Vang of UCLA and Gary Gub ner of New York university turned in outstanding individ ual efforts in track and field meets around the nation Sat urday while team honors went to Texas Southern, Villanova and the University of Oregon. Johnson cleared an even seven feet in the high jump in a dual meet with UCLA to become only the fifth American in history to clear that barrier; Yang won four gold medals in the same meet and Gubner, world indoor shot put record-holder, set a meet record of 62 feet, 2 inches in his specialty at the eighth an nual yueens-Iona relays in New York. Texas Southern, a small school noted for its powerful relay teams, won a record- breaking number of six re lays during the 37th annual Kansas Relays; Villanova set tiiree meet records to capture the team title in the Queens- Iona relays; and Oregon snap ped the University of South ern California's streak of 104 dual track and field meets without a loss. Big Ten Dominates In another major meet Sat urday, three Big Ten schools Purdue, Indiana and Michi gan dominated the 34th an nual Ohio Relays with eight first places among them. The Villanova quartet of Charlie Hammock, Paul Dray ton, Bob Raemore and Frank Budd established meet rec ords of :41.4 in the 440 and 1:25 in the 880 while the Wild cat team of John Angevince, Owen Maguire, Gerry Hack ctt and Pay Traynor set a four-mile relay mark of 17: 40.4. Villanova, although minus several injured stars, piled up 50 points to easily outdistance runner-up Manhattan, which had 29 '-a. Johnson, a transfer student from Fresno (Calif.) City col lege, cleared seven feet on his second attempt at the height. However, the slim jun ior then missed two leaps at 7-1. Despite Johnson's heroics, California lost ' the meet to UCLA 99-32, since the Bears had no one to match Yang, a decathlon star from Nation alist China. Yang won the javelin, 120-yard high hurdles, 220-yard low hurdles and the pole vault. Texas Southern stole the show at the Kansas Relays, one of the Midwest's oldest track classics. Never before had any team won more than four relays in one year, but the all - Negro Texas school won six of the seven relays it entered, setting three rec ords en route. Despite 80-degree tempra- ture, Texas Southern cstab 'lished marks in the college spring medley (3:19.8), in the college mile relay preliminar ies (3:11.6) and broke its own record in the final of the college mile relay (3:11.0). Ray Faddler, who participated on all three record - breaking teams, was named the meet's outstanding performer. Shatters Pole Vault Mark In the university division, Fred Hanson of Rice shattered the pole vault mark with a jump of 15 feet, 6' 4 inches; McMurry's Bill Miller leaped 25 fect, 6 inches to set a broad jump record; Phil Mulkey broke his own record for the decathlon by amassing 7.480 points and Houston's Pat Clo hessy was the only double winner, taking the three mile in 14:14.8 and the Glen Cun ningham mile in 4:10.6.
