V In toe 100, Stanford broke the old
^record of 39.9 set by a 1964 Aus¬
tralian National team.
Their 39.7 effort also es¬
tablished, obviously, a new
American record, breaking toe
^old one of 40.0 by the Univ. of
Texas, to 1957 and the WCR rec¬
ord, set last year by Univ. of New
Mexico ln 40.4.
Stanford Coach Payton Jordan
said, *Wo worked harder than
ever this week on baton passing.
You gotta have luck and we got
ours this Ur.ie. Our boys have
been on toe verge of something
aU year. They are certainly de¬
serving.*
Univ. of New Mexico was figur¬
ed to take toe event with their
foursome led by Bernle Rivers;
however, toe Lobos finished third
behind San Jose with an Identical
time of 40.1.
Questad also felt that the pass¬
ing was Uie key to the victory.
In giving his version he pointed
out toat, "I figured we could nin

Geoff Pyne pace him to a 5,000-
meter victory In the feature Sat¬
urday afternoon race, In 14:09.G.
This was Brown's best effort.
His previous best was 14:10.8.
Brown thought, "Pyne made a
strategical error ln not letting me
pass on the slxto or seventh laps.
Consequently, he acted as a wind
break for me and Uie wind hurt
him tremendously on toe back

Sensational Washington State
freshman, Gerry Lindgren,
brought toe fans to their feet as
they urged him home with astand-
lng   ovation   and   two   records.
Lindgren set a new National
college freshman record with an
8:40.1 clocking. The old record
was set ln 1961 by Mike Wlggs
of   Southern   Ullnois  ln  8:53.4.
A new stadium record was set
at toe same time, breaking Ron
Davis' 1964 record of 9:04.2.
Davis ran for toe Golden Gate
Track Club.
Lewis Scott of Arizona State
and Roger Maxfleld finished sec¬

9:08.7 times respectively.

Coach Pete Belden, standing
nervously half-way up toe dugout
steps, was contemplating a stra¬
tegic move. *
After the BuUdogs blew Fri¬

The scheduled batter for Fres¬

handed hitter who was hlUess ln

the mound for the Mustangs was

The law of averages ln base¬
ball says a rlghthanded hurler
has a distinct advantage on a
