0 HGRID KRAMER UPSETS U.S. FAVORITE ." m &.(r u iiJT . By LEO H. PETERSEN UPI Sports Editor Rome IUPD Blonde Ingrid Kramer, 17, the apple-cheeked doll from Dresden, scored a rare diving double in the Olympics today when she nosed out Paula Jean Pope, 25, Ssnta Ana, Calif., to add the high diving championship to her springboard laurels. . The German girl repulsed the California beauty with a magnificent final dive which netted her 18.48 points for a victorious 91.28 total before 10,000 spectators. Mrs. Pope, the favorite, fin ished second with a final dive good for 16.56 points and an 88.94 total, which left her sec ond once again by a heart breaking 2.34 points. Mrs. Juno Irwin, 31, Glen dale, Calif., finished fourth with a final dive good for 16.33 points and an 83.59 to tal while Canada's Irene Mac Donald, 27, wound up ninth with a total of 80.49 points. Mrs. Pope was a mere 1.60 points behind her blonde Ger man rival as they went into today's two final dives at the Olympic Swimming stadium. Russia Wins Race The latest United States failure followed on the heels of another victory for Russia when Vicktor Kapitonov won the gold medal in the 175 kilometer (about 110 miles) cycling race. It was the fourth gold medal won by Russia so far in the Olympics, against only one for the United States. Kapitonov managed to beat out Lvio of Italy by inches. Kapilonov's winning time was 4:20.37, an average speed of about 26 miles per hour. The United States gained its first gold medal Monday when Gary Tobian won the men's springboard diving, and had high hopes today that Carolyn Schuler, O r i n d a, Calif., and Bill Mulliken, Champaign, 111., would gain two more. Tobian, a slender six-footer from Glendale, Calif., got the U.S. Olympians off the schneid Monday when he won the 3 meter springboard dive in a close race with fellow Ameri can Sam Hall of Dayton, Ohio. They finished 1-2 to take home both the gold and silver med als on a day in which the Yanks won a total of three medals in all. Today, the 17-year-old Miss Schuler has an excellent op portunity to win a gold medal in the women's 100-meter but terfly final, and Mulliken can make it two in the men's 200 meter breaststroke final. Miss Schuler shattered the Olympic record for the 100 meter butterfly Monday when she churned out a 1.09.8 clocking to qualify for today's final. The old record of 1:11 flat was set in 1956 by Shelley Mann of the United States at Melbourne. Mulliken made it two straight U.S. Olympic record performances later in the day when he surged through a 200-meter breaststroke trial in 2.37.2, bettering the old mark of 2:38 he set in the opening round on Saturday. The U.S. basketball team routed Hungary, 107-63, for its third straight victory with All America Oscar Robertson of Cincinnati scoring 22 points and All-America Jerry Lucas of Ohio State 21, and the U.S. water polo team defeated Belgium, 5-2, to mark other top American performances Monday. However, the Americans were somewhat disappointed when Chris Von Saltza. a strong hope for a gold medal, bowed to Australia's Dawn Fraser in the 100-meter free style. The 21-year-old Miss Fraser. a Sydney secretary, beat 17-year-old Chris from Saratoga, Calif., by a full length, breaking loose in the last 40 meters to win in 1:01.2 to tie her own world record. Miss Von Saltza said later she "didn't know why" her time of 1:02.8 was so much slower than her best clocking of 1.01.9 in preliminary heats, but coach George Haines at tributed it to her freezing up a little because of "Australian progagnnda", and said she "probably" was half beaten before the race even started. 1 0 SECTION B PAGES 1 to 8 MEDFOKDvi!&&TWBUrfl SIPCOIffiTES MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY, AUGUST 30, 1960 Tacoma, Pads Trip PCL Foes ramento, 9-9, while the Padres scored two in the last inning in edging Salt Lake, 3-2.
