The ' wrist was broken by a pitch thrown by ' Milwaukee pitcher Lew Burdette in a game Medi SIPdDHBTS Qualification Day Tense One for Oregon Runners By BILL BOWERMAN Oregon Track Coach Rome - This has been the biggest "sweat" that D y r o 1 Burleson, Jim Grelle and Otis Davis hove ever been through -the day of qualifying for the 1,500 and 400-meter races in these 17th Olympic Games. -1 ' (Editor's note: We all now know that Burly finished ' 'Sixth and Grelle eighth In the .finals and that Davis copped two gold medals in world-record breaking times, in the 400 meter dash and the 1, 600-meter relay; Bowerman's reports via "carrier pigeon" have been delayed). : Certainly I have never ' known such tension. Possibly for me it was three times as tense as when Bill Dclllngcr took the line in the 5,000- meters, be- cause there 4 iV j. 'vm were three I Ns t ' "Men of O re ly,' -Ht.s! gon" getting r : ready to go. L i ..vV-iir.tai1 We always . diu Uowemnn have two plans for a race, depending on the pace and the opposition. With Burly we figured that Elliott, Rozsavolgyl, Hannc .mann, Orywal and Salonen 'were all possible qualifiers (first three men qualify for the finals). Orywal was a front runner and the rest, or some one, would have to stay with him. Sure enough, the pack broke fast and hit the first quarter in :60. Burly was dead last at :61. Burly Move . The pace dropped a bit In the second quarter for a 2:02 for the 800-mclers. At this point Burly moved around the 13 starters and came to the shoulder of Orywol, the lead- er. With a lap and 110 meters to go, Elliott moved past Burl eson and Burly moved to his shoulder. This was the situa tion with 300 to go. Then Snlo ncn of Finland and Hanne mann of Germany took a run at the two leaders so 'they quickened the pace Going Into the last turn Rozsavolgyl moved up to Bur ly and Elliott, who had now opened a gap on the field With a 100-metor home stretch ahead of them Elliott moved up hard and Rozsavolgi and Burly strode in easily - Elliott the winner by six yards. Rosy and Burly together with the field strung out over the next oo yards, Now It was Grclle't turn, His heat appeared to be slight ly easier, but actually was the harder - on the basis of this year's performance. For Grelle, it was to be plan 'B. the pace in this race did not Jump as in Burly's. Jim was In the exact middle of the 17- man field, seventh, a nice gap for him there. Grelle hit his quarter in :80, the leaders at :58, his half in 2:00 and the leaders 1:8B. At this point the pace dropped and Grelle gild- ca up to the shoulder of the leader. "Take On" Jim Bailey taught us a nice tactic five years ago. We call it "take one." This was ap plied for the remainder of the race. With 860 to go Valentin came to Grelle, who took the leador and let Valentin go. With- 500 to go Thomas made his run and Grelle took Valen tin. Next it was Kent-Smith of Australia making a run at 300 to go. As they came Into the final 100, Bernard of Franca burst from the pack I ""VT-'B Ism Hi . f I K j V J if. y,.' XI 131 1 against the IMS and out in front, but Grelle had no trouble beating off the challenge of Valentin and glided home to take an easy second. Valentin faded to no where and Hammarsland of Norway picked up third spot. In the 400 finals it looks like Milkah Singh of India, Karl Kaufmann of Germany, Mai Spence of South Africa and Davis of the "great green State of Oregon" are the best. Sees Burleson Coach Ran into Chick 'Ciochettl (the Cottage Grove coach who was Burleson's first prep men tor) at the Village. Looked very healthy and full of fire and said, "What an education this is. I certainly want to thank George Lowe for the use of his Eastman magic-eye cam era and to WIls Jewell for the three-turret Bell & Howell Armed with these, we should get some outstanding pictures (Bowerman hopes to narrate a series of colored movies of the Games for later consump tion.)
