PAGE EIGHT
Perry-Davis Clash to Feature
Home Track Opener Tomorrow
Lion track Captain Rod Perry gets his
tomorrow afternoon at Beaver Field when he
Ohio State’s Olympic ace, Glenn Davis, in the
dual meet.
Perry, who set a school record of :14 in
in his last outing, missed the 1956
Melbourne extravaganza because
of an injury in the IC-4A finals
last season which kept hint out
of the Olympic trials.
Track observers felt that Perry
would have been on the team if
the accident had not occurred.
But Davis made the jaunt
across the Pacific and posted a
atw world record in the 400-
roeler hurdles with a :49.5 time.
He was second in the high hur
dles, losing by a whisker to
Winston-Salem's Lee Calhoun.
Calhoun's winning time was
:13-S.
Penn State's Dick Winston and
OSU’s Roger Houck cannot be
counted out of the running Satur-I
day just because Perry and Davis
are the big names.
Houck has been right behind
Davis in most of the Buckeye
meets this year.
The four competitors will also
tangle in the 220-yard low hur
dles, where Houck is considered
more of a threat.
Perry will also be in the high
jump and sholpul events while
his Ohio Slate counterpart will
also probably ester the broad
jump and mile relay. Davis
could also be a quarter-mile
entrant.
La a dual meet against Illinois
In the indoor season this year,
Davis was the winner in six
events that he entered—a feat
which rivals that of a no-hit base
ball game.
He won the high jump, broad
jump, 100-yard dash, both hur
dle runs, and was a member of
the winning mile relay team.
Davis has leaped 23 feet in the
broad jump and will match his
skill against Winston, who won
the event in both the Quantico
and triangular meets.
lion coach Chick Werner ex
pects the hurdles to be among
the meet-deciding events, but he
also includes the half-mile and
the quarter-mile to be in this
category.
Ed Moran runs tha half mile
to rtbe Lions and Jack McClain
is the Buckeye entrant. Both
can do I:SS and Werner ihinks
they can chop a couple seconds
off this tomorrow.
Jim Norton of Penn State and
Ted Storer of OSU can both run
the 440 in :48.8 and the Nittany
mentor expects a “dogfight” to
ensue for first place.
The mile run, high jump, pole
vault, discus, and broad jump
could also be turning points, ac
cording to Werner.
Xloran runs the mile around
the 4:20 mark and will get stiff
competition from Buckeye cap
tain Bob Wheadiek, who has also
been clocked at 4:20.
Ohio Stale's Dick Furry and
Wayne Milestone and Penn
State's Bob Parker are the top
high jumpers. Stan Lyons and
Jim Wearer give Ohio Stale
a good one-two pole vault en
try. Penn State countering with
Ogier Norris.
John Tullar. Penn State, and
OSU’s Gene Cottennan are the
top discus men. Tullar recorded
s 156’ 11” throw in the triangular
test while Cotterman has thrown
over 150 feet.
Fred Kerr, Penn State’s sopho
more two-miler, is a former Penn
sylvania schoolboy champion.
