PARIS: May. 0.—-Despite the de-
claration by the Amateur Atheltic
Union of the United States that he
cannot compete abroad. Charley
Paddock. American sprinter end
world's record holder. intends to take
part in the international collegiate
track meet here this week. _
This was definitely stated today
both by Paddock end the French
General Association of Students. The
association said that if Paddock broke
any records the new marks would
be officially recognised by the Inter-
national Federation of Students, un-
der the direction of which the meet is
being held.
Paddock declared the A. A. U. had
no right to attempt to prevent his
participation in the meet. it was
purely an international students' af-
fair. he insisted. and in no way with-
in the jurisdiction of the A. A. U.
"I went to make it celar." said Pad-
dock. “that I am not defying the A.
A. U.'s ruling. as it alleges. I am
not a member of the A. A. U. and I
have never asked its permission to
Melptte. since it has nothing to
say concerning college meets.
"I have odlcial sanction from the
National Collegiate Atheltic Asso-
ciation. which is a charter member of
the international Confederation of
Students. and also from the Univer-
sity of Southern California.
