Is thai It takes sway dll Uie Incentive Irom thousands of spurts columnist and track Jour nalists who have for years been Inking dead aim at Uie 4-mUiute barrier. Wc, for one, feel Uiat an old and valued friend has gone, never to return on a cold winter's day when noUilng is going on except an ice hockey game at Uie Garden and the old brain seems to function only by Ills and starts. Then 15 when the dark thought will come Uiat Bannister might have stayed home nnd stuck to his lucdlcnl books Instead of jaunting around to obscure track meets and running his head oif. And for what? No more Uinn a fleeting taste of glory which might not las; lor a dozen years. In his unthinking quest for track Immortality, the fleet Britisher has deprived not only Uie hard pressed sports savant of a tried and proven friend, but as well has robbed literally millions of fans of much exciting nnd vastly In formed rending mntlcr.
