mortal Cemetery of the Pacific
located in the heart of Honolulu.
To the ancient Hawaiians who
know this land as "Puowania, I"
meaning "Consecrated Hill" or
Hill of Sacrifice" no more fitting
name could be devised, for the
ground is indeed consecrated by
those who sacrifice their lives to
perpetuate the ideas of all peace
loving people.
Walker admired guns and rifles,
and hunting was his favorite sport.
When IL years old, he killed 10
foot alligator with a q cal. rifle
in Lake Okeechobee. For hunting
game, the wooded area around
Belle Glade, Fla, was his choice.
Sgt Walker was awarded the

Olympics but who was credited
with the same record time as
the winner. The record he and
the others will be assaulting is
4:13.7, set by Browning Ross in
1948.
Running with McMillen in the
mile will be such others as Sture
LandQuiSt Of Sweden's Olympic
team, Warren Dreutzler Of Camp
Lee, Lamont Smith of Penn
State, Fred DWyer of Villanova
and Clyde Garrison of North
Carolina State, every one of them
familiar names to track fans.
Landquist now is a student at
Oklahoma A8SM, and last week
won the Sugar Bowl Mile in AIT.
That time is nothing like his
best performance, according to
Frank Sevigne the Georgetown
U. track coach who was on the
scene and who had a man in the
race. They were jockeying for
position all through the first
half with everybody trying to get
some one else to set pace. When
they finally put Landquist in
front he did the final quarter
mile in so seconds.
TwO-Milers Have Chance.
The Emile also draws Olympic
talent in Charley Capozzoli of
Georgetown and Osmal Cosgul
of Turkey. plus such others as
Browning Ross. Robert Hollen Of
Penn State, Jim Brown Of the
Navy Olympic squad and several
others in the same league. The
record they'll be after is a good
one, 9:05 by Horace Ashenfelter
last year. but some Of these run
ners are capable Of passing it.
Although Capozzoli and Cos
gul didn't place in the 5000
meters in the Olympics, they had
times there better than both Wes
Santee and Curt Stone, two Of
this country's better distance
stars. Capozzoli since then has
broken a smile record in Lon
don and both the IC-4A and
NCAA cross-country records.
In the relays, the 2-mile rec
ord is 7:46.8, set in 1948 by Illi-
nois. and the mile record is
3:22.2, set by Michigan in 1913.
The 2-mile race shapes up as
a duel between Georgetown and
a Michigan team that includes
two members of the Canadian
Olympic squad, both Big Ten
champions. But Villanova. Seton
Hall and North Carolina State
also are entered and might sur
prise.
In the big mile relay. Morgan
State will bring another fine
group of the kind of sprinters
for which it is noted to defend
a title won last year. Opposi-
ton will come from Seton Hall.

Seton Hall is certain to press
Kansas State for the No. / spot,
not only on the basis of its un-

it is the first major team in the

By George Huber

At least half a dozen meet
records in The Star Games are IN
danger of being broken in the
sixth annual meet Saturday
night at the Armory.
Top-grade track talent is
spread throughout all 26 events
and any Of the marks established
in the last five years can go.
Records for the mile and two
mile runs, 600-yard run, high
Jump, the Fielding Memorial
two-mile relay and the Capital
mile relay seem to be particular
ly in jeopardy.
The high Jump record Of 6
feet Z inches is a very good one.
but that event is drawing the
Olympic champion. Walt Davis
Of Texas A85M, and the Olympic
runnerup. Ken Wiesner. formerly
Of Nebraska, both of whom have
bettered that figure several times,
In the Olympic Games, Davis did
6 feet 8.32 inches for a new rec
ord. while Wiesner did 6-7.14.
And both have done better in
other meets. Davis. for instance,
jumped 6 feet 9 in winning last
summers Olympic trials.
Also in the field is Jim Herb of
Penn State, who set the meet
record two years ago in a tie
with Tom DeLuglio Of Brown.
Vault Mark Likely to Stand.
The pole vault event also is
drawing the Olympic champion
and runnerup-Bob Richards and
Don Laz-but it will be a real
sensation If the meet record of
Is feet 3 inches is broken. That
record was set by Laz while beat
ing Richards here last year.
The 6O0-yard record of 1:12.O
was set by Arthur Wint of Great
Britain in 1851 and will be as
Saulted by a particularly classy
field again. The favorite is Nal
Whitfield, twice Olympic 800
meter winner. He showed he
still is in his record-making form
only last week by winning an
$50 race in Jamaica in 1888.
Among those pushing him will
be Kemal Horulu, from Turkeys
Olympic team; Bill Smith of
Boston o., Mel Holland Of Brown
and Gene Kiechlin Of George
town. The latter is a freshman
and is regarded at the Hilltop as
q real conner who will produce
some surprises before this track
season Is over.
Talent in Distance Runs.
The mile and 2-mile also are
packed with real running talent
There's one household name
after another in the mile race,
starting with Bob McMillen, the
Occidental College ace who
lost a to-f1nish 1,500 in the
