p ECORD breaking has many odd
IN angles that often remain hidden
behind the scenes. Gene Fowler,
author, poet and sage of Hollywood,
insists that Barney Oldfield, the vet
eran auto racing driver, is the all
time leader when it comes to a mat
ter of uniqueness.
Barney learned to drive car
one morning." Gene says, land he
broke a worlds record that same
afternoon"
This happens to be 100 per cent
true. Henry Ford, looking for a
chance to test one of his new cars,
turned the job over to Barney and his
mastOdOnic cigar. Barney spent an
hour or so learning how the differ
ent gadgets worked and few hours
later gave his machine the gas, prov
ing car could be driven at faster
pace than mile minute.
If asked to take the chance, Old
field also would have been the first
to try driving a car from the top of
a skyscraper.
While playing golf with Johnny
Weissmuller, we discovered the Tar
IAN swimmer also had been fea-
ture in the unique division.
Johnny, after turning in II at
Lakeside, said, 'The first time ever
swan in competition 1 set new
worlds record at 100 yards. The
second time 1 started happened to
break this first record"
The difference between Weissmul-
Ter and Oldfield is that Johnny had
been in hard training under a COM

petent coach for some time. But
even this doesn't detract from the
performance of the most remark
able natural swimmer who ever
ived-and one of the great COM
petitorS.
Weissmuller now is busy showing
chimps how to climb trees and throw
coconuts.
T1Uo Others
Two other unique record breakers
are Cornelius Warmerdam at the
pole vault and Les Steers at the high
jump-two high-fying Californians.
Warmerdam discovered that the
only way he could pass Is feet was
to get his right arm out of the way
in time. Steers discovered that the
only way he could beat 6 feet 10
inches over the lofty Cross bar was
to get his left foot out of the way
before it carried away the bar.
81 could get my left hand and left
arm away in time at Is feet or bet
ter" Warmerdam, the high school
instructor, said. 'It was the right
arm that gave me all the trouble.
I worked at this knack and 1 also
worked hard at the job of increasing
my speed. In the beginning I ran
the hundred in liz seconds. Later
on 1 got this speed down to 1925
seconds"
With these two things accom-
plished Warmerdam scared above
Is feet at least seven times in one
year, finally reaching the incredible
height of Is feet 534 inches. His goal
is now 16 feet, given the time to
practice.
about Steers
There were vague rumors and re-
ports years ago that certain Zulu
African jumpers could equal 6 feet
10 inches. These rumors never were
verified.
But back in June, 1941, at a Pacific
Coast conference meet, Lester
Steers, the Oregon University rub
herman, proved a human being
could clear the bar at feet II
inches.
In an effort to control balky left
foot, he would train wearing only
one shoe, on his right foot, with his
left foot bare. Steers goes over with
a legal body roll. After hard work
he was able to get this left foot out
of the way at the top of the jump.
His goal, if given the chance, is
7 feet, once thought to be impossible.
Human Limit
Charley Paddock, the first of "The
Fastest Humans" had a new 100
yard record in sight one afternoon
when he suddenly discovered that
his leg ligaments would not stand
that much strain.
He realized, nearing the 8O-yard
mark, that he was on his way to
at least 9 Is mark when he felt
that one or more ligaments were
about to crack. Not wishing to re-
main a cripple he eased up to tie
the existing world mark.
