Show Peep lisi O) W f3) iscys 1VU Weather mm T till li ... r "'FT most of the record breaking performances that have characterized most meets in recent years. Only one new record was established, but that was an unofficial world's record in the discus, set by Karl Johnstone, track star at North Phoenix High School in Arizona. He heaved the platter for an even 190 feet to eclipse by many feet the longest toss in previous Utah history. This record was set in the special events, and was without competition, and will not, therefore, be recognized as a world record, but Friday night he did set a mark of 185 feet which will likely be recognized as a top mark in . high school competition. The meet. was held under most adverse weather conditions with an almost continuous rain and snow storm handicapping both the participants and the 2500 spectators who braved the storms to watch. In spite of the weather the near record number of athletes from five western states went through their paces in fine style, and while there were no new marks set, races and field events were all close and hard fought and compecould postition about as keen as ' be sibly expected. Central Utah tracksters. had their troubles in competition with other schools of Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado and Nevada. Brian for Utley of Orem jumped a first place in the Class A high jump; and Louis Nielsen, Provo, tossed the javelin 167 ft. 9 in. for the only clear cut victories of the day. Dennis Jones, B. Y. High, finished in a three-wa- y tie for first place in the pole valut with a leap of 10 ft. 6 inches. Bob Bunker, B. Y. High, ran third in the Class B in Century race, and also placed the broad jump. Places Third V Gordon Chatwin, Provo High placed third in the Class A one mile run, and Ralph Childs, B Y High, placed third in the Class B mile race. Other participants in both Region Five and Region Sev--e- n had their troubles in the stiff . . competition. honors in the Senior High School program went to Craig Smith of Olympus who surprised 'everyone by coming within 1000 points of- the total set by Bud Spicer, Douglas, Wyo., who competed under much better con-ditions than the boys had Saturday. , Local athletes held their own in the special events, which annually rate as a top feature in the Invitational Meet. Max Truex, the mite sized runner from Calif ornia, who was brought in to compete against a pair of B Y U runners in the two mile race, found the going too rough, and he trailed both Matti Raty, the young Finnish star, and Gary Griffith, Preston, Idaho's gift to the Y, in the long distance event. Rafer Johnson, the highly publicized decathlon champion, failed to show, but both Dave Parker in the high hurdles, and Dick Millett . 'on1-fir- The meet once again proved disappointing to some because a special event star failed to "show up for the meet. This time, it was Rafer Johnson, the world's decathlon champion who failed to show up for the meet. - BYU track coach Clarence Robison was at a loss to explain why Johnson r didn't show up. . "1 received no word that, he wasn't coming prior to" the meet' Robby said. ( V MUDDER'S PARADISE The Brigham Young University stadium track was sloppy . from the effects of steady rain and snow Saturday as the finest prep and junior college athletes from six states competed in the annual Invitation Meet. The soupy nature of the cinders is shown in this finish of the Class B High School , 100-yar- dash, won by Gary Anderson of Cedar City, d front center. Bob Bunker of BY High, extreme right, was third, and Larry Anderson, Cedar City, was Second. Times turned in by the tracksters were generally hampered by the unfavorable weather. No new records were set.

Thrills Crowd Marcus Nielsen, the Cougar's great pole valuter, also thrilled the crowd with his fine jumping even in the wet and slippery rain. He jumped 13 feet without difficulty but failed to hold his footing in an attempt on the 14 ft. mark. Karl Johnstone's discus throw was undoubtedly the longest platter toss ever made in B Y U or Utah history. Using a heavier plate, of course, Taylor Lewis, of U.C.L.A. tossed the disc 171 f: 10 inches for a special event . . record. .
