may become 'best'

DALLAS — Big-time track and
field came to Texas last weekend and
it appears that it will be back.
“There’s no doubt, ” said world in
door mile record holder Eamonn
Coghlan of Ireland, “that this will
become one of the best, if not the
best, indoor meets in the United
States. There is no doubt.”
Coghlan and a field of internation
al stars took part in the first Dallas
Times Herald Invitational, a meet
held in the 1-year-old Reunion
Arena.
A crowd of almost 12,000 showed
up despite inclement weather and
for their troubles they saw two world
records, one American record and
the longest triple jump ever re
corded in this country.
The performances were helped
along by a new track built for the
occasion and all the competitors
agreed it was extra fast.
“We were helped by the fact that
the track was very fast,” said Stanley
Floyd, who broke the world record
in the 60-yard dash with a clocking of
6.04. “And we were helped by there
being a great field here. It was the
best field I’ve ever competed against
in a 60-yard race. ”
Floyd, now enrolled at the Uni
versity of Houston, was timed in 6.04
in both his trial heat and in the finals,
where he nipped Georgia’s Mel Lat-
tany. Among the also-rans were Har
vey Glance, Herkie Walls, Jerome
Deal and Georgia football star Hers-
chel Walker, who finished fourth in
his heat and did not make the finals.
Alice Brown, running for the
Shaklee Track Club in Los Angeles,
also set a world record of 6.62 in the
women’s 60.
