General Douglas MacArthur settles dispute between the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) and the National Collegate Athletic Association (NCAA).

At request of President Kennedy, General Douglas MacArthur arbitrated a dispute between America's Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) and National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA).

The AAU, traditionally sole representative of the United States in international athletic matters, sought to continue as such.) Opening scenes show MacArthur and representatives of the AAU and NCAA being photographed by newsmen at his apartment at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, in New York City. They settle down at a conference table. MacArthur is seated at the head of the table. To his right are: Walter Byers, NCAA Executive Director; and Dr. Mason W. Cross, NCAA President.
