Camp Pendleton Marine Base, Calif. - IUP1I - A speeding carocareening down the wrong side of the road was blamed today for the death of Bob Gutowski, the slSnder giant among pole vaujters still cred ited officially with a world's record. The "death of the Marine first lieutenant cast a shadow over preparations of the U. S.. Olympic team for competition in Rome, although Gutowski would not have been able to vault had he lived. Injuries and duties in the Marines slowed the brilliant vaulter so he did not qualify this year, after representing the nation in 1956. Gutowski's official outdoor mark of 15 feet, 84 inches was set April 27, 1957. It was bettered last month, unoffi cially by Don Bragg by a single inch. Gutowski, "25, who former ly competed for Occidental college, was on his way home from his assignment as a sup ply officer for the 7th Ma rines when tlfe accident oc curred late TuesSay on the sprawling base here. Tile ac cident also claimed the life of one of two ilarines riding in the other auto. Gutowski was en route to his newly purchased home in Carlsbad, about 10 miles south of the base".
