HUBIE WATSON (JORDAN), RAY VAN ASTEN (BO- NITA), & BOB BONDS (RIVERSIDE) SELECTED AS TRACK & FIELD ATHLETES OF YEAR - 1960 1 Three of Southern California's record breaking track and field athletes over the past 1960 season — Hubie Watson, Ray Van Asten and Robert Bonds — were named Athletes of the Year in Los Angeles City and CIF Track and Field when members of All-Southern California Board of Athletics made their annual selec- tions. All three boys broke city, CIF and state meet records this season. This marks the second year in a row that Hubie Watson has been named Los Angeles Track and Field Athlete of the Year. Hubie set a city dash mark of 9.5w in 1959 and was a double winner at the State meet. This year, under the able tutelage of Norm Forster and Jesse Florse, Hubie set another city meet mark of 20,7 in the 220-yard-dash. This gives the Jordan flash both sprint marks in the Los Angeles City Meet record section. Co-Athletes of the Year were named in CIF track for 1960. Ray Van Asten of Bonita High School set a new CIF Southern Section Meet mark in the 880 of 1:53.0 and then set a State and National mark in the same race at Palo Alto when he dashed off a 1:51.9 to shatter Don Bowden's national mark of 1:52.3. Robert Bonds, Riverside Poly's all-around track and field star, won wide acclaim along with Van Asten. Bonds won both high and low hurdles in the Southern Section meet at Long Beach and then copped both events in the State meet with record clockings. Bonds' new state standards are 13.9 in the highs and 18.8 in the lows. Ray Van Asten is coached by Bob Hailey, while Robert Bonds received his coaching from Earl Marshall. Norm Forster and Jesse Flores have tutored Hubie Watson for the past three years. (1) HELMS ATHLETIC FOUNDATION TWENTY-FOURTH ANNUAL TRACK & FIELD RECORD BOOK.. .1960 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA C.I.F.

  • 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.

  • OLYMPIC GAMES LONDON July 29 - August 14, 1948
    Y.E.A.H. - Young Europeans Active and Healthy OLYMPIC GAMES LONDON July 29 - August 14, 1948 The Austerity Games The 1948 Summer Olympics, officially known as the Games of the XIV Olym- piad, were held in London , United Kingdom . After a twelve-year hiatus caused by the out- break of World War II ; these were the first Summer Olympics held since Berlin 1936. The 1940 Olympic Games had been scheduled for Tokyo , and then for Helsinki ; the 1944 Ol- ympic Games had been provisionally planned for London. The event came to be known as the Austerity Games, because of the difficult eco- nomic climate and rationing imposed in the aftermath of World War II . No new venues were built for the games and athletes were housed in existing accommodation at the Wembley area instead of an Olympic Village , as were the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games and the subsequent 1952 Games . A record 59 nations were represented by 4,104 athletes, 3,714 men and 390 women, in 19 sport disciplines . Germany and Japan were not invited to participate in the games, however, the Soviet Union was invited but chose not to send any athletes. Great Britain almost handed the 1948 games to the United States due to post-war financial and rationing prob- lems, but King George VI said that this could be the chance to restore Britain from World War II . The official report of the London Olympics shows that there was no case of London being pressed to run the Games against its will. In March 1946 London was selected ahead of Baltimore , Minneapolis , Lausanne , Los Angeles , and Philadel- phia .

  • Times and Marks for USC Track Athletes 1894 to 2018 INTRODUCTION
    USC TRACK & FIELD Times and marks for USC Track Athletes 1894 to 2018 INTRODUCTION This supplement booklet to the media guide is my effort to document every athlete who competed for the University of Southern California Track Team. Needless to say, I know everyone is not listed, but I did try. This booklet is a free download, but if you really like what you see here, I/we (Trojan Force) would be more than happy to accept any donation you’d like to send. That info will be at the end of this introduction. WHERE TO START? I wrestled with how to organize all this data knowing that the next person would have chosen a different format. But here it is, such as it is. With a men AND a women’s program we’re looking at some 6,000+ names who can be accounted for that competed for USC. This number doesn’t take into account all the relays as there are names on some of the relay teams that did not show up in any other results that I was able to find. Every effort was made to find a mark or time for every track athlete, but this just wasn’t possible. Athletes listed with no marks or times were the 2nd and 3rd place finishers in posted meet results. This booklet covers the years 1894 to 2018 for the men; the women’s supplement is still being “written” and I hope to have it done by the end of summer 2018. The early marks were gathered from posted results in the newspaper and the El Rodeo yearbook.

  • Craig Dixon, 1948, Track & Field
    An Olympian’s Oral History CRAIG DIXON 1948 Olympic Games – London - 110-meter Hurdles - Bronze Medal Interviewed by: Dr. Margaret Costa Edited by: Carmen E. Rivera Published by the LA84 Foundations 2141 West Adams Boulevard Los Angeles, California 90018 www.la84.org (c) LA84 Foundation, December 1999 CRAIG DIXON Today is Monday, March 25, 1991. This is Dr. Margaret Costa interviewing Mr. Craig Dixon, bronze medalist in 110-meter hurdles, 1948 Summer Olympic Games in London. Q: Tell me about your childhood. A: Well, as a matter of fact, Margaret, you’re sitting in the house that I was almost born in. I moved into this house on the westside of town when I was three years old. My dad had opened a Ford Motor Company auto agency in Vancouver, B.C., and my mother was born in Scotland and had gone to Vancouver where they met. He made his money and he became ill at a fairly young age with ulcers. In those days they didn’t know how to treat ulcers. He later, at the Mayo Clinic, had part of his stomach removed. We then moved here and he built this house in 1926, and lived off the income that he had developed from his agency by investing in the stock market. I was brought up in Nebraska on a farm during the Depression. He was a very frugal man.
