The Relays of 1948 drew 59,661, while those in 1955 drew 56,270. Profits from the- Annual Los Angeles Coliseum Relays are used for the benefit of amateur sports, and for the sending of Southern California athletes to National Championship events. The Southern California Committee For The Olympic Games also makes a substantial donation to the United States Olympic Fund every four years. Born at Los Angeles, California on May 7» 1902, William C. Ackerman attended Hollywood High School, where he excelled in baseball and tennis. He did likewise at University of Cali- fornia, Los Angeles, from which he was graduated in 192i|..

It is distributed without charge to high schools, colleges, press, radio and television, athletic coaches and officials. Helms Athletic Foundation, with offices at Helms Hall, Los Angeles 34, is sponsored by Paul H. Helms, Jr. The Foundation was established in 1936, with one of its main functions that of recording the achievements of athletes in all sports and all divisions. This 23rd annual Track and Field Record Book contains best marks of Los Angeles City and C.I.F. track and field athletes over past years, past City and C.I.F. Championship teams and present City, State and National Interscholastic records. Track and Field Athletes of the Year are also listed for both Los Angeles City and C.I.F., selections which have been made by All-Southern California Board of Athletics since 1937. Names of these athletes are engraved upon the Paul Helms trophy. HUBIE WATSON (JORDAN) & DALE STORY (ORANGE) ARE TRACK & FIELD ATHLETES OF YEAR - 1959 A Jordan High School sprinter, Hubie Watson, and a record breaking miler from Orange High School, Dale Story, were named Track and Field Athletes of the Year for City and C.I.F. high schools respectively, by members of All-Southern California Board of Athletics. Hubie Watson, junior sprinting sensation from Jordan High School in Los Angeles, was a double winner in both L.A City Championships and California State Championships for 1959. Watson set a new 100-Yard mark in the City finals, running 9.5 seconds with the aid of wind. Although the mark cannot be considered for na- tional recognition, the time will go in as a City Meet record, Watson also won the 220-yard dash in 21.6 seconds. In the State Championships at Bakersfield, Watson won the 100-yard dash in 9.8 and duplicated his City Meet clocking of 21,6 in the furlong. At the Compton Invitational, Watson upset a number of college stars in the open 100-yard dash, clocking 9.6 seconds. Dale Story, Orange High School senior, who had a best mile time of 4:22.6 last year, set a new interscholastic record of 4*11.0 at the California State Meet at Bakersfield. His time bettered the 4s 13.2 mile run by Dyrol Burleson last year, which set a new interscholastic record. Story also ran a 4:16.9 in the semi-finals of the C.I.F. Southern Section meet, which goes into the book as a new meet record. Dale Story's coach, Orv Nellestein, gives El Cajon's fine miler Jack Hudson a good deal of the credit for the new prep mark. "Had not Jack gone out and set the pace, I doubt if Roy would have come close to his 4:11.0 clocking", said the prep mentor. Hubie Watson is coached at Jordan High School by Norm Forster and Jess Flores, while Dale Story received his coaching from Orville Nellestein.

Dr. Wayne Wilson, (213) 730-9696 Founded more than fifty years ago on October 15, 1936 under the name Helms Athletic Foundation, the Paul Ziffren Sports Resource Center is on the fast track to becoming one of the most important sports’ libraries in the world. Indeed, it is the only sports resource center of its kind in the United States which 306 Film, Media, and Museum Reviews has in addition to its sports’ focus, an ambitious yet well-organized acquisition philosophy. Housed in a visually pleasing edifice, its collections include, a variety of archival materials, scholarly journals, historically significant pho- tographs, annual sport guides, an increasing number of oral histories of southern Californian Olympians, an unparalleled collection of coaching vid- eos, the Avery Brundage Collection, and most importantly over 3,500 volumes of archival Olympic publications. In 1930, W. R. “Bill” Schroeder conceived the idea of providing a museum Interior of the Paul Ziffren Sports Resource Center.

  • SOT - Randalls Island - July 3-4/ OT Los Angeles - September 12-13
    1964 MEN Trials were held in Los Angeles on September 12/13, some 5 weeks before the Games, after semi-final Trials were held at Travers Island in early July with attendances of 14,000 and 17,000 on the two days. To give the full picture, both competitions are analyzed here. SOT - Randalls Island - July 3-4/ OT Los Angeles - September 12-13 OT - 100 Meters - September 12, 16.15 Hr 1. 5.

Bernie Rivers (New Mexico) 10.4e Bob Hayes had emerged in 1962, after a 9.3y/20.1y double at the '61 NAIA, and inside 3 seasons had stamped himself as the best 100 man of all-time. However, in the AAU he injured himself as he crossed the line, and he was in the OT only because of a special dispensation. In the OT race Newman started well but soon faded and Hayes, Jackson and Pender edged away from the field at 30m, with Hayes' power soon drawing clear of the others. He crossed the line 5ft ahead, still going away, and the margin of 0.1 clearly flattered Jackson. A time of 10.3 would have been a fairer indication for both Jackson and Ashworth rather than the official version of 10.4, while Stebbins and Rivers (neither officially timed) are listed at 10.4e from videotape.

  • Outdoor Track and Field DIVISION I
    DIVISION I 103 Outdoor Track and Field DIVISION I 2001 Championships OUTDOOR TRACK Highlights Volunteers Are Victorious: Tennessee used a strong performance from its sprinters to edge TCU by a point May 30-June 2 at Oregon. The Volunteers earned their third title with 50 points, as the championship-clinching point was scored by the 1,600-meter relay team in the final event of the meet. Knowing it only had to finish the event to secure the point to break the tie with TCU, Tennessee’s unit passed the baton careful- ly and placed eighth. Justin Gatlin played the key role in getting Tennessee into position to win by capturing the 100- and 200-meter dashes. Gatlin was the meet’s only individual double winner. Sean Lambert supported Gatlin’s effort by finishing fourth in the 100. His position was another important factor in Tennessee’s victory, as he placed just ahead of a pair of TCU competitors. Gatlin and Lambert composed half of the Volunteers’ 400-meter relay team that was second. TCU was led by Darvis Patton, who was third in the 200, fourth in the long jump and sixth in the 100. He also was a member of the Horned Frogs’ victorious 400-meter relay team. TEAM STANDINGS 1. Tennessee ..................... 50 Colorado St. ................. 10 Missouri........................ 4 2.

  • Commemorative Plaques Honoring LA City Prep Legends
    UNI HI EDUCATION FOUNDATION The sole, officially-authorized alumni support organization for University High School Commemorative plaques honoring L.A. City prep legends Dick Kampmann and Mel Patton to be unveiled at campus luncheon on May 15 LOS ANGELES, May 5, 2016 – Two men who made Los Angeles City High School sports history will be honored with massive plaques commemorating their achievements at University High School at an on-campus luncheon on May 15. In 1943, Mel Patton completed his second straight sweep of the 100-yard and 220-yard City titles and set school records that would not be broken for more than 30 years. Five years later, after completing his service in World War II, “Pell Mel” was the “World’s Fastest Man” heading into the 1948 Olympic Games in London and won two gold medals, in the 200 meters and 4x100 m relay. He is the only Olympic gold medalist in Uni history. Dick Kampmann never ran as fast as Patton, but he followed Patton’s legendary coach, Jim Pursell, at the West Los Angeles campus and went on to even greater heights. As mentor of the cross country and track & field teams from 1960-85, Kampmann brought eight All-City team championships to Uni, 77 Western League titles and 875 dual-meet victories. His athletes won 24 individual All-City championships and 252 league titles, in all divisions. For these achievements, the school’s new football field and track & field facilities were named “Kampmann Stadium” and “Patton Track” in ceremonies in October 2015. The naming effort was led by the Uni Hi Education Foundation (UHEF), devoted to supporting the school’s curriculum and programs in a time of diminished public funding.
