n IEW YORK, February g.
M Five years ago a lanky,
/ Y smiling high school young
ster rigged up some jump
ing bars in the back yard Of his
home, out on Long Island, and
started in, methodically, to make
a high jumper of himself.
Today a visitor to the home
Of George Spitz, ir, still can see
where those jumping standards
were set out. There still is the
deep path made by George as he
ran, hour after hour, and flung
himself over a swaying bamboo
pole.
1t is path, you might say, that led
TO a world championship. For this
same youth, now ~ and in his sophO
more year at New York University, set
the world indoor record at feet
inches last year and on Saturday at
the MilrOse games bettered that mark
by flye-eighths Of an inch.
BEFORE the current indoor season
- ends, the experts expect him to
better that mark.
Several times in practice he has
sailed over the bar at feet 10 inches,
but he doubts he ever will attain that
height in competition.
There's something about jumping in
championship that gets you" he ex-
plalned. The crowd doesn't scare me.
But when they lift that bar an extra
inch or two and tell you it's above the
record height, it's hard to keep from
tightening up. I've seen good jumpers
fall a foot below their best jump"
With no one to teach him in his
backyard days, the tall, black haired
boy worked out a system that he felt
suited him It's a combination Of the
old western roll" where the head
goes over first, and the scissors.
VNHERE the average jumper gets in
w one kick" after he leaves the
ground, George uses two. That's
how he gets those extra few inches that
make him champion. He goes over
backward, his head always higher than
his hips. His coach at N. Y. u, Emil
Won Filing, has not tried to alter his
style
Like most sport champions. George
can trace lot of his success to en-
COuragement offered by his father, who
teaches manual training at Flushing
High School. After George, jr., had
outgroWn his homemade jumping
sticks, his father came home one aft
ernoon with a regular set of standards.
1t was. TO George, jr., about the finest
present he ever had received.
