Busts World
Hurdle Mark
Los Angeles (U.R) Amer
ica's superbly conditioned ath
letes served notice they are
ready to defend their Olympic
laurels after a record - shatter
ing first-day of trials that result
ed Friday night in these as
tounding performances:
1. (Charlie Dumas, of Comp
ton college (Calif.), shattered the
once Invincible seven- foot bar
rier in the high jump with an
official leap of 7 ft. Vz in., one
Lm Angeles (U.R) Thi
strain of an injured leg proved
too much for Duke track star
Dave Sime in the Olympic
trials here Friday. He fell less
than 10 yards from the start
ing blocks in the 100-meter
trials and the expected duel
between Sime and Texas'
Bobby Morrow failed to ma
terialize. Sime's leg was in
jured two weeks ago at Berkeley-
of two new world's records set
as America put together its team
for the 1956 Olympic games at
Melbourne in November-Decen
ber.
2. Glenn Davis, of Ohio State
broke the world's 400-meter
hurdles mark by nine-tenths of
a second with a time of 49.5
Against the 1953 world record of
50.4 set Yuriy Lituyev of Russia.
3. Bobby Morrow, of Abflejie
Christian, and Ira Murchison, of
the Army, both equalled the
world 100-meter dash record of
10.2 in separate preliminary
heats. Morrow won the finals in
10.3, followed by Murchison.
4. Parry O'Brien equalled his
own recognized world mark of
60 feet, 10 inches, in the shot-
put. Ha has a better mark of 61
ft. 4 inches up for approval.
5. Bill Dellinger, University
of Oregon, set a new American
mark of 14:26 in winning the
5,000-meter event, the old mark,
set in 1950 by Fred Wilt, was
14:26.8.
With nearly 40,000 pairs of
eyes on him, Dumas turned to
his coach, Herschel Smith, and
said:
"Coach, I'm ready."
Then he cleared the bar easily
and a roar from the crowd hit
like a slap against his ear.
Dumas, only 19 years old, is
a freshman at Compton col
lege. He stands 6 feet, IVi inches
and has been flirting with the
seven-foot mark since he was in
high school.
After the leap, he said:
"I felt real good. The field
and the weather were just right
and I knew the crowd was with
me. The competition was good,
too."
Regarding the competition, he
had that, all right. Vera Wilson
of Santa Clara, Calif., and little
(5-8) Phil Reavis, had cleared 6
ft. 9$ inches to tie for second.
The 400-meter hurdle race
was a thing of beauty to watch.
Davis and young Eddie South
ern, a University of Texas fresh
man, cleared the last hurdle as
one man. Then Davis barely out
sprinted his young foe to the
tape. Southern also broke the
world mark, being timed in 49.7.
Another outstanding perform
ance came in the broad jump,
where three men cleared the 25-
foot mark. John Bennett, of the
Army, took first .with a leap of
25 ft. 8V2 inches.
Other winners:
Hammer throw Al Hall, Cor
nell, 197 ft. TVs inches; javelin
throw Cy Young, San Francis-
, co Olympic club, 244 ft. 11 ins.
The disappointments were
Bud Held, the world record
holder, who failed by one inch
to qualify in the javelin for the
Olympic team; and Aubrey Lew
is, of Notre Dame, the NCAA
champion who stumbled over the
last hurdle and failed to qualify
in the 400-meter hurdles.

Cardinal Hurler
Finds Cincinnati
Easy Pickings
By FRED DOWN
United Press Sports Writer
The homer - happy Cincinnati
Redlegs may look like the Na
tional League all star team to
the fans but they're easy pick
ings for Vinegar Bend Mizell.
The St. Louis Cardinals' fire
balling southpaw beat the Red-
legs for the fourth straight time
with a four-hit, 4-1 triumph Fri
day night and moved the Red
birds to within three games of
first place. The loss snapped the
rceaiegs five - game winning
streak and prevented them from
taking over the lead from the
Milwaukee Braves, who bowed,
8-4, to the Chicago Cubs.
Mizell's success against the
Redlegs he's yielded oniy
nine runs in the four victories
should also make it easy for
American League all-star Man
ager Casey Stengel to choose his
starter for the July 10 clasic.
Billy Pierce is the fast curve
baller of Mizell's type and Fri
day night scored his seventh
straight win and 12th of the
year as the Chicago White Sox
split a doubleheader with the
Cleveland Indians.
Mizell, only Cardinal pitcher
to beat the Redlegs this season,
now has an overall 8-5 record.
Nuxhall'a mark is 5-7 and he's
0-2 versus the Cardinals.

fence scoring Dick Young from

tory over the Vancouver Moun
ties here Friday night. It was
Portland's fourth consecutive

Young from first base to end
the game, 6-5, with none out.

ning pitcher. Jim McDonald

LONDON FOG FAILS !
Hollywood (U.R) Since the j

enough, artificial fog had to be

In Olympics
Los Angeles (U.R) The Uni
versity of Oregon's Bill Dellin
ger Friday set a new American
record in the 5000-meter race
to become tne first native Ore
gonian since 1932 to win a berth
on the United States Olympic
track and field team.
The lanky Oregonian ran the
distance at the Olympic trials
here in the record time of 14:26,
knocking 8-10 of a second off the
mark set by Fred Wilt in 1950.
The veteran Curt Stone, of the
New York Athletic Club, fin
ished second in 14:29, followed
by Max Truex of Southern Cali
fornia. Dick Hart, of Philadel
phia, was a poor fourth.
Dellinger was the first Ore
gonian to win a trip to the Olym
pics on the track and field team
since Ralph Hill made the trip
24 years ago. Dellinger is a grad
uate of Springfield high school
and plans to teach there this fall
after he returns from the Olym
pics in Australia.
In the early moments of the
race, Dellinger fell far back in
the strong field, as far as ninth
place. It was not until the 11th
lap that he moved into second
place behind Stone. When the
gun sounded the final turn Del
linger began to dominate the
race and sprinted to the finish
line with Truex and Stone fall
ing behind.
Another Oregon entrant in the
Olympic trials, Leo Long of
Nyssa, was off his better form
and placed 10th in the javelin
with a toss of only 215 feet,
5 V2 inches.

time of 6:19.9, besting the lake
record of 6:36.4 set by Harvard
in 1949.

bested the record although both
times were short of the Olympic
Games record of 5:56.7 set by
California in the 1948 games.

will row against the top-rated
college champion Cornell, the
Navy Admirals, Yale and Wis

Angling Starts
Today marked the opening of
the trout fishing season at Lake
of the Woods, popular summer
resort in Klamath county.
The lake was treated last Sep
tember to rid it of trash and
spiny rayed fish. All fish in the
lake, including some trout, were
"poisoned." Game men then
restocked the lake, rehabilitating
it as a trout fishery
While other lakes of the state
opened in April and May, the
trout season at Lake of the
Woods was delayed. Season will
close on October 7.
Treatment of the lake revealed
a tremendous amount of stunted
fish life. Nine or 10 varities of
fish were found. .
