Suggestion that Scott Farms would be an ideal site for the 1966 event was advanced last spring, when it became known the OPA was seeking possible locations in Huron. Following Subsequent discussions, Mr. Scott agreed to make facilities available. -Referring to the OPA deci- sion, Mr. Scott said Wednesday he was happy to know that the match was coming to the .
