Put On Team
LONDON (UPH John Pennel
of Northeast Louisiana State
College regained the world pole
vault record at the While City
Stadium Saturday when he
cleared 16 feet (Mi inches in an
international track and field meet.
Pennel, competing at the Ama
teur Athletic Association cham
pionships, made the clearance at
his first attempt to surpass the
record set by Brian Sternberg of
the University of Washington.
Sternberg cleared 16 feet 8 inches
at Compton, Calif., June 7.
Pennel then made three unsuc
cessful attempts at 17 feet '
inch, failing narrowly at his sec
ond attempt. The stadium an
nouncer brought roars of delight
from (he 8.800 crowd when he
said "Pennel will have to stop at
this height if he is successful
because the standards won t go
any higher."
On Wednesday, the United
States Amateur Athletic Union
nominated Pennel to take Stern

Lunn, 18-year-old son of a San
Francisco motorcycle policeman,
thus became the 13th Californian
to win the title in the 38-year
history of the event.
But he is not the youngest. Les
Bolstad of Minneapolis won the
crown in 1926 at the age of 16.
Never behind in the gruelling,
36-hole finals in 100 degree heat,
Lunn thrilled a gallery of 3,000
with his block buster drives and
aggressive clutch putts that rat
tled the pins or cracked the back
of the cup as they dropped.
Lunn held a two-up lead going
into the afternoon round, lost the
19th to a par, but won the next
two with pars lo go three-up. He
lost the 23rd to Opperman's eight
