(UPI) The United States had a chance to take a quick lead over Rus sia today in the opening session of their international dual track meet thanks to a schedule that listed five events which America has dominated in the past. While an overweight Wilma Ru dolph tries to make it four con secutive wins for America in the womens' 100 meters, the United States males will seek to main tain their superiority over Rus sia in the 100 meters, 110 meter hurdles, 400 meters and 400 me ter relay. Coach John Oelkers of the United States thinks that a world record might fall in the 400 me ter relay which will be handled by Hayes Jones, Bob Hayes, Ho mer Jones and Paul Drayton. And he was emanating confi dence while Gavriel Korobkov, the Russian coach, played it close to his ample chest. "I don't want to sound cocky," Oelkers said. "But I think we will win this meet. "I haven't seen the United States team," the genial Korob kov fenced. The Soviet coach also doubled as a diplomat, prom ising a Sacramento, Calif, house wife that he would deliver her written letters to Premier Khrushchev asking that her brother be released from prison. In other leading events today, Ralph Boston of the United States squared off against Igor Ter-Ov-ancsyan. who had leaped a world record 27 feet, three inches. But Ter-Ovanesyan only has taken one jump all week and spent the rest of the time under going heat treatments for a sore leg. "How is he?" smiled Korobkov. "He is all right. He has some sore muscles but that happens to every athlete at one time or an other."

He has wonderful hands," McNalley said. -"He might be something and he might not. We're willing to find out." The 28-year-old former three time All-America court star at La Salle College said he wouldn't leave Philadelphia because all his ties are here and he also has business interests in this city. "And I don't want to be away from my family for the six or seven months of t h e basketball season," he added.
