The Olympic 1500-meter champion smashed his own two-week old world indoor mark of 4:02.5 as he rambled to his 31st consecutive indoor mile triumph and his 37th straight indoor triumph in the Columbian mile. He almost gave it away when, with a lap and a half to go, Hungary's 2000-meter world record holder jumped on top to a 10-yard lead. But Delany moved in behind the hammering Hungarian and then nipped him at the tape as the crowd of 13,000 rocked the rafters at this Knights of Columbus meet. Rozsavolgyi himself bettered the two-week old mark as he was clocked in 4:01.8.

Fred Ear wood had 18 points and Gregg Big Ten Now Favors Rose Bowl Madison, Wis. -(LTD- The Big Tein voted Friday in favor of opening negotiations to re sume annual participation in the Rose Bowl football game. The joint group of faculty representatives and athletic directors voted on a resolu tion approving further parti cipation in the bowl by the conference and also author izing the group's Rose Bowl Committee to open negotia tions to continue sending a representative to the games. The Rose Bowl contract with the Pacific Coast con ference, under which the Big Ten sent teams for the last 13 years, was terminated last August on request of the PCC because of dissolution of that group. The last game under the old contract will be play ed next Jan. 1 with the ath letic directors of the old PCC acting as trustees. Any future games by the Big Ten teams in the bowl would have to be arranged under a new agreement. Be cause of the Big Ten action, which still must be approved by the member faculties of the group, it was expected that representatives of the Tournament of Roses commit tee and whatever West Coast schools now will ally them selves with the Rose Bowl, will invite the Big Ten group to continue the past bowl re lationship.
