By BILL KING
CAMBRIDGE, Masa July 24
(dP) Sweden's G under, (the - won
der) Haegg, who admits that he 1
runs only fast enough to win, ran !
the fastest mile in American out
door track history 4:05.3 Sat
urday night to defeat ' Gil Dodds
of Boston by 10 yards ; and Bill
Hulse of New York by 15 before
a delirious crowd of . 10,000 at the
Harvard stadium. . ; . .. j -
Haegg, .who had - disappointed
his ; four previous American - au
diences, virtually han a front race
from start to finish to lower Glenn
Cunningham's ' American record,
made back in 1934, by 1.4 seconds.
By so doing, Haegg came within
seven-tenths of a second of his
own world mile record, which re
cently was lowered to 4:02.6 by
Arne Anderrson in Sweden.
Dodds. who overtook Hulse with
a terrific finishing drive early in
the last sixteenth's going, also fin
ished? under the Cunningham re
cord in 4:063 arid:; Hulse, who
gave Haegg a stiff argument dur
ing the first half of the gun lap,
was timed in 4:07.8.' y
The Swedish sensation was be
ing hotly pursued by Hulse when
he was caught at the 1500 meters
point in 3:47.8, a tenth of a second
under Walter Meal's American, re
cord for that distance. n . f;X,
With less than 100 yards lo go.
Hulse tired as Dodds came with
a furious rush that made absolute
ly no impression on the smooth
striding Swede. ; i ' '.'
When "Haegg first stepped on the
Harvard track for-a few jogs on
Wednesday, he described it as "the
best one I have seen in America.

Joyce probably , made a mistake

This was one stanza when Arm

belted Joyce all around the ring

with sweeping sidearm punches.
The fight was fairly close, nev

cheered the decision. It was the

George Traf ton, Joyce's mana
ger, said bu boy's jaw, broken by
Armstrong in the. first fight, ap
parently was broken midway in
the battle and he blamed this for
Willie tiring in the latter rounds.
