Beatty, 5 foot 6 inches and only 128 pounds, now running for the Santa Clara Youth vil lage, cracked the U.S. citizen's mark of 3:58.6 set by Burleson last month. The crowd of the California relays here sat in silence as the announcer gave the in formation that Elliott, king of the milers, would be unable to compete due to a pulled tendon in his leg. Then the fins rose to cheer as Beatty fought off Burle son's finishing kick and won going away. Beatty had defeated Burle son in the NCAA indoor meet in New York earlier this year. However, his best time out doors before was 4:06.1. Beatty, Tabori Lead Beatty and L a z 1 o Ta bori, the Hungarian refu gee, took the lead and when they finished the first half mile in 1:58, the crowd sat back expectantly, waiting for Burleson to turn on the steam. As the gun lap sounded, Burle son closed the gap to 10 yards and then, with 200 yards to go, pulled even with Tabori and was breathing on Beatty'j neck. But the little, dark-haired Beatty was not to be denied. Taking three steps for every two that Burleson took, he held off the challenge. Then, with 30 yards to go, he start ed pulling away. Burleson, finishing about six yards back, was clocked in 3:59.2 - the first U.S. citi- Wildcats Win IC4A Meet By Half Point Over PS Villanova, Pa.-IUPD- Villa. nova's young track team, its back to the wall, flashed to a meet record victory in the mile relay-the final event to win the 1C4A outcraor track and field championship Satur day by half a point over de fending champion Penn State. The final score was Villa nova 38, Penn State 37V4, followed by Manhattan with 23, Penn with 21-Vi and Yale 21. The Wildcats, trailing by 1-V4 points going into the fin. al event, tdssed junior Joe Manion. sophomore Carl Wag ner junior Nick de Angelis and sophomore Bob Raemore into the relay for a door-die effort. The youngsters did mag nificently, setting a meet rec ord of 3:12 for the mile. But it wasn't the entire story. Penn State needed only sec ond place to clinch the meet, and the foursome from Man hattan prevented it by bare Inches. Outcome Decided The outcome of the meet was decided in the anchor leg between Larry St. Clair of the Jaspers and Don Davies of the Penn State, and better races aren't run. Davies chal lenged with everything, closed the gap on St. Clair, edged to his shoulder on the final turn, and just lacked the fin al inches for second place. Jubilant Villanovans grab bed Coach Jim (Jumbo) Elliott and tossed him into the water hazard of the 3,000 meters steeplechase. . Trailing the five leaders in points were Brown with IS Harvard 13, Maryland and New York University with 12, St. John's 11 and Boston University 10. The thrilling finish came close to making everyone for get that skyward bound John Thomas of Boston University set a meet record of 7 feet, 1-V4 inches in the high jump, and that Bob Brown of Penn State won a double in the sprints and little Bob Lowe of Brown came through with a double in the distance events.

Tabori was clocked in four minutes flat. Bill Dellinger, former Oregon runner, finished fourth in 4:02.7. Elliott withdrew from the race on advice of his doctor, who said he might suffer permanent injury if he ran. Harry Jerome, an 18-year- old University of Oregon freshman from Vancouver, B.C., whipped Ray Norton and the rest of a star-studded field to win the 100-yard dash in 0.4 seconds. Out of the block at the crack of the gun, Jerome was in front from wire to wire and barely staved off the final lunge of Norton at the tape. Norton, co-holder of the world record of 9.3, also had a clock ing of 9.4. Jerome never before had run faster than 9.5. But he won his aualifvine heat in 9.4 and then came right back to duplicate that time in the final. Champion Eyes Title Defenses By ALEX KXHN Las Vegas, Nev.-fUPD-'Bring on the contenders for my title," that wit. the happy de sire of new welterweight champion Benny (Kid) Paret as he prepared to leave for New York after lifting Don Jordan's crown. The new Cuban champion said he did not care whom he met and hoped to meet all the leading challengers for his title Federico Thompson, Luis Rodriguez and Don Jor dan again in a rematch. "We'll fight anybody," Al faro announced triumphantly as Paret was led from the ring to his dresing room Friday night. "Jordan never hurt me at' any time in the fight," the new champion said. The 20-year-old Cuban said he thought from the sixth round on that he had the fight won but never slowed his pace because he was angry over the jibes of Jordan's handlers that he couldn't go 15 rounds. Jordan, however, claimed a previously undisclosed injury he suffered in the Candy Mc Farland fight a week ago Mon day was responsible for his defeat. The rib injury was not no ticed by medical examiners who passed Jordan as fit for the Paret bout and the Los Angeles boxer remained silent about being hurt. Orioles Idle But Grab Sole AL Lead as Tigers, KC Win By United Preea International The rained-out Baltimore Orioles didn't move a muscle, but moved into sole possession of the American league lead anyway Saturday when De troit defeated Cleveland, 4-3, in 10 innings and Kansas City nipped Chicago by the same score. With the Baltimore-Boston game postponed because of rain, the Indians had a chance to take over first place. Charley Maxwell of the Tig ers killed that chance, how ever, when he homered in the 10th off Johnny Klipp stein of the Indians for De troit's fifth straight victory. Tigor starter Jim Bunning carried a 3 2 lead into the ninth but the Indians tied the score on a three-base throw ing error by Eddie Yost and Vic Power's double. Harvey Kuenn homered with one on in the first in ning for Cleveland but De troit went ahead with three runs in the third on Al Ka line's sixth homer with two on. Pele Bvirnside was the winner.
