Dellinger proved he had plenty left by running the final 880 in 2:04.8, and the last quarter in 59.3. Little Max Truex. who has a 9:01.5 to his credit, was expected to set a fast pace and give Deliinger a tough fight, but Truex failed to set the pace and finished only third in the race. The slow first mile elimi nated all chances of Dellinger breaking the NCAA record of 8:57.7 or the Coast mark of 9:02. 6. Oregon's mile relay of Gordon Dfthlquist. Dave Talbot.
