comparisons of marks made at Melbourne with those of Canada's heroes of put Olympics point up the amazing progress the worlds athletes have made.

in 1928 Percy Williams of Van- couver thrilled all Canada with his duubie victory in the 100 - metre and 200-metre sprints - just as Bobby Morrow of San Benito, Texas. thrilled the United States with his double at Melbourne.

Williams won the 100 - metre

sprint in 10-! seconds. Morrow did it despite an adverse wind. in 10.5 after equalling the Olympic record of 10.3 in a preliminary heat.

This year Williams wouldn't have got past the semi-finals with his 10.8. The slowest time for a qualifier in the semi-finals at Met- bourne was 10.8.

BLOW!-EST WAS FASTER

Williams won his gold medal in the 200-metre sprint in 21.8. Mor- row dld it in ms for an Olympic record, The slowest qualifier in the semi-final was clocked in 21.4, faster than Williams. Slowest in the final-was 21.3. Back in lmii Bobby Kerr oi Hamilton wontthe same sprint in 22.8.

Wallace Says He DicIn't Get Fair Deal In Anthony Scrap

NEW YORK (CPL-In the ana- inmy of a prize fighter, the rela- tive strength or weakness of the jaw bone usually is the key fac- tor determing success in the ring. But with Gordon Wallace it's his kncecap.

The British Empire light heavy- uoight champion Friday night was sent sailing through the ropes oi the Madison Square Garden ring in the first round by the vvallop- mg punches of Tony Anthony New York.

Walisc'e clambercd back in but was counted out by referee Barney Felix who ruled the Brantiord. 0nt.. fighter wasn't on his feet in time.

The controversy centred around Wallace's kneecap- hether it was on the canvas or oil when Felix counted 10.

Felix said it was on the can- vas. Wallace and his manslers said it wasn't.

DIVIDED OPINION

Sportswriters who watched the 1:34 - second knockout were di-

vided. Al Buck of the New York Post said he thought Wallace was stand-

up.

Lester Brombers. Wrlllnl in the World - Telegram. said "though Wallace got a shabby deal. he wasn't going anywhere in the fight."

Ceswell Adams of the Journal- Ameriean agreed with the refer- ee's decision.

"There are those . . . who said that Wallace beat the arlthinetlcs of Barney Flex, referee. but this observer has great respect for Barney's ability to add in time."

ROBBED

Frank Bricker and Harry Shep- pard. Wallace's managers. were Irate at the referees decision. They both claimed their fighter was on his feet at the nine-count

Wallace himself thought the 10- round hout should have been con- tinued,

"I don't think I got a fair deal. I was back through the ropes at eight and in shape to continue."

The ' ockout was Wallace's fifth. He entered the ring a 4-1 un- derdog carrying l64 pounds and a record of 31 victories in 4:! fights including 15 knockouts.

Anthony, who outweighed the

of former Canadian lumberjack by

We pounds. brought his record to :9-4 with In knockouts.
