March 12. The International Olympic Committee’s executive commission will meet in Lausanne on April 20 and 21 to discuss the crisis over South African participation in the Mexico Games.
A spokesman for the 1.0. C. said today the dates had been fixed after telephone consultations with the 1.0. C. president (Mr Avery Brundage) in Chicago. The executive cannot veto South African participation but can recommend a plenary session to discuss the matter.
