Personally. I don't think anybody can touch him. His feat in putting the shot 61 feet, 5 and Inches In the National AAU champion-' ships Saturday night was, whether or not you are a track and field enthusiast, almost inconceivable. It made him the Babe Ruth and the Bobby Jones of the short pants sport. Nobody but Ruth ever hit 60 home runs in one season. Nobody but Jones ever slammed golf's British and U.S. open and ama teur championships In one year. And nobody but O'Brien ever heaved tne Jti-pound shot 60 feet- let alone 61 plus. NO ALIBI It was a completely outstanding performance under adverse condi tions. His fantastic toss was ac complished indoors, at Madison Square Garden. Not a man who needs an alibi, the 225-pound Parry when he came east for his indoor efforts had pointed out analytical ly that indoor shot putting was not conducive to record breaking. There s a lot of difference be tween putting Indoors and out doors." he explnined. "The most Important, probably, is the diffi culty of getting the 'feel' of the larger, covered shot used indoors. The difference means several inches, at lenst." So whnt did the man do? A week earlier he flipped the big Iron ball 59 feet, nine Inches for a new world Indoor record, breaking his own Indoor record by some live Inches. Stop now, before considering his performances a week later in the AAU championships, and remcm ber that at Helsinki in 1952 he won the shot put championship with a new Olympic mark of 67 feet, 1 1 i Inches. Subsequently he created the out door mark of 61) feet, 10 Inches. FOULF.O OUT So last Saturday night he start ed off with a pair of fouls as his motion enrried him out of the shot put circle. One measured 59 feet, the other one 60 feet. Then, fearful that he might not qualify, he settled for 58.6 and 59.4 heaves, made while practically standing still. Then he fouled off a 59 footer and flnnlly threw caution to the winds with a world's all-time best of 61 feet, 5 and 'f Inches. And every toss was better than the outdoor Olympic record. But Parry, a lieutenant In the Air Force, still Isn't satisfied. He's figuring on a shot put - discuss double In tiie Olympics and is hit ting 180 feet consistently with the metal plate. The Olympic record Is 180 feet. 6' 2 Inches. "Very happy" with his shot put world record. O'Brien Is "really excited" about "finding myself with the discus. But then, wny should he be ex cited about tossing the shot 61 feet. 5'4 Inches when no other man ever has hit 60 feet? After all. the young man thinks he'll hit 63 feet before he's finished. And he'll probably do it, too. 9n fiih$ By TIIK ASSOCIATED PRESS TRACK NEW YORK The Amateur Athletic Union advised track meet directors their organizations will lose AAU sanction "forever" If they permit Wes snntee to com pete, even If the American miler .succeeds in obtaining a court In junction against his lifetime ban as an amateur.

If the Raiders 'win, It would as sure them of sole ownership of the number three position In the final standings as the race heads into the final week of action. In case of a Red Raider victory. Palmberg's Owls would have to win both of their OCE games to stay out of the league's cellar po sition, a spot that the Monmouth Wolves now hold. In the three games played so far this year between the Owls and Raiders, the Mile High Camp us club has come off the. victor on two of the occasions, both times by wide margins. Tech has won 69-49 and 73-46. while losing a 69-66 decision at Ashland. In all three games, Tech's multiple zone de fense has plagued Southern Ore- 1 gon's run-and-shoot style of basket ball. Palmberg said this morning he would floor the same starting five that he has used in the past sev eral outings by the Tech hoopsters. Jchn McCutcheon will draw tne center spot, while Bobby Whitman and Ted Fischer will hold down the backcourt assignments for the Techers. In the front-line forward posts for the Owls will be Johnny Foster and Jerry Fasteen, the Owls' two leading point makers. Paul Hatcher, a guard, and Bob Frost, a forward, may figure in the Owls starting lineup If any late minute changes are made. Other Tech cagers making the trip are Terry Blair. Cal "Sugar Jet" Smith and Richie Perkins. For Ted Schopf's Red Raiders, high-scoring Bill Hollingsworth will probably be at center, while Klam ath's Guy Munsell and Lloyd Hot line are expected to draw the open ing forward duties.
