Irish Mile
Nabbed by
Ron Delany
Beats Ibbotson
In Clonliffe Go
DUBLIN un-Ireland's Ron De
lany who attends Villanova Col
lege near Philadelphia gave 15,000
homef olka somethlngto cheer
about Tuesday night when be won
the mile race in 4:07.5 at the Clon
liffe Harriers' International Meet.
Two English mllert were sec
ond and third la the field of
eight.,
Brian Bewson was second la
4:04.0, and Derek Ibbotson came
third in 4:08.5.
The crowd in the new Santry
Stadium on the outskirts of Dublin
went wild and many persons al
most mobbed the 23-year-old Irish
man who won the 1956 Olympic
games 1500 meters championship
at Melbourne.
"This victory gave me almost
as much pleasure as. when I won
the Olympic title," Delany said.
I know now much it meant to
Irish athletics that I won.
"I'm not disappointed la the
time because as in so many of
my races in the States I was
only interested In winning. But
this time it was even more important."
Delany was particularly happy
to defeat Ibbotson, who ran the
mile last July in London in 3:57.2.
In that race Delany's time was
3:58.8. However, international
track and field officials did not
ratify Ibbotson's mark when they
recognized 33 other world marks
in January.
England's International Cross
Country champion, Stan Eldon,
led at the start and was timed
with laps of 61, 64 and 65 sec
onds. After three quarters, Ibbot
son moved into the lead, followed
by Delany and Hewson, around
the final bend.
When Delany turned on his big
finish, the crowd was yelling with
excitement. Hewson tried in vain
to turn back the Irishman, and
said after finishing runnerup that
"he was too strong for me."
Immediately after the meet De
lany rushed to catch a 2 a.m.
plane back for the United States.
He is scheduled to run in two
races for Villanova on Thursday.

Land Says Paced 1 Mile Marks Should be AHoved f
MELBOURNE lA-The Inter
national Amateur Athletic Fed
eration will have to work out a
proper definition of a paced
mile, John Landy sad Tuesday.
The Australian star, holder of
the recognized world record for
the distance and now retired,
was Interviewed at his family's
farm, 126 miles south of Mel
bourne, and be posed the ques
tion: "Just what it the definition
of a paced mile?" .
The difficulty, which dates
back to 1654 when Roger Ban
nister first cracked the four
minute barrier and has been pe
riodically revived, popped ap
again whea Herb Elliott was
timed In 1:57.6 In the Coltsenm
Relays at Los Angeles last Fri
day. The best, time to date, still
nnofflcLal, is Derek Ibbotson's
J: 57.1
"There will always be trouble
over these miles until the fed
eration lays dowa a definite
rule," Landy added, "but how
re they going to arrive at that
definition. I don't know.
"Don't, please, for one minute,
think I'm casting any suspicions
boot Ibbotson's or Elliott's
times to safeguard my own rec
ord. "As far ai I'm concerned I've
finished with running and I'm
the ex-world record holder. I
think Derek's time should and
will be recognised. This will
make him fatter than any other
man, and any time between nay
1:58 and his 1:57.1 will be out.
And as for Herb's run last week,
from what I could make out I
thought he did most of the work
the real, hard work, at that.
"It seems that if anyone is in
front at any time of the race
apart from the actual winner it
could be said he was paced. It
is all right to say a runner
should go all out from the start
and remain in front, but how
many caa do it?
"Herb Elliott la a great run
ner and will be. even greater,
but he could not run In front
all the time. Any runner who
has to do that would be. Just
running himself into the ground."
"When Bannister made track
history with his 1:56.4 clocking,
he had -two admitted pacers in
Chris Brasher and Chris Chata
way, and although the IAAF 11ft-

MANHATTAN, Kan. in - Tex
Winter, Kansas State College bas
ketball coach, said Tuesday he
had decided not to consider a
coaching vacancy at the Univer
sity of Iowa.
Winter said he was interested in
the Iowa job but has decided to
stay at K-State.
Winter's name was among those
reported under'consideration as a
successor to the late Frank
(Bucky) O'Connor, Iowa coach
who was killed recently in an
automobile accident.
ed aa eyebrow at this situation
there was nothing in the book
against it
The British AAA passed a pac
ing rule before the IAAF had
a chance to act, and In 1956"
the IAAF adopted the same rule,
which stated that pacing was to
be "considered" In passing on
records. It also stated that run
ners who receive "apparently" -unfair
aid cannot make records.
In Elliott's case everyone con
cerned denied that Drew Dun
