I A. A F. F tabled the discussion of starting blocks at its last meeting meelin without I taking action Naturally the Nation National al A. A A. A U. U has not taken an open stand on the matter The N. N C. C A A. A. A recognizes records made by athletes athletes athletes ath ath- letes who use them Coach Cromwell spoke his mind on this matter as follows Starting blocks are a mechanical device designed not to give a runner run run- ner ncr added impetus especially but rather to give him ideal starting conditions con con- conditions sometimes not possible from holes I would predict that eventually eventual eventual- ly the federation will get around to adopting them although it may take a long long time Take Light Workouts With the preliminaries only a n day away most of the athletes will take light workouts this afternoon Glenn Cunningham Kansas' Kansas great middle distance star Walter Marty Fresno State high jumper and others of the troupe who have eclipsed world marks this year planned for the lightest sort of ot exercise Coach Bernie Moore of ot Louisiana State whose team is defending its title said his m men n would not work at all |
