talents with the
ball have led the Boston Celtics
to six consecutive Eastern Di-
vision championships in the
National Basketball Association
The 6-foot-10, two-tine MIA
most valuable player scored %
points yesterday as the Celtics
whipped the Syracuse Mats,
1l0-l06, and wrapped up East
err title No. 6-all six since
Russell joined the club for the
1861 season.
In the half-dozen years since
Russell, who became a two
time All-America at the Uni
versity Of San Francisco, came
to Boston. the Celtics have gone
to the final of the MIA playoft
every season.
Lost in 1858
They lost once. Russell was
injured when the st. Louis
Hawks took the title from the
Celtics in 1858. With that one
exception Boston has been un-
beatable since he took his place
in the starting lineup.
The Celtics' victory over the
Mats gave them an 11-game
bulge in the lost column on the
runnerup Philadelphia Warri-
ors. who lost, 149-135, to the
New York Knickerbockers de-
spite Wilt Chamberlain's st.
point performance.
In other games, the Los

NEW YORK, Feb. 26 (AP).-
The Amateur Athletic Union,
l. in a struggle with the National
Collegiate Athletic Association
over administration of ath-
letics, has offered the NCAA
equal representation on three
of its key international sports
committees.
In a special executive session
yesterday the AAU offered the
NCAA equal representation on
its committees governing track
and field, basketball and gym
nastics-the three sports in
which the NCAA has threat
ened to set up separate fedora
lions.
The AAU also offered the
NCAA partial representation
on 10 other committees in an
effort to forestall a threatened
walkout by that group.
But the NCAA wasn't overly
impressed by the offer. Walter
Byers, NCAA executive director
said in Kansas City it will go
ahead with its plans for new
fsderations to govern the three
sports.
Invitation Still Out
"The AAU plan is substan-
TALLY the same as that outlined
at our meeting in Chicago Feb
ruary 11-12," Byers said. "It
doesn't embody the new adj
ministrative principles that we
believe are vital for reorgani-
cation of amateur sports adj
ministration.
THE NCAA and those Or
CARNATIONS associated with us
earnestly hope that the AAU
will accept our invitation to
meet in Chicago March As, at
which time new declarations
will be organized in mems bas-
ketball, track and field and
gymnastics.

Horse racing interest turns
back to the 3-year-olds this
week with the Flamingo at
Hialeah Park and the Santa
Anita Derby in California, the
big attractions Saturday. They
are $100,000-added events at
Ia miles.
Both are Wide-open affairs,
with Ridan. Dead Ahead, De-
cidely and Crimson Satan
generally rated the best of the
colts pointing for the Flamingo.
and Admiral's Voyage the class
of the undistinguished field
heading for the Derby at
Santa Anita.
Sir Gaylord was considered
to have a lock on the Flamiago
following three straight stake
triumphs, including a romping
decision in the Everglades 10
days ago. Dead Ahead, I'M
beaten in two starts last year
and the same number in 1862,
was the only one considered to
have a chance against the
Meadow Stable colt.
Ridan Likely Choice
Then Sir Gaylord came up
lame and trainers and owners
quickly reassessed his chances in
Hialeah's finale. Ridan, sound
ly beaten his last two outs after
stringing together eight
straight victories, likely will be
the choice although he finished
third BEND Sir Gaylord and
Decidedly in the Everglades and
then was placed fourth for In
reference.
Crimson Satan is listed in
the favorites group, if for no
other reason than because he
was the 196l-2-year-old cham
pion. So far he has not ap-
preached the form that car
ried him to victory in the
Garden State Stakes last fall.
Dead Ahead, a big colt from
Capt. Harry F. Guggenheim's
Cain Hoy Stable, was lightly
raced while growing to II
hands. He won his two starts,
both sprints, last year and then
opened the year with another
triumph in a dash. But the
last time out, two weeks ago,
he was asked to go 1-1/16 miles
on a grass course and won
handily.
Won't Give Weight
The 3-year-olds on the West
Coast have failed to produce
an outstanding performer. Ad-
miral's Voyage, who is expected
to be made a supplementary
entry today at a cost of $4,000,
was considered best of the
lot after winning two stakes,
but he was beaten by Doc
Jocoy and Royal Attack in the
recent San Felipe at Santa
Anita.
However. Saturday. he will
not be asked to give weight

The stately, sophisticated
lady, moving with great calm
ness, smashed the whole Sec
ton Of the bill and not a trace
of it remains.
For a time it had rested at
the bottom of the House For
eign Aid bill. 1t seemed harm
less enough. It would have di-
rected that two members from
both the House and Senate
Foreign Relations Committees
attend conferences of the In
terparliamentary Union.
The Union was set UP as far
back as 1889. 1t IS sort of an
international debating society,
virtually powerless. 1t brings
together elected representatives
from 81 MISUNDERSTANDING a
flock of Russians-who, with
meetings and resolutions, talk
to one another about keeping
the peace and a number of
other things. Sessions are US
ually held at some delightful
spot on the globe and often
while Congress is in session in
Washington in heat.
Legislators In Dark
Most Congressman are at
least dimly aware Of the Union.
They are also aware that the
Congress of the United States
dispatches a delegation of its
members to the meetings Of the
Union.
The section Of the bill, then,
would merely have assured
representation in the delegation
OF members Of the two Foreign
Affairs Committees who are
supposed to know a lot about
foreign affairs.
But Katharine Price Collier
st. George, an attractive widow
and effective Republican Rep
resentative from Tuxedo, N. Y,
handling her axe like a gilded
fly swatter, struck down the
section.
She carefully explained to
members Of the House that
they were all members of the
Union whether they knew it
or not. The Union, she said.
was the one place where the
elected Of all nations could
talk together without being
bothered by appointed diplo-
mats and bureaucrats. Every
member Of Congress, by virtue
OF his election, has a right to
attend the meetings.
Interpretive Report
There is no committee of
this House." she said, land
there is no committee of the
Senate which can decide who
shall go and who shall not 60.
We are all equals"
She did not think, she ended,
that the Foreign Affairs Com
mittee had any right to insist
that 1t be represented.
Further debate on the amend
ment to strike out the section,
as well as a conversation with
Mrs. st. George, reveal that
some Congressman have diff
Guilty attending the meetings of
the Union.
While people like Represent
alive Gross, Republican Of Iowa,
crudely calls the trips to con-
ferences nothing more than g.
plush junket, others never get
the opportunity to find out for
themselves. They can't get on

"A GOOD MANY years ago, when could still see Iremem
Der day when had an errand downtown. caught
streetcar, which pretty well filed The seats were
the long Ones we all faced one another as well as the
weather. 1t Damp dismal day and imagined every
going to work. but seemed happy about it
Then the miracle "a woman got on the car with
baby about year old. little blond baby all smiles and
bounce and full of ggges, and do you know that baby
put a show! She cIapped her hands with pattycakc,
laughed and bounced up and down and with that bit of
sunshine no could feel dismal Soon everyone was
laughing and joining the baby in happiness.
Joy is infectious. real shot in the arm as it were,
and we all benefited laughing and talking like old friends
Finally old tOugh-lOOking man, who looked as if he
had never smiled turned to all of us and said We folks
thought needed drink but this Kid sure has checred
up" The waved at the baby and she waved back
Many times since | have thought of that picture It
has given life and meaning to the words "AndG EsEe
child shall lead them"
