The talent will be plentiful, and if history repeats itself, there could be some real top marks set. Last year, Don Quame and Steve Wil liams blitzed to a world record 19.9 in the 200 meters. In 1974, when the meet was billed the Hayward Field Restora tion Meet, Prefontaine docked a 12:51.4 for an American three mile record. The 880 world record was also broken as Rick Wohlhli ter won in 1:44.1. Hurdler Rod Milbum was the star of the 1973 meet when it was first organized to raise funds for Hayward Field. The Olympic gold medalist tied Ns world record in the high hurdles and Dave Wottle ran the third fastest mile ever. This year s meet will have the same amount of quality, and the name wil stick. Last year’s meet was billed the Bill Bowerman Classic after the former Oregon coach. Three days before the meet began, however, Prefon taine was'kiMed in an auto acci dent near Hendricks Park. Pretontaine was a home-grown product from Coos Bay, and stilt holds American records at 2,000, 3,000, 5,000 and 10,000 meters and at three and six miles.
