that the distance will be covered some
day in is seconds. but 1t never will
be done in nine fiat.
While there is no doubt that the
present day athletes are becoming

be overlooked that practically all Of
the running records broken this year
were due to the adoption of the ten

II the gossip-carrying waves move

a champion sprinter is not immune
