Miss /IcMillan’s previous best was 21-7 at [ i 'TMeFernational meet in Gzechoslo- Saturday at College Station. He be comes the fourth SWC tosser to al ready better the 1971 winning throw of 171-6. Stewart’s throw, a distant second to the SWC best of204-11 by Texas Jim McGoldriek, would have been long enough to win 53 ol tbe prev ions 60 championships awarded by tbe conference. There is one possible drawback to all these projected marks for a quar ter of acentury hence — namely, the possibility of converting to the met ric system. Somehow, a long jump of 37 feet 1 inch seems a lot more of an accom plishment than a long jump of 11.1 meters. Note: Only top mark carried for each performer.
