Al Boston Meet

BOSTON. Feb. 1l.-Although sew
eral of their stars will be in COM
petition for the second time in as
many nights, Boston Athletic Asso-
citation officials expect at least two
world record breaking performances
in their golden anniversary meet
tonight at the Boston Garden.
Few doubted that Roy Staley of
Los Angeles, who improved the So
yard high hurdles mark in last
weeks Millrose games, could wipe
out the ST seconds record for Bos-
tons freak 45-yard timber event or
that one of the super-performers
entered in the pole vault would soar
higher than the indoor ceiling of
IA feet As inches cleared by George
Varof here two years ago.
Another record smashing possibil-
ity is the "6OO," which will start
five men who have broken 1:l3-
Harold eagle of Oklahoma, the
Prout meet victor; Wes Wallace, a
two time New York winner this
week, Defending Champion Jim
Herbert, Dick Gill of the B. A. A.
and Bill Fritz of Canada. Wallace
beat eagle by 3 yards in New York
last night while being clocked in
1:148
The 1000 affords similar oppor-
tunities for a battle against time,
with such entries as John Borican,
latest Negro track sensation, Ross
Bush of Southern California, Howie
Borck and those surprising fresh
men, Campbell Kane of Indiana,
and Les MacMitchell of N. Y. U.
Although he realized he would
be competing for the second time in
as many nights, Glenn Cunningham,
unbeaten in his eight previous Bos-
ton starts, promised Unicorn OFF,
Gals he would go all out to break
4:1O, for his ninth time, in the classic
Hunter Mile.
The mighty Kansan led Chuck
Fenske, another Hunter entry, by
three yards while winning last
nights Penn A. c. mile in 4:15.6
at Philadelphia. The others down
to start in the Hunter are the Ride
out twins, Archie San Romani and
Josef Mostert of Belgium.
Don Lash, holder of the 8::58 2
mile record who placed third to
Cunningham last night, will conf1ne
himself to his speciality and COM
pete against nine rivals, including
Tommy Deckard and Joe McClusky.
The B. A. AS 50th annual pro-
gram also includes the dash, high
jump and long list of intercollegi-
ate relay events.
