J Thursday, February 12, 1953 THE BATTALION Page 5 Jump Disqualified (Continued from Page 4) The announcement was made to the spectators that the high jump bar had been set at 7 ft. 1/8 inch, and that Davis would try for a new world’s record. He cleared the bar on his second leap, and the official jockeying began. After lengthy measurements and counter-measurements, it was announced that Davis had cleared the bar it 6 ft., HVz inches for a ffP A Record of Your Health Each prescription we fill is saved for future reference.

However, after an additional hour of measuring and consulta tions between officials, it was de cided that a one inch rise in the ground to the left of Davis’ take off area disqualified the jump from consideration as a world’s record. They added that the NCAA rules made the leap an official G ft., 10inches, which was one half inch short of a new world mark. So Davis, who actually and phy sically leaped 6 ft., 11% inches, was informed that not only was that mark unacceptable under NC AA rules, but also wouldn’t be the SWC mark. His jump was officially recorded at the NCAA height of G ft., 10% inches—this on the same afternoon that wind-blown* sprinters were shattering SWC records like Chi- naware. Up-Blowing Wind Wonder what kind of SWC mark the pole vaulters might set if they ever catch the wind blowing straight up ? It is such haphazard regulations as these that cause articles like that written by Jesse Abramson in the August 1952 Sport maga zine. In discussing Olympic pros pects for the Games in Helsinki, Abramson, weighing Russia’s chances in the sprint events, says, “Russia’s best is Vladimir Sukhar- yev, credited with 10.3 twice last year( for 100 meters), though Sukharyev’s times may have no more significance than the fancy clockings attributed each year to Texas sprinters.” Mothers Clubs Leaders Will Meet Here May 9 The executive committee of the A&M Mothers Clubs will hold its annual meeting May 9 in the MSC Social Room.
