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.

Brown Mentor
Pleased With
PU Facilities
Forest Grove - (UPI) - Head
Coach Paul Brown of the
Cleveland Browns came as
close to a note of optimism
as a football coach ever al
lows himself Monday as he
drilled his team for their
clash with the San Francisco
49ers in Portland's Multno
mah stadium Saturday night.
Brown said he was highly
pleased with the facilities on
the Pacific university campus
here, and had some compli
mentary things to say about
the food. Said Brown:
"The layout here reminds
me a lot of our base at Hiram
college in Ohio. It's just what
we need to apply the neces
sary tune-up touches for our j
game with the 49ers." Brown i
said he liked the way his play- j
ers rebounded from their 22- j
17 loss to the Los Angeles
Rams last Saturday night. He
said the Browns were alert
and full of snap in Monday's
workouts. Several observers
have picked the Cleveland
Browns to win the NFL title
this season.
