But the NCAA has prohibited col-lege athletes from participi ting in AAU meets under threat of stripping them oi their scholarships. NCAA schools, which supply most of the athletes for track and similar events, maintain they should have control over meets in which collegians volving cither organization were made, it is my feeling that through improved understanding of our mutual concerns, a greater spirit, of cooperation may develop." Kelly said he agreed with Kamers' statement and added: "Things are looking up. I am optimistic for better relations in the future. Kelly (jointed out that even if he and.

Ramcr had reached personal agreement on a to the NCAA-AAU feud, each would have had to go lack to his respective organization for approval. "We had a thorough discussion of our problems," said Kelly, a onetime Olympic gold medal winner in sculling. "1 think it was the spirit and intention of everyone present to try to find some basis for agreement. Joining Ramer, faculty chairman of athletics at the University of Tennessee, in the talks with Kelly and other AAU officials were Charles inas, assistant NCAA executive director, and Bob Woodruff, Tennessee athletic director and a member of the U.S. Olympic Committee.

In addition to Kelly, the AAU was represented by Secretary Richard Hawkins and Ollan Cassell, assistant executive director. Kelly sought the meeting with the NCAA officials in an effort to try to resolve the bitter hassle between the two groups over administration of amateur athletics in the United Stales. The NCAA-AAU feud centers on which group shall control track meets and other amateur athletic events. KNOXVILLE, Tenn.

SP Kenney. Matnwnn Girls Win in Plavoff MATAWAN Matawan High School won the opener of the Shore Conference Girl's Softball League playoffs downing Brick, 14-4, yesterday. Undefeated Sheri Anderson won her third game of the year and had plenty of help from Phyllis Sanders who went 4-for-4 with two runs and two RBIs, and Candi Klein who had four RBI. Jo Lynn Simone had two hits for Brick and two of their four runs. Jackson JV Wins JACKSON TOWNSHIP -Jackson Township High School defeated Howell in jay-vee baseball, 9-6, yesterday.

Rick Payntor was the winning pitcher and Bobby McGce drove in five runs. Salt Lake and it really slows down our running game," said Ifluie Dampier, who has been instrumental in all three Kentucky victories. "We get. tired quickly and the Stars take advantage of that and thev start running. Pretty soon we're down by 10 or 15 points nnd trying to play catch up." Dampier scored only 19 points in the three Salt Palace games but hit 78 in the three in Louisville.

His splurges have coincided with the condition of Merv Jackson's left knee. The Utah guard has tendonitis and played only 19 minutes Saturday. Jackson, noted for his defensive ability against Dampier and the Colonels' Darcl a i will play tonight, the Stars said The winner's purse Is expected to be about $5,000 per man, the losers will get about $1,000 each. Retarded heat in 58.0 Children, coached but didn't place syndicate. Meanwhile, it was reported that the Venezuelan government was interested in buying the horse to spur interest in breeding in the South American nation.

Baptista, a Caracas businessman, said he would have to retain four shares in any syndication, keep any earnings from the Belmont Stakes on June 5, with the horse running under the original ownership in the Belmont. With a chance to become the first Triple Crown winner since Citation in 1948, Canonero II has scared off quite a bit of opposition for the final leg at Belmont. Jim runner-up in the Derby and third in the Preakness, appears to be the only certain repeater from the previously beaten fields. Eastern Fleet, runner-up by IVz lengths in the Preakness as Canonero II set a track record of 1:54 for 1 316 miles, is still a question mark. Trainer Reggie Cornell said Eastern Fleet would start in the Jersey Derby on Memorial Day, but would keep his horse ready for the Belmont "in case something happens." Other possibilities for the Belmont include Good Behaving, who would be an entry with Jim French for trainer Johnny Campo.

Bold Reasoning, Run The Gantlet and On Your Toes. Bold Reasoning, winner of the recent Withers, is unbeaten, while Run The Gantlet won the Garden State last year. On Your Toes, who equaled the Pimlico record of 1:42 for 1 116 miles last Wednesday, will race in the Survivor Stakes Saturday at the same distance. "He hasn't gone farther than a mile and a sixteenth." trainer Frank Whiteley said of On Your Toes. "But if he does all right Saturday, I'll give some thought to the Belmont.

He's also nominated to the Jersey Derby." AHA PLAYOFF Colonels SALT LAKE CITY. Utah 'fi The Kentucky Colonels have never won in Salt Lake City. Is it the 4.500-foot altitude, an extreme example of a homecourt advantage or is it just, a jinx? Whatever the problem, the Colonels must overcome it tonight when they face the Utah Stars in the seventh and final game of the American Basketball Association playoffs. 7h? tenms-both runners-up in their respective divisions during the regular season stand tied at three games npiece after Kentucky pulled out 105102 victory Saturday at Louisville.

BALTIMORE (AP) The offers for Canonero II continue to increase, while the quantity of his opposition keeps dwindling. A $4 million "bid for the yearling, surprise winner of the Kentucky Derby and Preakness, was reported yesterday at Pimlico.

"Do you could pay debt this asked. htink maybe we off the national way?" Samuels Mrs. Wallace had two $2 tickets on Canonero II which paid $12.80.

About 333,000 bettors brought the OTB's Preakness handle to more than $1.5 million, a spokesman said. This exceeded the OTB action on the Kentucky Derby May 1. Samuels said that negotiations would be under way this week with unions representing pari-mutuel clerks at Yonkers Raceway and Belmont Park in an effort to get OTB operations into the two metropolitan area tracks. "If we can't get in, we'll have to ask tlv stfitc per permission to set un our own pools." said Samuels.

Iv.il t'i re suit probably won't establish any clear superiority of either of these teams over the other. This scries has been much like the New York-Chicago semifinal and the opening round Boston-Montreal playoff.

Both of those showdowns also went to a decisive seventh game and could have gone cither way. Momentum hasn't meant a thing so far in the final round. Chicago won the first two games at home but the Canadiens bounced back to win the next, two at Montreal. Then the Hawks won the pivotal fifth game and the Canadiens' camp was jolted bv Henri Richard's verbal attack on Coach Al MacNeil, whom he called "incompetent," among other things. That was followed by threats on MacNeil's life and the coach was accompanied Homers By The Associated Press Vada Pinson, John Lowenstein and Jack Heidemann got together in the outfield Idst night and gave Washington's Tom McGraw a home run.

But homers also gave Cleveland the game. Pinson, the Indians' center fielder, left fielder Lowenstein and shortstop Heidemann collided as they chased McGraw's soft fly ball in the fourtJi inning. As they lay motionless, stunned by the impact, McGraw circled the bases for an insidc-the-park homer. Pinson received nine stitches for a cut cheek. Lowenstein and Heidemann were hospitalized for observation.

Roy White's two-run blast and a pair of run-scoring singles by Gene Michael paced the New York Yankees past Baltimore 6-3.
