Track, Field Meet
Three-Ring Circus
By HAL WOOD
Stanford, Calif. - WMi - The
United States Russian track
and field meet has to rate
with the Olympic names as
one of the world s great sports
spectacles.
The two-day show here at
tracted better than 150,000
fans into Stanford stadium
many of whom came just to
sec what a Russian looked
like.
But they all stayed to ap
plaud one of the Rreatcst
- A
WORLD RECORD - Russia's
Valeriy Brumcl waves to
crowd of some 80,000 track
fans who witnessed his world
record high Jump of 7-5. (UPI)lgcther as well as athletes,
, shows on earth.
It's the World Series,
hockey play - offs and
Rose Bowl all wrapped up
into one. It's a three ring cir
cus.
Never before in history had
fans been able to take such a
choice: watch Al Oertcr throw
the discus over the one-time
barrier of 200 feet or look
at Valeriy Brumcl clear 7
feet 5 inches in the high Jump
enroute to a world record. It
happened at the same time
and the spectator had to make
a decision.
Or on opening dav the
choice of watching Hal Con
nolly set a world record of
231 feel, 10 inches in the ham
mcr throw, or twist the neck
and sec the 400-meter relay
team in its breath-taking baton-passing
act.
It was a good - nalurcd
crowd that applauded the Rus
sians eaqually as hard as it did
the Americans and saved
it's greatest ovation of all
for Brumcl.
But its second biggest hand
went to a couple of lads who
finished third snd second
Max Truex, who made a val
iant but losing run in the 10,
000 meters; and George
Young, who fell during the
3,000 - meter steeplechase, but
still got up to chase a Rus
sian across the finish line.
And there had to be a
lump in the throats as most
of the B1.000 fans Sunday
stayed 'til nightfall to watch
the athletes who had been
battling each other bitterly
for two days, walk off the
field arm - In - arm after the
band had played "God; Bless
America. '
It was a spine - tinglcr
one that the fans won't for
get and possibly set most of
them wondering why the
statesmen can't get along to

Stanford, Calif. -JUPIl- Val
eriy Brumel comes from Si
beria but it's a cinch that he s
not going to be sent back
there.
The world's greatest high
jumper became the first man
to clear the bar at 7 feet, 5
inches Sunday as he electri
fied a dual track and field
meet in which the United
States bested Russia for the
fourth straight time, 128-107.
It marked the second world
mark to fall in as many days.
Harold Connolly of the U.S.
demolished his world mark
in the hammer throw Satur
day with a fling of 231 feet,
10 inches.
Brumcl also bested his old
mark of 7-45s and he did it
nn his very tirst snoi at me
7 fool, S inch height.
But it only was one of the
eight first places which the
Soviet track and field squad
could pick up while the U.S.
men won 14 events.
The same old story pre
vailed in the women's battle
however, where the Soviet
gals displayed too much mus
cle and bustle. With lamara
