Officials Weren't Looking; World Record Uncertified OSU Faces Oregon in Dual Meet Eugene - (UPD - Oregon State's track and field team tries again for an upset over defending NCAA champion Oregon in a Memorial Day meet but the chances are con sidered slim.

By HAL WOOD UPI Spsrti Writer San Francisco -WTO- Every body agrees that Phil Shin nick of University of Washing ton broke the world record when he broad jumped 27 feet four inches at the California Relays in Modesto the other night. But officials are just wast ing their time and falsely raising the hopes of the 20- year-old athlete if they think tney ever can get the record certified. For those who came in late, somebody forgot to turn on the wind velocity gauge for the Jump-and that eliminated all chances of a world record right there. "I can't see any way the in ternational federation could recognize the world record," said a sad Harold Berliner, high official in world track and field circles. 'We know he jumped the distance, but there s no way to prove how strong the wind was blowing. The allowable wind veloc ity is 4.473 miles per hour. And it had been blowing be tween three and seven miles an hour just before the jump. So there's no way of telling u it was a legal jump. Berliner says he asked the man who was supposed to gauge the wind, Leon Glover , about the error. "He said he didn't look at the gauge, but believed the wind was about four and one- half miles per hour. Said Berliner: "That would have ruled out the jump right there. And Charley Hunter, vet eran chief referee, said he would not certify the mark. If it's any solace to the sandy -haired Shinnick, he isn't the first one who has been robbed of a world title because of an error by an of ficial. Earlier this year Bob Hayes, one of the world's great sprinters, was clocked in 9.1 for the 100-yard dash - and thought he had the world mark all by himself. Then it was discovered that the official wasn't firing the right caliber pistol and the record was rejected. Al Oerter, the world discus king, thought he had a new world mark in a meet last spring. But it was discovered there was a minute slant in the field-and the record was denied. Shinnick's broad jump was a super-human effort on his part-possibly a jump inspired by watching Ralph Boston go out around the 27-foot mark. It's doubtful that the Spo kane, Wash., youth will come near the 27-foot mark again for at least another couple of years. In the meantime, he can tell friends about "the day I broke the world record-when the of ficials weren't looking.'
