Confusion Reigns

Ralph Buschmann Of Brock
ton, Mass, won the District Of
Columbia AAU 30-kilometer
championship race yesterday
beginning at O'Connell High,
but they'll have to put an as
trisk beside his time.
Buschman's time Of l:41.32.2
was faster than the record for
the meet. but the course turned
out to be about seven-tenths of
a mile shorter than it should
be. Instead of circling the
high school twice at the begin
ming Of the meet, the runners
circled 1t only once in a mixup.
The way Buschmann was
running he might have broken
the record at the legitimate dis
lance, but there's even more
irony to his performance. He
isn't registered in the AAU here,
so second-place Jim McDade of
the National Capital All-Stars
will go in the books as the

champion.
