running broad Jump with a leap of
16 feet, Az inches, as well as ran
the third leg on Tuskegee's winning

Though Jean Lane won all three

mances were of record equalling OF
record breaking quality. On the
other hand, ! RoWena Harrison
equalled the junior women's broad
jump record with her leap, while

Miss COachman, who halls from
Madison High School, Albany, Ga.
is now a senior prep at Tuskegee

indoor high jump champion and
she gave a fine demonstration Fri
day of the form which made her a
track queen by leaping S feet, 5
inches, in the. high Jump to miss
the world record by only quarter
of an inch. Needless TO say, the
performance spelled a new meet
record. It was Miss COachman, too,
who anchored the Junior women's
record breaking quarter mile relay
quartet to victory.
Alfredo Ford of Hunt High School,
Fort Valley, Ga, eaualled the record
in the junior women's SO meter dash
when she galloped the distance In
SO seconds.

TUSKEGEE, INST. Ala. {SNS) :
An upset like the shot heard
around the world followed by q
spectacular broken record gave the
needed '.savvy' to the collegiate
division of the sixteenth annual
Tuskegee Relays here the past
Saturday, May 8.
An unknown first-year man from
Benedict College, Columbia, S. c.,
who halls from the sidewalks Of
Harlem and answers to the name
of Eddie Green Ridge Green
idge, provided the sensational sur
prise when he won his preliminary
morning heat in the 100 yard dash
in 90 seconds and, in the after
noon, came back and beat by two
yards at the finish the celebrated
Leo Tarrant Of Alabama State at
Montgomery, who. Just a fortnight
before, had won the classic Penn
Relays century dash in 81 after
equalling the carnival record in
90 in the senjfinal heat. The
Hornet wizard came in ahead OF
the famous Norwood H. (Barncy>
Ewell of Penn State on both or
casiOns.
UNSUNG BOY COMES
THROUGH
But Coach Leslie p. StallWorti's
new "find" cared nothing about
Tarrant's success at the Penn Re-
lays, nor apparently about the fact
that the Birmingham Bullet had
won 80 per cent of all his races IN
an average time of 81 over the
past three seasons.
There was nothing flukish about
the Benedict freshman's victory.
He left the starting holes with the
field, pulled away from everybody
but Tarrant af,e~ the first 80
yards, and then sped past even the
favored Hornet star whom he
