Long · World -Records: 5 1 000 Meters ( 1950 13:58. 2 1960 13:35. 0 Emil Zatopek> the human dynamo from Czechoslovakia, was in a class by himself from the ' time he first burst . upon ~he athletic world at the · London Olympics in 1948. It was probably because of lack of opposition that Zatopek never broke 14 minutes · for the 5, 000 in the early 1950's. He did come close to it in the 1950 European Championships when he gained revenge over. Belgium's Gast on Reiff, the Olympic champion. After trying to "kill off" · Zatopek for most of the race, Reiff was himself "ldlled''. on the final lap by a devastating ·. Zatopek spurt. The Czech clocked a personal best of 14!03. O with Reiff losing second at the · tape to ,Alain MimoW1 of France. The time was within five secands of th~ world record. ··, . .· This was not to be $e prelude to greater things because in 1951 no one beat14 minutes 1oi'the·s~·ooo.· Zatopek and Reiff-both enjoyed ·unbeaten seasons while inG.reatBritain ._two ... youngsters - - Gordon Pirie and Chris Chataway - -. began to show great promise over .three · miles. Better things were expected iiithe -·O1yrnpic ·year of 1952 and the first threat to Zatopek --;,came when Herbert Schade set a German record of 14:06. 6 in June. Durmg the same month a · .great shock came from Kiev, Russia, when two Russians beat Zatopek. It looked like the great Czech had lost his old -speed and ~fire. However, when the chips were down at Helsinki ' - _,., the 28-year-old veteran raced to a record-breaking 14:06. 6. Mimoun and Schade were second and third, also inside 14:10, ~hile Chataway got up from the track to finish a tired fifth behind Pirie. Zatopek roW1de~ off the 1952 season with five sub-14:20 clockings in 40 days. , , But youth in the person of Pirie had its fling , in Jul),', 1953, when he ran the third fastest ·, three miles ofall time '::'-J3:43--.4. It was a good effort but still a long -ways from Gunder Hagg' s reco~: The 5, 000 record ~arne under fire a month earlier when Russian Alekssndr .,Anufriyev clocked 13;58. 8 in Moscow, only si-x-tenths . of a second shy of the worlc! record. An unknow~J,eningrad rwmcr, Vladimir Kuts, was a poor second in 14:28.; 8. On Aug. 5 _ Anufriyev met Kuts again plus Zatopek, who was :recovering from sciatica, and Jozsef Kovacs of ]';!W1gary. In a fantastic finish, a strong but inexperienc(,'Ci ·Kuts tried to run _away from the otfiers. Only a great sprint finish brought Zatopek the victory in 14;.03. O, equalling his best ev~r. Kuts was second in 14:04. 0 with Kovacs third in 14:04.,2. Anufriyev was a well beaten fourth. Pirie again attacked the three mile record on Aug. · I and came closer with a solo 13:36. 4. At the Russian Championships on Aug. 27 Kuts showed ~urther improvement with a powerful 14:02. 2, again well ahead of Anufirycv. Pirie improved to a 14:02. 6 for 5,000 with a three mile time o! 13:34. O enroute. Kovacs wound up the year oy ·posting a - Win-'over--Xllts · irrt4: ·0F.2nhe--thi1'cl---be-st~o.f-all-time,-.with..Kuts til!!Cd, in .l4;_04,4_. ~ · _- With the European Championships coming up, 1954 was expected to be betteryet'and ··indeed it was. Zatopek started off the season in Paris on May 30 by running a solo 13:57. 2 to take a second off Hagg's record and to show himself as a past master of pace judgn:,eri.t• . Hagg's three-mile record went surprisingly at the British AAA Championships 011 July 10' when Fred Green ' just beat Chataway m ·a thrilling finish. Both were credited with ~l3:32. 2~ two-tenths of a second under the old world mark. ChataWay reversed this verdict by taking the British Empfre G,ames title at Vancouver in.13:35.2. · At the European Championships in. Bern, Kuts, who llad not had a very good season, tore away from the start of the 5,000 final for one·of the most sensational solo efforts in track history. At the 400 mar,k he was three yards ahead in 62. 9. At the 800 he was 20 yards _ahead in 2:10. 4. And so it went with the rest of the field disinclined to follow him. 'The pace killed off four of the pack and Kuts finished over 100 yards ahead in 13:56. 6, passing the three mile in another record breaking 13:27. 4. Only in the last lap did Zatopek and Chataway ,j wake up and move after Kuts. It was far too late to do any good but Chataway took second 'on a sprint past Zatopek with the rest of the field well strung out behind. Just over a month later, Chataway and _Kuts met again in London. Kuts se~ an even faster pace than at Bern and ·.. passed the three .mile . mark in a record 13:27. O only to be caught and passed by the English~ : man right at the tape. Chataway was clocked in 13:51. 6, five. seconds ahead of tne Bern time t ' I I . ; C ' ' ,J ,._ , I i, r ( .. \. :t~ ·j ':- ''--- ' \,,. with Kuts timed in-13:ol. s. Exac'tly 10 days later in Prague Kuts regai11ed his record with a solo rw1 of 13:51. 2, passing , the three miles in 13:?6. 4. , · · . . . I ' In_l9-S6the Hungarians came to the .fore anq distance records began totumble. But before the Hungarian rhapsody started, Chataway annexed the three-mile record with a On \ . 13~23. 2 clocking • . Sept. 10 m Budapest the frail-looking Sandor Iharos ran a solo 5,000 in \ -~ !3: 50. 8 but eight days later in Belgrade Kuts recaptured his record with a 1"3:46. 8 effort. A month later after this sterling performance Iharos counter-attacked with a smashing 13:40. 6, clipping Kuts' best b-y no less than. 6. 2 seconds. The three-mile giark also was improved to 13:14. 2, a reduction of nine seconds. · . . The Olympic year of 1956 warmed up slowly but on June 19 at Bergen, Norway, Pirie tailed Ku.ts until 275 meters f+om hon;ie and then outkicked him for a record-breaking 13;36. 8. Kuts also was inside Iharos' record with 13:39. 6. However, at Melbourne Kuts showed he was the master by leaving a tired Pirie in his wake as he took the gold medal. He exactly equalletJ his best of 13: 39. 6 in this ~asy victory • . The general all-ar9WJ.d .standard improved even more inJ957 with more runners than ever beating 14 minutes for 5, 000. The British three-mile record was beaten in July by . Derek Ibbotson with 13:20. 8 but the highJight of the season was again a Kuts solo performance of 13:35. Oto break Pirie's year old-record. This came only a week after a near-miss 13:38. 0 at Prague. This d!spelled all doubts about the Russian's health. rDuring the-year 12 athletes - broke 14: 00 forthe 5, 000. " - , · · · "·. 1 The approach of the British Emp!re Garnes and the European Championships stimulate(! running still ,further in 1958. Albert Thomas of Australia covered three miles in Dublin in 13:10. 8 to bea f lharos' 1955 µia~ It is doubtful if he ran as fast as Pirie and Kuts in their Bergenbatde when no three mile time was taken. New Zealander Murray Halberg won the .-~. -Empire Garnes three mile in 13:15, 0, beating Thomas by 10 seconds. On a waterlogged track ,,. at the European Championships in Stockholm. Europe's best lined up for their championship race w.i.thQutKuts, who was sick and out of shape. Zdzislaw Krzyszkowiak ·of Poland beat Kuts' Bern mark towi.11 in 13:53.4, no longer a world record performance but still great running under the conditions, Second in this mud-spattered epic -was another Pole -- Kazimierz Zimny - - who established himself as the number one man in this distance in 1959 with K:rzyszkowiak out of action. There was a pause in the deluge of record breaking but this is probably only a morn.entary phenomenon. Rome will see the greatest assembly .of distance rwiners in Olympic history with Kuts' title and possibly his record a,s the prize for the victor. '' ' \ THE FASTEST HUMANS ON BOARDS Part Six of a Series • By Wally Donovan j . . (Author, All-Time Indoor Record Book) A crowd of 5,000 was on hand for the first track meet ever held at the Bronx Coliseum. - In the past the ' spacious arena had been used only for midget auto races but in 1941 the Metro politan AAU senior indoor championships were held there. Five ,sprinters .came t'o their marks _,. for the final of the 60 yard dash. They were Thomas Carey of the New York Pioneer C Iµb and . the defendi11g· champion; Ed Greenidge, Carey's clubmate and the Met outd6or champion; ' Herb / ,Weast, former Columbia sprinter running for the New YorkA •.C.; Jerry 'Fangboner, Ne,y York · University; and He1·b Thompson, 1939 national indoor champion. The gwi was fired and the five sprinters whirled up the straightaway. The winner was Carey, who defeated Weast by inches. The time of 6. 3. Cllt a tenth fro ,m the meet record set_ in 1923 by Bob McAllister, the man they called "The Flying Cop." But the real story of the race was Thotnpson, who pulled up lame and finished last •. It was Herb's first i·ace after an· eight month layoff _because of several muscle pulls dur~g the 1940 indoor season.. , 1 Thompson's injury kept him out of the Millrose Games .• With Ben Johnson, Matty Glickman and Perrin Walker retired from track, new life was brought into the indoor sprint ··races when Har .old Davis was invited to compete in the Millrose Garnes .• Davis, from 'Salinas I Junior College in California, was the U.S. outdoor sprint chan;ipion. . ...\ The Californian got off to a successful start too. He won his heat in 6. 3. Others to take heats were Bille arter, Hal Stickel and ,Barney Ewell. Stickel and Ewell were''elirninated in the first semifinal by Tom Carey and Dave Lawyer.

Davis and Ewell \\'.Ontheir heats fa the 300 but Hal withdrew fr,om the final com- , " ,plaining 0f a stomach ache. Barney scooted around the boards , to win a fast ·3l)0 from Stickel , in 32. o.

Ew~ll did not runin the Boston A.A. 50 but the field was a good one. It included Carter, Stickel, Peacocl~, Davis, Leo Tarrant -0f Alabama State, Bob Jackson of Princeton and · Thompson. · . , . . . . _, The ~printing started with a meet· and Boston Garden record of 5. 4 returned -by Davis in winning hisheat. Tarrant also tied the record in his heat beating Curter. In the fi:r~t '_semi-final, the record was again lowered when Thompson ran 5, 3 to edge Davis~· It was , ' Hal's first indoor defeat. Now everyon~ was wondering whether Davis, the outdqo:i;-cliampion, . could come back and beat Thompson, the indoor king, in the final. \ ' ' , All eyes were on, Herb and Hal as they lined up for the final YJith Tarrant and Stickel. The gun sounded and all four were off like a streak. Davis was not in the race until the last 20 yards. Then, with great powerful strides the Californian closed on the fiel~ and beat Thompson by inches. Tarrant was third ' in-a blanket · finish as Stickel fell across the fini~h line, ' Y - · . . · , \ ' , Thompson "and ~wellqid not nm · in the New York A,1.C. fD~etand Davis returned to _Cal~fornia. Carter won the 60 in 6. 3, beating East, Sticke,l a,nd Lawyer. Thompson:s legs . see1ned to be "better and he was ready to .face Ewell and.,,Mozelle Ellerbe in the . ~ational AAU _ championships. After the heats, Ellerbe and Ewell eliminated Tarrant and Weast in the first semi, Thompson and Peacock eliminated East. Casualties in the heats 'we-re-Boyce Gatewood of Texas, Billy Brown of Louisima State and Carey. In the final, Thompson re-:- . gained the title he had won in 1939 by beating Ewell and Ellerbe.
