I British all-tim- 'by There never was a more confident athlete A1 Oeiter. He was king of his cult. Silvester spoke as if Oerter were up for dethroning this year. Silvester was confident. But it was the kind of confidence that cloaked his insecurity against the great OerUr. It would seem now that Silvester was talking himself into the confidence that he needed. He uras jumpy as a cat. He always introduced the subject of Oerter as if he were bewitched by the man. In an athletes way, that is just what Silvester was psyched. In fact Jay talked freely of winfor he had the ning and this he should have most impressive record coming into this event. We had set up an evening dinner. It was assumed that would meet in the interview- room. MEXICO lung The first three placers were required to appear for interviews. Jay was not in the first three and we never met as hoped. But Oerter was foxy as kings of the court usually are. There is every reason to believe that A1 let Silvester have the going glory. He pitched the plate only as far as all of was necessary. He had one thing in mind matter. no in made the marks the trials He wanted to see the master mark of them four straight championships. This was all there was to do in the discuss. Yes, he slipped in on Silvester and while L. Jay could feel the slip coming, he fought it with the confidence that he wanted to have. Things went badly. Oerter was first up and threw 61.78 meters (Olympic measurements). Two East Germans threw the discus farther than Oerter the first round. Silvester came up, two feet behind Oerter. all Silvester Fouls, Fades ing, rubbed the edge of his plate. d His sixth and final try against the wind and fell the worst of the three. Oerter had and possibly psyched him every inch of the way for the past four years when they had met in Jay with a bad gash in his head from an Tokyo accident he suffered while walking into the stadium. the Jay Silvester faded off Tuesday night into teammates his of one drenching downpour. He told he wanted to be alone maybe to drop a tear with his lovely lady, Geneil. The big guys worked four years for this moment and then was kept out of the high court by the king himself. Possibly Another Try Silvester will try again. He admitted two days ago that he war just beginning to feel his strength. Maybe he will never catch the king. A year separates them. Oerter is 32. Others are getting the tricks of the turn, too. It wont always be dominated by Americans, or by A1 Oerter, as it has been in the past, From the looks of things to beat Oerter one must survive him. There appears to be no other way. And when this big fellow stepped into that ling, you could tell he was king. He flipped the disc a few times, one hand to the other twirled it like a drummer playfully does his slicks and then stepped up and let Vr fly. And oh how she flew.

GRIFFIN - Jumpy As A Cat rAt P Pi : Surprise i ..WfeV: mm MEXICO CITY Try as they did, the many noblemen could not dethrone his majesty, Mister Discobolus. A! Oerter won his fourth gold medal in the discus set an e record. He's owned the title for the past 12 years the last four Olympic games. His court, including the favorite prince, L. Jay Silvester of Smithfield, Utah, remains attendant to him. He may go for five. Or maybe six. And this day, after a thunderous shower in this city's Estadio (track and field emporium) there were tears to be let. Silvester's for instance. Two days ago this reporter sensed that Silvester had one concern: A1 Oerter, the King of Discus. Silvester had heard Oerter was throwing the discus 230 feet. This scared Jay out of his wits. He took a mental shock. Jay had programmed his throwing to where he could beat Oerter every day of any week, except on Oct. 15 for the gold that the Olympics offers. Silvester was nine feet ahead of Oerter in the trials, in the final fling Silvester was nine feet, nine inches behind him. Few w'ould admit it, but this was the greatest psych case in sports. w-- e r' All 4 Salt Lake - wheels 487-179- 7 1C88 I J Most Cars |
