PETERSEN q UPI Sports Editor Rome tUPD Germany's Ar min Hify ended America's 28 year domination of the Olym pic 100-meter dash today by defeating three Yank speed sters in the final of the event. EHjve Sime of Durham, N.C.. was second, almost nipping Hary at the tape. The bull-shoulderedj blond German took the lead from the blocks and led all the way. Sime came fast on the inside lane, however, and al most snatched victory from Hary in a desperate lunge at the ribbon. Equals Own Record Hary's time was 10.2 sec onds, equalling his own Olym pic record set Wednesday. The German's stunning ef fort cost the United States the Olympic 100-meter title for the first time since Canada's Percy Williams won the dash in 1928. Sime was second in .10.2, the same clocking as Hary, with Great Britain's Peter Radford third in 10.3. Cuba' Enrique Figuerola was fourth in 10.3, Frank Budd, Asbury Park, N.J., fifth in 10.3 and, a disappointing sixth and last, was favored Ray Norton, San Jose, Calif., in 10.4.
