Yesterday’s
By Jack Sullivan OLYMPIC STADIUM. Wembley, Aux. a - (c?) - A wing-footed Netherlands mother set. a world's record to win her second victory of the 14th Olympics today, and ipfifidy Mal Whitfield 0f the Unit- ed States advanced toward his. American Bill Porter led two team-mates to a three-way win in the 1l0-metre high hurdles. while the greatest hurxller of them all watched from the sidelines.
Big Bob McFarlane of London, Ont, despite a bandaged . knee. fought his way through two pre. limlnaries into tomorrow's semi- finals of the 400 metres.
Those are the highlights of the Olympic Games‘ fifth day of 'com- petition. One world and six Oly-mpic records fell. But the time-cutting performance of 30- vcar-old -Fanny BlankersKcen was the outstanding performance. Yesterday the Nethcrlander, to win a preliminary heat. set an Olympic mark of 11.3 seconds for the 80~metre women's hurdlosTo- day she trimmed off another tenth to break a nine-year-old world record which she matched in 1942.
If she hadn't set a record. she'd have lost the race.‘ Secondqolace Maurine Gardner of Britain. bare inches behind, was clocked in the same 11.2.
Started Monday
Mrs. Blankers-Koen started her winning streak Monday with the IOO-metre championship. She still has the high jump and relay race to go. That means a chance for four gold-medal victories-a rec- ord never equalled in Olympics competition. Babe Didrickson of the United States won three in 1936.
Shaping up inthe 400—MoI-'ar- lane's event-As one of the great battles of the games. Whitfieid,the flashy Negro who earlier won the BOO-metre run in Olympic-record time. is in the semi-finals. So are such greats as Herb McKenley and Arthur Wint of Jamaica and Dave Bolen of the UniterLStates. three other Negroes expected to turn the final into an epic race.
Porter's win in t-he lltl-metre hurdles gave the United States men's track and field team its eighth Olympic championship. The ‘JLyear-old former naval ensign jumped the sticks in 13.9 seconds two-tenths less than the record .pf American Forrest Towns at Berlin 12 years ago.
Watching him was lanky Har. rison Dillard, world-champion hurdler who flunked t-he United States trials. snealcedln as a third- choice sprinter and won the 100- metre dash. Men in the know pre. dlcted he'd have beaten Porters time today if he'd been allowed to run.
King, Queen Watch Show
More than 70.000 persons were in Wembley Stadium this afternoon to watch the record-breaking ahow, the King and Queen among them for a while. Nine championships, in all. were decided there. in Em- pire Pocl and down at Blsley.
