Athletes And Coaches Deny Use Os Drugs By UNITED PRESS Track stars and their coaches, including the nation’s only sub-4-mlnute miler, took a New York doctor over the hurdles today for his ‘‘ridiculous’’ charge- that the recent flurry of 4-min Ute miles could be attributed to the use of stimulant drugs by athletes. Dr. Herbert Berger, chairman of the New York State Medical Soiety's committee on narcotics and Icohol addiction, told a meeting of the .American Medical Assn. Wednesday that "the recent rash if 4-minute miles is no coincllence.” “When I was a college boy the -minute mile was as unlikely as lying to the moon,” said Dr. Berber, who added that one stimulant n particular — amphetamine—was widely used in athletics. His statement brought an Imlediate response from Don Bowlen of the University of California, ho became the first American to ack the 4-minute mile barrier t week at‘Compton, Calif. It's a ridiculous and silly acsation,” said Bowden. “The caches and athletes I know have x> much sense to use drugs." Bowden’S trainer, Jack William>n, sa;d “the use of drugs” at the (niversity of California “was on le forbidden list...and that goes >r Don Bowden, too.’’ Although Dr.- Berger did not :ntion any athletes in his stateient, Ohio State track coach Lar--7 Snyder quickly pointed out that ,'owden never could be charged, ith using drugs. “If any person , did not use the Irug, it -was Don Bowden,” said inyder, who has coached such Olympic greats as Jesse Owens, Mai Whitfield and Glenn Davis. ‘‘He's a fine athlete.” Daniel J. Ferris, secretarytreasurer of the Amateur Athletic Union, said his organization knew □f no use of drugs by. mile runners. He added that the union.and the International Amateur Athletic Federation had rules that anyone discovered taking drugs erf any kind was subject to suspension for life. Coach Don Canham of the University of Michigan declared, Ive taken athletes on European tours and many of them were Olympic stars and not one of them used stimulants. At one time there was a fad to use honey or dextrose, but they can hardly call that drugs. ’* Some members of the Detroit , Lions’ professional football team were given tranquilizing pills before games last season, and Reno Bertoia, a hitherto mediocre baseball player with the Detroit Tigers, has attributed his surprising play this year to the use of similar pills. _____ Jasper Man Killed In Auto Accident JASPER, Ind — (W —James H.

Garden Searched For Bomb Evangelist Graham Speaks To 18,000 NEW YORK (UP) — Billy Graham told 18,000 persons how they could keep their "appointments with God and be saved" Wednesday night Only three hours before police had combed Madison Square Garden for what they feared was a bomb planted to explode during the sermon. The audience was unaware that 25 policemen had searched the Garden for a possible bomb after a janitor found a note in the lobby that said in part "A lot of people Will be kill.” Graham said that the woman at tile well in Samaria (John 4:1) did not “just happen to be there and Christ did not just happen to pass through Samaria—He didn't have to go through Samaria because He was a Jew and the Jews and Samaritans hated one another. “He went to Samaria to save that woman. It's the same here tonight. You didn’t have to come here but you had a divine appointment with God. Every time J stand here I know someone is here by God’s appointment.” Following the North Carolina Baptist minister's plea to his listeners to keep their “appointments with God,” 622 persons recorded “decisions for Christ.” bringing Graham’s New York Crusade total to 22 days to 12,684, More than 392,500 persons have" attended his sermons.
