Jo Our Own Specialities
By FERRY LEAZER
In the United States the H>(>0 Olyin)jic squad is getting pre-’
pared-for the forthcoming ganu-s ip Kopie August 24th. Coiagk
Larrj' Snyjler hits his sights on capturing enough gold medals
for the teain championship.
While the Americans are gettiiiic ready the European tr^qk
season itiQves forward. Results jwsted recently by the Euro
peans have greatly surpassed the wondrous performances of the
U. S. athletes.
The strongest of the European challengers- that will cause
V many worricfs for U.S. athletes is Germany. The Gerpians, the
surprise of flie Winter Olympics, have the personnel to make
a sit)iilariy strung denioniitration.
Armin Uary, who has done a world record of JO »econd in
the 100 nietecs, and Mawfred Gerniar constitute a thi;Mt tp
America’s spirit supremacy. Martin I^uer set the world ,tecQrd_
for the 110 njeter hurdles last year with a 13,2 and Dr. M»n-i
fred Steinbach broad jumped farther than any man in hi#to'ry|
(26 feet 8.63 inches) a week ago only to have it nillUficd by.'
\vihd conditions.
Carl Kaufmann, a 24 j-ear old athletic teacher, has done th^
400 meter in 45^4, just two tenths of a second off the world
jnarlc of Lou Jones of America.
iSiegfred Valentin recently bettered the world record for 1000
meters with 2;)6.7 and will be stern competition in the cither
8(X) or 1,500 meters. Hans Grodotski has the year’s bt*t time
for J.OOO pieterj 13:49.2 ind Gisela Birkemeyer, with a worl(i
record of 10:5 in the 80 meter hurdles could become the wom
en’s star of the dashes and is a possible tripld medal winner.
.\merica will offer Ray Norton, Dave SinJe, Paul Winder
and Frank Budd in the 100 meters. All of them have at one
time or another a 10.3 in the 100 meters. They have to pijsb
extra hardfto compare with the times posted by the Germans.
The Americans are in a predicament at this stage. Norton ha#
re-injured his back. Si®e’s legs are a liability. Budd and Win
der lack experience and are spasmodic.
In the 200 meters Norton, Bobby Morrow, and Stone John
son will' hM«e to compete w'ith Peter Radford, of England,
Lyie Berruti of Italy and Jocelyn Delecour of France, who
hAe times well under 21 flat in the 200 meters. All of the
Apericins quallfyinjj; times were over 21 seconds.
In the 110 yard hurdles Lee Calhoun. Hayes Jones and Chuck
Cobb will have to challenge German’s Martin Lauer. Lauer’,^
13.2 is the best ever recorded in this evept. Calhoun holds th^
OljTnpic record of 13.5. Jones has the potential td eqtial l^tieFs
13j^ in view of past experi^ce as a sprinter. However, all
wj^ have to reckon with the talented veteran Calhoun, who
wjp be ^ekjng his second gold medal.
|n 400 njcters Jack^ Verman, Ted Woods and Eddie
Soutl^m will try and match quarter-miler Carl Kaufmann of
Gerii*»ny. who ran 45.4
Milka Singh, an Indian running in Europe has .recorded a
AA h ^ T I V ’ ■ .1 • 1 Paul’s College, Elizabeth City
^46 flat wmning time lu tlie Xllympic tf.aU.
wa^ 46^3, although he ran 46 flat in a heat.
To say the leabt, America hopes for winning the sprints
haVi darkened somewhat by the surprising showing of
Eu|^3|>eans. We will have to be at our best to beat them
and pile valuable points in the short races because we do not
expeet.t#»,win the longer ones.
Amerfcai»s will see some familiar faces ^hen they arrive in
Rome. Ed Temple, Women’s Track coac^at Tennessee State
Univeraity, is coaching the U.S. Ladies Team. Dr. Tom Halt,
of Howard University, is. coaching the countcy of Ghana.* Dr.
Leroy ^Vajker of North Carolina College is coaching Israel.
