The unavailability of the East

pressing problems. Jordan has
received permission from the
University to reserve lanes

standing-ruom only purposes.
As for the old Hayward track,
promoters and athletes alike art;
almost happy to see it go. The

three straight Olympic trials
(1972-80) slowly degenerated
and was the deciding factor in
not receiving the '88 trials,
awarded instead to In

Following the meet fans will
be invited to walk a lap around
the track, according to Iordan.
“1 don't see the 'it’s the end

track, but that won't change the
performances. It’s still the old
