TWELTE WEDfORD (REGOIf)
U.S. Athletes Shatter Records
During Two
By HAL WOOD
United Press Sports Writer
Los Angeles (U.R) The
Army's Lou Jones, pressed all
the way by Jim Lea on the
lightning-fast coliseum track, set
a world's record of 45.2 seconds
in the 400-meter race today at
the Olympic trials.
Concluding a record-shattering
two-day performance for
America's Olympic games ath
letes, Jones knocked two-tenths
of a second off his own world
wark just a few minutes after
a dead-heat finish in the 110
meter high hurdles between
Jack Davis and Lee Calhoun in
13.8 seconds.
These performances followed
yesterday's great show when the
seven-foot barrier was cracked
bv Charlie Dumas in the high
jump, and the world mark of
49.5 seconds in the 400-meter
hurdles equalled Glenn Davis.
Today's best show was the
high hurdles race. Jack Davis,
of Navy, and Calhoun, of North
Carolina college, came roaring
down the stretch shoulder-to-
shoulder to the roar of more
than 40,000 sun-drenched fans
in the stadium.
They cleared each hurdle to
gether and ran stride for stride
to the tape. Just before the
finish they both pushed out
their shoulders and chests in
identical style and that's the
way the camera clocked them
across the line. The judges de
liberated 30 minutes before call
ing it a dead heat.
In the 400-meter race, the
first four out of the five watches
caught Jones in 45.2 seconds
and the other had it at 45.3.
Lea was timed in 45.8 seconds
and Charlie Jenkins, of Vil
lanova, was third in 46.1. The
fourth-place finisher was J. W.
' Mashburn, of Oklahoma A & M,
in 46.5 All four go to the
Olympics in this event the
fourth man for the 1600-meter
relay team.
The 800-meter race went to
Tom Courtney, of the Army, as
he licked his arch rival, Arnie
Sowell, of Pittsburg, while set
ting a new American record.
Courtney put on a closing
burst of speed to outdistance
Sowell and Lou Spurrier of the
San Francisco Olympic club to
the tape and . was clocked in
1:46.4 four-tenths of a second
better than the old mark.
Far back in the field finish
ing in fifth place was the 31-year-old
Mai Whitfield, who
failed to make the Olympic
team after winning the 800
meter gold medtl in both 1948
and 1952. .
Sowell set the pace through
the first 600 meters. Then Whit
field, who had been running
second, made his bid for the
trip to Australia. He took the
lead, with Courtney and Spur
rier coming up, too. But the
veteran couldn't hold the pace
into the last 100 meters and
first Courtney, then Sowell,
Spurrier and Lang Stanley pass
ed him.
Rev. Bob Richards, the de
fending Olympic champion, won
the pole vault with a leap of
15 feet, one inch. George Mat
tos, of the Air Force was second
at 14 feet, ten inches. Three
men tied for third but because
of the least misses at lower
meights, Jim Graham, of Okla
homa A&M, who cleared 14 feet.
eight and one-half inches, was
given third. Bob Gutowski, of
Occidental, and Ron Morris, of
Southern California, who also
cleared 14 feet eight and one-

In the preliminary heats of

New York (U.R) Yama Ba
hama, who weighed the heaviest
of his career and scored his most
notable middleweight triumph
Friday night, surprised everyone
today by announcing, "I'm still
after a shot at the welterweight
title."
Strong, rangy Yama from the
island of Bimini, registered his
23rd straight victory on a decis
iye unanimous verdict over Gil
Turner of Philadelphia in their
TV-radio 10-rounder at Madison
Square garden.
"That's right," said Manager
Bobby Melnick today. "Yama is
after the welterweight title, not
the middleweight, in spite of the
fact that he weighed more than
Turner 154VS pounds to 154.
To challenge for the welter
crown one must pare down to
147 pounds, but Melnick said
23-year old Yama can do that
easily.

Better Hitting Hoped
In the Tuesday fray the Med
CP club will aim to do some
