Courtney of Fordham, Olympic
800-meter champion. splashed
a half-mile in minute All
seconds today as the New York
City track and field team easily
defeated a London aggregation,
94-61.
Courtney's time was phenom-
email. It had rained heavily be-
fore today's half of the pro-
gram and Courtney, a power
striding runner, spun the dis
lance over a heavy. scuffed up
track that showed pools OF
water in several spots.
His time was the fifth fastest
ever registered and goes into
the book as a British all-cumers
record. He is seeking approval
for his May clocking of 1:46.e
as a world record
Derek johnson Of the London
team, who lost to Courtney by
10 inches at Melbourne, was
second again today but his time
of 1:48.5 was a British National
and English Native record. This
time johnson, troubled by an
ankle sprained at Stockholm
last week, finished five yards
behind Courtney.
In the dual meet, the New
York team won IS Of the Is
events. Only British victories
came in the mile and two-mile
run. Peter Clark, who doesn't
rank among the best in Brit
ain. won the mile run with
4;03.5 after Brian Hewson
scratched because of a leg
strain.
Laurie Reed, another Briton
was second although given the
same time as Burr Grim OF

team. They were credited with
4:077.

harder for his role in the finals
so much so that he called him
self a lucky Mexican" after
he came from 3 down at the
turn to defeat Richie Casabella
Of Louisville, KY, up.
Leon won four straight holes
starting at the 18th hole against
Casabella. but Richie squared
the match with a par on the
18th. Leon won the 18th with
q scrambled par 4 after his
drive rolled into the road that

Leon came out of the stones
the best he could, hit a grand

putt. Casabella missed a putt
just a half-inch shorter after a
hooked drive, a fair second and
a fine approach shot.
