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

new world’s record, and that mark
went opt over the nation’s wire.
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.”
