Associated Press
RAEFORD, N.C. — Kathy
thelirsi LMillan, a senior at Hoke High
reuseanjhool, has exceeded the listed
, U r race mehcan record in the women’s
r cars st >ng jump.
the Plif Miss McMillan leaped 21 feet, 7'/2
dies Monday in a triangular high
L'hool meet. The distance will estab-
vvliy A shan American women’s record if it
iss Cut ; accepted by the Amateur Athletic
ngle Hnion.
lie, it*I It bettered the previous American
i noteW’lark of 21-714, set by Martha Wat-
han liui'bn in Stockholm in 1974. 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.
