Alter a quick canvass, Dan Fer ris had to split his vote between the sprints and the 400-meters when called upon to name the best event In the national AAU track meet next weekend , . . The sprint field includes Charley Parker, the Texas kid who is so good that one local sprinter who has seen him doesn't think he can be beaten; Illinois' Claude Key atone (Buddy) Young, Ed Con well, Barney Ewell and Herb Thompson . . .
