LENN DA VI , of Barbercoo, who will be a ju nior G :it Ohio State University this year, carties with him into the Olympic Games a world 400-meter hurdle record of 49.5 seconds. Davis, who won the Ohio high school track title single­ * handed in 1954, escabli hed the new time in the final Olympic trials at Los Angeles. The mark broke the old record of 50.4 by almost a full second. It was held by Yuriy Lituyev of Russia, established in 1953. Davis, like­ wise, rnppled the American record of 50.6, a time which had smod for 22 years-since Glenn Hardin set it in 1934. That Davis should set a world mark in his first year of competition and also after only nine races at this d istance (three of them preliminaries) is regarded by track expens as nothing shore of asmunding. In the record-breaking race, Davis caught Eddie South­ ern, Texas freshman, a t the 10th and last hurd le, and, in the bole for the tape, Glenn picked up a yard, then cwo. Souchern's time of 49.7 also smashed the world rec-0rd a nd when of the Marine Corps finished third, he cied tl1e Russian-held figure of 50.4. This face sent track statisticians scurrying for the record Seated left to right:-Douglas R. Mills, Illinois; K. l. Wilson, Big Ten commissioner; Guy J . Mackey, Purdue; Richard C.

Figurine the 400 meter hurdles could be Davis' best event, Coach Larry Snyder pointed his protege in that direction after Glenn won his specialty in the O hio Relays PENN ST A TE COACHING STAFF las t April in 54.4. From that point on, D avis mok ad­ vantage of experience and more compecicion. He won the Penn Relays in 52.3; the Central Intercollegiates ar M il­ waukee in 50.8; the national AAU in 50 .9; and the Olympic qualifier in 49.6. He lost only one 400 meter rnce, that co Aubrey Lewis of otre Dame in the N CAA finals at Los Angeles. Davis was second. Time: 51.4. Along the 10-week trail from mid-April m late June, Davis broke five records, in addition co the world mark. Davis, who was named on the 1956 All-American team, now joins a select group of Ohio Stare held world records. Here is the list: - broad jump, (26 feet, 8)4 inches ); 220 yard low hurdles (22.6 seconds); 100 meters, 10.2 seconds) 200 meters (20.3 seconds). Owens' broad jump mark still stands.
