Smoldering Argument of 'Four-Minute Mile’ Flames Again After Andersson Burns Out Brakes on Swedish Stop Watches

to have England's Svd Wooderson run a 4.064 in 1937. Cunningham went 4:044 on Dartmouth's indoor track, paced by four quarter-milers, but the record was not accepted. So Wooderson's record stood until Hagg, now touring the United States, ran 4:06.2 and subsequently 4:04.6 last summer. Then Andersson suddenly popped up with his 4:02.6 last Thursday and the storm broke again. Only a few strides away from their “Holy Grail,” the four-minute sages once again are beating the drums—but they'll find those few vards the dif=ference betwen fantasy and reality, n n FOR INSTANCE, in 1832-—<when the mile-mark assault started—the boys were speeding 100 yards in 10.4 seconds. Down the intervening years, the best in the world have been able to knock off only one second. Four men hold this mark, Frank Simpsoh in 1929, Frank WyKkoff in 1930. Jesse Owens in 1935 and Clyde Jeffries in 1940. This would indicate that here, too, the peak almost has been reached. The four-minute addicts point out that the pole vault eeiling apparently had been reached in 103% when Bill Sefton and Earle Meadows slid over the bar at 14 feet 11 inches—only to have a cloudbusting Californian named Cornelius Warmerdam make them look like novices. But they forget that improved technique and equipment helped Corny vault 15 feet 8'. inches. In such events, new systems and equipment can mean all the difference in the world, But in running, the most important method is picking ‘em up and laying ‘em down faster than the other guy. So if and when somebody clips off our last :02.6 seconds. we are going to shout loud and long for just one thing—a grade A saliva test,

By OSCAR FRALEY >

United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Juy 6.—The smoldering argument as to whether any man ever will run the magic fourminute mile is flaming again today as result of the

world record 4:026 performance in which Arne Andersson burned out the brakes on the Swedish stop watches, Skimming over 1760 yards of Scandinavian cinders to clip two full seconds off the infant mark of the famed Gunder Hagg. this newest Smorgasbord sensation caused an immediate gathering of the affirmative voters in the “4:00.0 club.” Stunned by the “hallelujahs” of the opposition and the large chunk bitten off our fractional margin of safety, we unbelievers were a little slow getting off the mark. But now we've rallied behind that remaining :02.6 seconds and—until Hagg. Andersson, et. al. take it away-—still refuse to side with those four-minute eggs.

BUCKY HARRIS expresses objection to the requirement that compels a manager to name two players from each team in the league for the major league All-Star game, regardless of whether the players are good, bad or indifferent. Other big league pilots, although not as outspoken as the Phillies’ leader, do not like the requirement any better, but it is one of the tasks they are called upon to perform once a year. ... An editorial in Sporting News said the objection wellfounded. “but no more so than the criticism of the entire method of selection, which has been followed since it was taken out of the hands of the fans.” Continuing. Sporting News said, “The original idea of having the players represent the choices of the game's followers undoubtedly was the best. Most fans believe they could have made better picks than the selections of , scent vears. and the experts are inclined to agree with them. “Of course. the fans were not limited by the necessity of including at least two men from each elub in their choices—they merely were naming the stars of the game. and not trying to divide the selections solely on a mathematical basis. “However, there is one saving factor in the present system—the manager of the team on the field is not compelled to play the choices and can use his own judgment as to whom he inserts in the lineup.

AT FIRST GLANCE the negative case appears weak. Since 1882 the milers have slashed 18.8 seconds off the 4:21 4-mile mark established by the late W. G. George of England.

“IT WOULDN'T BE surprising if. one of these days. the All-Star manager, too, is compelled to start at least one man from each club ~—a system that would be as logical as the method of selection now followed. “We are often told that many changes will follow the war.

GIVE Sporting News credit for going to bat for the fans. . . . It was their personal classic originally and although some mistakes were made in the over-all balloting for All-Star selections, the criticism was mild compared to the grumbling and shouting over the managers’ personal selections for the 1943 National and American All-Star teams. Apparently some major league pilots and club owners are only luke warm over the whole thing and there are rumors that efforts will be undertaken to abandon the major midsummer attraction after the war,
