Russ Quint Threatens AAU Hold NEW YORK (L'PI) The U.S. Amateur' Athletic Union, already involved in a power battle on several fronts for control of Olympic athletes, laid itself wide open today as it prepared to entertain Rus sia's pro-typeb asketb aU team. The Soviet stars arrive 1 Monday for an eight-game i tour of theUnited States.

They i are a threatening aggregation headed by Viktor Zubkov, the i six foot, eight inch center who 1 has been their top player for the last two Olympics. This is a tipoff on how long the Soviet team has been play-ingntf-training as a unit and the reperisiojisjwilLbe4 tremenaousif they beat us at our own game. Which some sources hint! they might due to the fact that the U.S. is preparing to square off against the hoop-happy Russians with a team which definitely Isn't our best. The U.S.

team in this round ball road show will be composed of stars from A.A.U. teams. The A.A.U. probably could I contend that it is impossible, I during the eoflegiateyear, to i gather undergrads together for enough time to get in on this defense against the Russians. The opposite feeling is that the Russians should have been met only when the collegians were available; coaches have banded together and formed the National Basketball Federation which, they hope, will succeed in taking Olympic basketball control away from the A.A.U.

It is merely another in a series of fights in which the A.A.U. is involved. OAICLAHD E. 14th St. and 29th Ave.
