20 Tan Stars Qualify
Foi^rip To Australia
Some twenty tan athletes will
fly the colors of Uncle Sam’s
Olympic track and field team
when the 16th Olympaid gets
underway at Melbourne in Nov.
These tan stars will make the
trip by virtue of their fine ef
forts in the red hot competition
at the Olympic trials held in Los
Angeles. Each athlete who
iTUikes the trip placed first,
sMond or third in his event.
The roster of sepia stars who
will perform against the world’s
best at the Olympic games is as
follows:
Ira Murchison, U.S. Army,
100 meters; Andy Stanfield,
New York Pioneer Club, 200
meters; Lou Jones, U.S. Army,
and Charll% Jenkins, Villanova,
400 meters; Amie Sowell, Uni
versity of Pittsburgh, 800 me
ters; Ted Wheeler, University of
Iowa and Jerome Walters,
Southern California Striders,
1500 meters.
Charlie Dumas, Compton
Junior College, Vem Wilson,
Santa Clara College and Phil
Reavis, Villanova, high Jump;
Charles Jones, unattached, 3000
meters steeplechase; Greg Bell,
University of Indiana and Rafer
Johnson, UCLA, broad jump;
Ira Davis, LaSalle College,
George Shaw, New York PiO'
neer Club, and Bill Sharpe,
Westchester Teachers, hop, step
and jump.
Ken Bantum, New York
Pioneers, shot put; Lee Calhoun,
North Carolina College, 110
meters high hurdles; and Josh
Culbreath, U.S. Marines, 400
meters hurdles. Leamon King,
University of California sprin
ter, will join the team as an
alternate to run a leg of the 400
meter relay. King placed fourth
in the 100 meters finals.
Tan athletes clamped
strange-hold monopoly on two
events and took two out of the

first three places in tliree others.
In perhaps the most electri
fying event of the entire trials,
Dumas, a consistently 6’9" and
better jumper, scaled seven
feet and one half inches, the
first time in modern history
man iuis cracked the seven foot
high jump i>arrier. The Comp
ton College freshman who
jumps only in meets, did it on
the second crack at the height.
He actually made it on the first
try, but his had toppled the bar.
Dumas was trailed in tliis
event by two other tan stars,
Vern Wilson of Santa Clara Col
lege and Phil Reavis of Villa
nova. Both scaled their best
height at 6'9 and one-half inch.
Reavis’ leap was all the more
remarkable becaus^ of iiis di
minutive size. The little Pennsyl
vania stands only 5’6.”
Tan stars also dominated the
hop, step and jump, an event
not usually carried on the sche
dules of American track events.
Most of the competitors in this
were dash men who thought
they were not fast enough to
make the team and broad jum
pers. La Salle’s Ira Davis led the
field with by far the best ef
fort of the day with an jump
of 51’ 4 and three-quarter inch.
He was followed by George
Shaw, who jumped 49’ 11 and
one-half inches and William
Sharpe at 49’ 9 and one-quarter
inches.”
Lou Jones, an Army private
who In earlier days ran for Joe
Yancey’s Pioneer 'Club, clipped
two tenths off the world record
he estoblished last year in win
ning the 400 meters. His time
was 45.2. Charley Jenidns, who
turned from the short sprints to
concentrate on the 400 for the
Olympics, finished third.
Gregory Bell of Indiana un
defeated in the broad jump un
til the AAU championships the
week before, snapped back into
form to place first in the broad
jump. His best effort was 25’8
and one-half inches. Rafer
Johnson, also a fine hiurdler,
may try for the decathlon finals.
The biggest surprise winner
aAnong tan stars was perhaps
Jerome Walters who put on a

fine finishing kick to nose out
big ten champion Ted Wheeler
in the 1500 meters. Walters was
not .given much of a cluince to
place.
The Calhoun-Davis duel pro
duced another exciting ifinish
as was earlier predicted and
Josh Culbreath, former Morgan
flash now in the Marines, was
a surprise starter in the 400
meter hurdles. - He finished
third.
Amie Sowell’s second place
finish in the 800 meters to Tom
Courtney was a mild surprise to
the dopestors. Sowell had just
started to pass Mai Whitfield
when Courtney came up from
the outside to pass them both.
A total of 56 athletes will
comprise the US track and field
tesm. The team will assemble
on the coast around Oct. 6. to
prep for the games in a series
of meets to be arranged by the
Olympic committee. The team
will leave the states in groups
by plane Ottober 15. The games
track and field begin on Nov.
23 and continue through Dec. 1.
Dodgers Seem
To Have Begun
Their Move
BROOKLYN, N. Y.
The Brooklyn Dodgers—last
year’s world champions—have
finally made their • move in
what looks tike a direction to
ward copping this year's pen
nant. In a state of flux as to
their lineup because of a mys-
ffrious lack of long ball iiitters,
Skipper Walter Alston believes
he may have finally found the
most likely lineup.
’This one includes aging but
still agile Jackie Robinson at
second, Junior Gilliam—the one
.300 hitter in the line-up In left
field and pitcher Don New-
combe back to a pitching rota
tion after being out with a sore
arm.
Newcombe figured in the first
big game of the Dodgers on the
“comeback-road,” when he was
credited with their 15-2 win
over the Giants.

North Carolina College and Jack Davis of the United States
Navy, keep in perfect step as they sail over the barriers fat

These unusual sequence photographs capture the near
perfect rhythmic stride of the two timper troppers as they
match each other, step for step, all the way to the tape. Meet
officials studied photographs of the race for over an hour and
finally declared a tie between Calhoun and Davis for first
place. Photographs courtesy Los Angeles TIMES.
