March 28-31, where at the National Veterans Championships, held at the Olympic Sportsfield in Kensington, temperatures soared to over 38 on the second day o f the competition, making the conditions extremely difficult, partic ularly in the various distance events. Sad loss of However, despite the heat generated from the sun, and from the track surface itself, performances by the majority of athletes in both track and field surpassed expectations, with numerous and even world records broken. The South Australian Veterans' Athletic Club organ founder Wal ising committee under the guidance of ever-popular president, David Mallett, are to be congratulated on maintaining a smooth and generally efficient program over four days, in what were at times very trying condit ions. Despite the century heat, athletes went on their record-breaking way. Two world records fell, one to Dot Sheppard Browne who ran 17.33.30 in the W45 5000m., and the other to Jean Albury in the W55 5000m., at 19.07.10. (Full report Page 5. Results Pages 14,15 and 16).

The road has a concrete way of making its presence felt. For those of you who would like to significantly soften the blows, we strongly recom mend the New Balance 470. The 470 is the latest in a category of New Balance training shoes noted for their cushioning properties. What gives the 470 its unique cushioned reel is a midsole/wedge made of newly developed highly visco elastic EVA— a material that J1A||||TBII provides '/J W i l l i f t j | AVAILABLE IN WIDTHS FOR A exceptional | MORI PERFECT FIT spring and bounce. Built SUING into the heel of the shoe is a horse shoe made of firmer EVA. This design allows your heel to seat itself more securely. And to make sure that the 470 provides countless miles of running satisfaction, we've employed a counter reinforcer to prevent rear shoe break down and a long-wearing carbon rubber outersole. So before you take on the long hard road again, do yourself a favour. Put on a pair of 470's. new balance' 470 W om ens 11985 New Balance Athletic Shoe, Inc.
