Were Olympic Stars and
Hung Up Some Pretty Good
Records to Shoot at; Hamm
Broad Jumps Close to 26
Feet.

Atlanta, Feb. 8.-(P)-Having made
the biggest showing Of history in
track and field in 1928, Dixie athletes
are determined to add new marks il,
several events during tho coming sea-
son.
Beating the 1923 marks may be too
much to hope for since Ed Hanm OF
Georgia Tech established new
worlds broad jump record and was
Olympic champion; Snider. Auburn
40 man, won a place on the interna-
tional games team: Cummings of Vir-
ginia university later representing a
New Jersey club. was all Olympic
man, and some ten old marks fell
in decisive fashion at the Southern
conference meet at Birmingham.
IIamm, Snider Good
This year. however. while there will
be no Olympic games to look forward
to, Hamn and Snider will be clos
ing their collegiate careers and will
prime for the southern meets and the
national collegiate at Chicago in
juno.
The jumping jacket Of Georgia
Tech will try to break 26 feet In
broad jump. This would we'll eclipse
any known record OF man. He now
laovers near that mark, having dug
the sand only fraction Of all inch
short of it at Boston last summer.
It was that jump which beat the
mark of De Hart Hubbard. negro
athlete, which had bid fair to stand
many years.
Hamm also jumped Is feet. four
inches at the Birmingham meet and
was consistently around Is feet all
spring and summer.
Another Baslin Desired
Over at Alabama Polytechnic In
stitute. campus noted for its star
hurdlers, Coach Wilbur Hutsell is
bringing along new crop and hopes
to produce another Baskin. The lat
ter. now doing graduate work at the
school. also has further Olympic am
billions, although he did not compete
last summer. After the Amsterdam
games. however. he made a great
showing In exhibition meets in Ger
many and England.
Baskin. attending the Southern
conference cross country race here
recently, was loud in his praise Of
the showing made by Bob Young,
University Of Georgia runner. who
won the five mile event with time
Of IS minutes. 80 AS seconds.
While this event has never flour
ished in the south. coaches generally
agreeing the warm weather is not
conducive to the best in training for
such long distance. it Is considered
q splendid conditioner for the shorter
events. especially the half mile, mile
and two mile.
