Fast Track Awaits
AAU Championships
By HAL WOOD
United Press Sports Writer
Bakersfield, Calif. (U.R)
A crack field of 550 athletes,
pared down to their best battling
weight after workouts in 80
degree heat, go to the line to
night in the annual National
AAU Track and Field Cham
pionships. With many of the stars facing
their last chance to qualify for
the Olympic trials at Los An
geles next week-end, this meet
is expected to produce a record
smashing orgy that will just
about rewrite the AAU books.
Near-perfect weather is ex
pected to prevail and help the
muscle-men to new marks on a
track described by the athletes
themselves as the fastest in the
world.
While such men as Bobby Mor
row in tne sprints, ttev. rsoo
Richards in the pole vault; Lou
Jones and Jim Lea in the 400
meter run and Parry O'Brien in
the shot, will be on hand, Dave
Sime, the Duke flash, will be
noticeable by his absence.
Sime Resting
Sime pulled a leg muscle run
ning the 200-meter event at
Berkeley in the NCAA meet, and
has decided to sit out this com
petition. He already has quali
fied for the Olympic trials in the
100-meter event, finishing sec
ond to Morrow In that race in
the NCAA.
The first six finishers in each
event of the AAU meet will
qualify for the Olympic trials.
They will be added to six who
qualified from the NCAA, and
three who qualified from the
all-service meet.
So far this year, only two men
who won Gold Medals at the
1952 games for U. S. have qual
ified for the trials. They are
shot-putter O'Brien and hurd
ler Jack Davis both winning in
the all-service meet. Another
man. Milt Campbell has quali
fied for the trials in the hurdles
but he was on the 19b?. V. S
team as a decathlon man.
Among the 1952 Olympic stars
who will attempt qualifying
here in this two-day event are
Horace Ashenfelter in the
steeplechase, Richards in the
pole vault, and Fortune Gordien
in the discus.
There is one event on the card
here that actually is listed
the finals for making the U. S.
Olympic team. The men who
finished among the first three in
the 10,000 meter race probably
will be set for a trip to Aus
tralia. Favorite is Joe Tyler,
the Navy man who broke the
American record for the dis
tance recently.
Eight of the events on tonight's
card are finals, the rest set for
Saturday.
A crowd of 10,000 is expected
for the opening show, with a
full house of 20,000 for the finals.
