EDITOR’S MESSAGE • CROSS-COUNTRY SCHEDULES NEEDED: - Gads, it's that time of year again (sooner than you think)! Each year we ask that our readers send us X-C schedules so that we can compile a complete(?) list of meets in NorCal for the fall season. The usual pitiful response is about a half-dozen or so schedules, and then I have to spend many hours calling and writing peo­ ple to get them myself. So this year, I hope that I can get more of you to help us out. It really isn't that much work (putting one in the mail)! If everyone would pitch in and do these little things it would certainly make my jog a lot eas­ ier. Thanks! We'll need any and all scheduling information by not later than Aug. 20th please. That's not to say we don't want them later than that, but we may not be able to use them for next issue after that date. In particular, we need anything & everything in the way of big meets (invitationals, championships, etc.)...high school, college, agegroup, women, you name it! • NEED NEW STAFF WRITER: - We're looking for a volunteer staff writer who is fairly knowledgeable in track & field and long distance running and who has a reasonable ability to write articles (without my having to spend a lot of time editing). Tom Jordan's hours are limited and we need a replacement, preferrably immediately, so if you're interested in finding out more of what's required, give me a call. It requires probably an hour's work per issue! • POSSIBLE PAYMENT FOR ALL PRINTED PHOTOS IN FUTURE? - We still aren't in a position where we can pay $5/photo. This magazine nets very little profit anyway, and we like to help out needy athletes in their travels with what money we do make. But someone suggested that we might possibly get more response to our pleas for contributions if we'd pay a buck for each pic­ ture we printed. Now that isn't much, but if you get a couple in each issue, it's better than nothing. If we went to this method, we'd have to pay the same amount for the cover photo too (or at least lower it to $5). Let me know your feelings on this proposal and hopefully we can implement our new plan by next issue if there is enough positive feedback...or would you still rather take a chance at winning $15 for the cover and nothing for anything else? • REGARDING LDR TRAVEL FUND: - Funds collected by various means to help local athletes attend national meets do not just 'happen to appear'. Thanks to those who volunteered to sell Bay-to-Breakers shirts at the race this year...there certainly wasn't a huge rush of people to help. Those that did help out were primarily those that will probably never win a free trip on LDR funds. Seems like those that have a crack at winning something should do more to help build the fund...don't wonder why no money is available otherwise. If you can offer your services and/or suggestions, contact Judy Leydig (above addr.).

PHOTO QUIZ RULES: (1) Submit your guess to: Photo Quiz, P.O. Box 1551, San Ma­ teo, CA 94401 (one guess per person please)...all guesses must be post­ marked by Aug. 20th. (2) All ties will be broken by a drawing. The prize is a one-year subscription or renewal to the NCRR (or $6 off dues for WVTC members). All of our rea­ ders are encouraged to submit pho­ tos for consideration. We need one Who is thiswell-known for next time! NorCal runner (hint... **LAST MONTH** The correct it's notLawrence of answer for last issue's quiz was Arabia)? ex-Cal sprinter, Eddie Hart, who was one of the sprinters at Munich who missed his 100-meter heat because of time-schedule mixups. Eddie is now head coach at the College of Alameda. Only 7 correct answers were received, and Tom Castro was the winner by drawing. Two others guessed incorrectly (Steve Williams & Larry James, neither of whom were 1972 Olympians). As an extra bonus on this month's quiz— if the winner also guesses where the photo was taken (what event), a lifetime sub­ scription will be given! That's NCRR lifetime (not yours)!

THIS & THAT • PEOPLE NEWS: - In a tragic accident at the recent PA-AAU Track & Field Championships, at Diablo Valley College, longtime AAU official Maree Louise Rodebaugh of Sacramento was fatally injured when she was struck in the back area by a 16-pound shot­ put during a warmup toss.. Several other officials were narrowly missed as they stood near the edge of the shot sector, failing to see the approaching implement. Rodebaugh was instrumental in organizing the Golden West Invitational, which annually serves as one of America's great 'prep classics'. Proceeds raised from this meet are donated to youth-oriented charities in the metro­ politan Sacramento area. As one of those persons who always got involved in helping our sport, she will not be easily replaced. As a friend to many of us in NorCal track circles, her loss will touch us deeply. It is hoped that her memory will serve as an inspiration for others to follow in her footsteps. — Pablo Drobny, who used to live in Berkeley, and then Seattle, has now relocated in Southern California. He had occasion to visit Ber­ muda in early June on a business trip and reports he was inspired to see so many runners early in the morning. Perhaps one of the reasons that running is making such inroads on the island is be­ cause Bermuda is a runner's paradise...meandering roads, rolling hills, gorgeous beaches, flowers everywhere, and warm (but dry) weather. The only problem, he reports, is that one must keep re­ minding himself of the fact that traffic runs on the left, as in England. — Ron Wayne got a trip to Holland for the Amsterdam Marathon on May 21st, only a month after he grabbed fourth place at Boston. He placed a good sixth in a field that included Will Rogers (2:12:46 winner), Dan McDaide (Ireland, 2:16:14), and Ian Thompson (England, 2:17+ in fourth). Ron's time was 2:19:21. He claims that we should have placed fifth in about 2:18, but 'hit the wall' with a mile to go. — We made an error in report­ ing the results of the Inspiration Point Run in last issue...ac­ tually the error was in the results and we copied it. The second woman finisher was Mary Gaffield (reported as Mark) in 105th with a time of 53:19, not Judith Harte (reported as Narte last time). — Payton Jordan, Stanford University's head track and field coach, set two world age-group records of 12.2 (100m) and 24.9 (200m) at the 3rd Annual Western Regional Masters Championships at Santa Ana College on June 18-19. Jordan, who turned 60 re­ cently, had the old marks at 12.3 and 25.2, which he set last month (May). — Ted Cain, 40, of Novato, established three Am­ erican records in the 40-44 age-group at the same meet with times of 51.0 (400m), 56.4 (400mIH), and 15.1 (110mHH). • WORLD MASTERS CHAMPIONSHIPS: - Over 3500 athletes from 40 nations are expected to compete in the second annual affair, to be held in Gotebory, Sweden, from August 8-13. • RACE INFORMATION: - Note that the new 1977-78 PA-AAU Long Distance Schedule/Handbook, put together by Harold & Penny De­ Moss, is now available, beginning and ending with Aug. 1st. See small display advertisement near the scheduling section for cost and mailing address. Also available from the DeMoss' or Jack Leydig at many road runs...all proceeds from sales go to the LDR Travel Fund. — The New York City Marathon is limiting the en­ try field to the first 3000 this year, so if you're planning on -4-

going (see NCRR Tour Information ad elsewhere in this issue), you had best get your entry in soon...see scheduling section for address (be sure to send a self-addressed, stamped envel­ ope with your request). — The Pamakid Relays, which were run around Lake Merced in June, featured legs that were a bit short (quite a bit) of the advertised 4.7 miles. Each loop around the lake measured out at 4.492 miles, according to our local 'Certification Chairman', Sheldon Gersh. — The Tahoe Relays are on (13th annual) this year after all, but the Meet Director, Bob DeCelle, for whose son the race is named, is going to need help (at registration and on the course...timers and recorders). So if you're planning on making the trip up to watch (or are planning to run early and can help later on, or visa versa), you can be a big help by volunteering some of your time. All proceeds from the race go to the PA-AAU LDR Travel Fund. If you are willing to pitch in and give a hand on this one, please call Bob at work (415/523-2264), or drop him a note: P.O. Box 1606, Alameda, CA 94501. Thanks! — - The start of the Daly City 10-Kilo Run will not be at Gellert Park (as stated in the LDR Handbook), but will be at Westmoor High School instead. — The National AAU Masters Marathon for Wo­ men will be held concurrently with the Women's Nationals in Minnesota in late October, not in New York City, as was pre­ viously thought. This word comes to us from Ruth Anderson. The Men's Masters National Marathon will be held concurrently with the Sr. Men's race on October 24 (New York City). — The First Annual Pan-American Masters Track & Field Champion­ ships will be held on Sept. 3-4 in Los Angeles (includes submasters events). Entries will close several weeks in advance of the meet, so enter early. See scheduling section for meet contact. --- The popular Ft. Baker Handicap (15-miles) race has been cancelled. Originally scheduled for Aug. 7, meet director John Hutchinson informed me yesterday that Dale Pe­ terson, District Ranger for the Park Service, felt that in­ creased traffic on the route would make the run too dangerous. Granted there are some narrow stretches on the road, but if it's getting so bad we can't have runs in the boonies, where will we be able to have them? — Nike/OTC Marathon date may be September this year, and the course might also be changed. The race is usually in the second week of October. Word has it that the Nike Company is investing some money in the event this year with the intention of bringing it up to the level of some of the bigger marathons in the U.S. and elsewhere. Top female and male marathoners with world-class reputations will be invited, and the September date is obviously being pondered so as not to interfere/conflict with the two big na­ tional marathon championships in late October. By the time our next issue goes to press, it may be too late to let our readers know the exact date, so if you wash more information, contact: Oregon T.C., P.O. Box 1107, Eugene, OR 97401. ,

P h o to C o n test So far we've only received a total of 7 entries (July 5th) in our photo contest, so we're extending the contest dead­ line to Sept. 1, 1977. We want to get at least enough en­ tries to pay for the prizes ($100 worth). The: prize money will be distributed as follows: 1st ($50); 2nd ($25); 3rd ($15); 4th & 5th ($5 each). RULES: - Limited to black & white prints only...photos are to be related to running or its affiliated activities... subject matter may be of a race, training, crowds, or any activity directly connected with running. Photos will be judged on composition, subject matter, print quality, and use of light and dark. Each photo should be 8x10, glossy, and accompanied by name, address & phone of entrant (also identify subject matter if possible). Entry Fee for each photo submitted will be $2.00. Send all entries t o : Photo Contest, c/o N.C.R.R., P.O. Box 1551, San Mateo, CA 94401 (checks payable to West Valley TC). If you send photos along with non-contest material, be sure to identify your 'contest photos'. We will have three judges: Linda Boyd, Lorraine Rorke, and John Marconi...see issue #65 for per­ sonal data on them. Winning prints will be published in issue #68 (Sept./Oct.) of the NCRR. All prints become property of the NCRR. If we don't receive enough entries to cover contest prizes, we may proportion the prize money accordingly. Let's see some of our contributors get into the action (only two have done so to date!).

• DSE WOMEN MAKE GUINNESS BOOK OF RECORDS: - As mentioned in the last issue, the DSE Women's 100 x 1-mile relay team set a new world record on April 3, 1977, by clocking 10:47:09.3 at the San Francisco State track. Sheldon Gersh, who applied for the recognition in the world-famous book, was informed a month la­ ter that their record was accepted and would appear in the next edition, assuming it is not overtaken in the meantime. • FIRST ANNUAL RUNNERS FILM FESTIVAL: - Announcing two show­ ings of this event: Aug. 20 (Sat.), at Cole Hall, UC Medical Center, 315 Parnassus, San Francisco; and Aug. 26 (Fri.), at Laney College Forum, 900 Falloii St., Oakland. Both showings will start at 7:30 pm and continue for approximately two hours. Admission is $1.00 (free to those under 12). Films featured will be: (1) The film "Marathon", a 1976 Olympic Trials docu­ mentary; (2) The film "Sports for Life", a documentary on the masters program; (3) A film on Ruth Anderson, top NorCal mas­ ters marathoner; (4) "Fleeting Images", a sound and slide show on the 1977 Natl. AAU Track & Field Championships (men & women) in Los Angeles, presented by Lani Bader (many of the shots in the track & field results section of this issue are by La m). For further information, contact Mike Wheeler (mornings— 4822398; evenings--530-9620). • WOULD YOU BELIEVE? - That in 1961, there was a whopping total of 31 starters and finishers in the Bay-to-Breakers Run? In those days the race went up Turk Street (before that it went up Golden Gate Ave.). Jack Marden of the Santa Clara Valley Youth Village won it that year in 43:15, and the record in those days was 42:00 by Wil ford King. SCVYV swept the top six places (the only six they entered!). Other familiar names to finish that year were: (8) James Jacobs/SFAC 45:39, (12) John Weidinger/MAC 48:09, (16) John Satti/SFAC 50:40, (22) Jack Kirk/ MAC 53:54, (23) John Dick/Un 54:11, and (25) Tony Stratta/SFAC 56:02. Those years the field consisted entirely of seasoned runners, as the last finisher, Garfield Vigil/SFAC, was clocked in under an hour at 59:25. My how times have changed! The fol­ lowing year, the race was won in record time by Jim Shettler in 41:25.3 (a tenth of a second ahead of Darryl Beardall!). -5-

• NEW PA-AAU OFFICERS: - On June 6 at the Lake Merced Boat­ house, the Annual meeting of the Pacific Association of the AAU took place, with the following officers and committee mem­ bers being elected: Pres.-George Shistar; Vice-Pres.-Roxanne Andersen; Seer.-Andrew Burke; Treas.-Bob DeCelle; Reg.Chrmn.Mary Lou Shistar; Exec. Committee-Mel Augustine, Dean Dilling­ ham, Jacquie Dillingham, Carolyn Finneran, Dave Murphy, and Adam Szmidt. • RRCA INFORMATION AVAILABLE: - Two informative booklets are now available free from the Road Runners Club of America. The RRCA is a national organization of groups which conduct races and fun runs and are not 'competitive' clubs as such, as commonly thought of in the AAU sense. If you are thinking of starting a running program in your hometown, one of these booklets might be of interest to you. One booklet describes the many programs of the RRCA, while the other is a brief 'how to' booklet which explains step by step 'how to start a run­ ning club*. The pamphlet 1s designed for those interested in starting a club which will conduct running events in their area, as opposed to a competitive club. Locally, these two booklets may be obtained from the Western Regional Vice-Pres., Don Chaffee, 545 Kirkham St., San Francisco, CA 94122. • FITNESS EVALUATION CENTER: - Announcing the opening of VITAL, Fitness Evaluation Center, located in San Francisco at One Embarcadero Center (Suite 1807). Five basic areas of physical fitness are considered in the evaluation: (1) Risk Factor Analysis, including cholesterol and triglyceride values; (2) Pulmonary Function; (3) Musculoskeletal strength, flexi­ bility, and endurance; (4) Body Composition, including under­ water weighing for percent body fat; and (5) Cardiovascular capacity, including direct measurement of oxygen uptake dur­ ing a maximal treadmill test. VITAL is headed by Cardiolo­ gist, Charles M. Wunsch, M.D., who also has a cardiac rehabil­ itation program at Doctor's Hospital in San Leandro. • WHAT SCHOOL SUBJECT IS MOST USELESS? - This question was asked various people on the street in the S.F. C h ron icle’s daily 'Question Man' column. One of the answers came from an obvious non-runner, Mark Sparks: "Physical Education is a big waste of time because nothing happens. You don't do anything. It's just a bunch of running around and some exercises. Exer­ cise doesn't do you any good." Perhaps Mark is a bit misin­ formed on the subject? • RUNNER'S HOUSING LIST: - I was pondering the idea of es­ tablishing regional co-ordinators throughout California for the purpose of supplying free 'crash space' for fellow ath­ letes travelling to meets from out of town. Each co-ordinator would keep a W s t of 'available housing', and interested peo­ ple would simply check with these co-ordinators for current availability if they were planning on competing in a given area. The co-ordinators would list the crashpads by location, maximum numbers accomodated, sleeping bags needed, etc. If anyone is interested in volunteering for this type of thing, I'd be happy to publicize it in the NCRR and throughout local newsletters in California. If I don't get volunteers, I don't plan on going around asking for them...perhaps some areas may need several people doing the job. Write to the editor if you think you'd be interested or have ideas on the subject. • ADIDAS & HOLIDAY INN AIDING AAU PROGRAM: - The Holiday Inn hotel chain has become a national sponsor for the AAU. Each night any AAU member occupies a Holiday Inn room, the sport or Association will receive 25£ for their team funds. A contract with adidas, which will run through 1981, will: (1) Provide the AAU track & field program with a cash donation of $40,000 annually; (2) Donate 250 uniforms, sweatsuits, and rainsuits for U.S. National teams...an estimated $30,000 worth of mer­ chandise. Evidently several other sportswear companies were in­ terested in AAU track sponsorship, but adidas made the most solid offer. Another point brought out was that according to new IAAF rules adopted at the Montreal congress, an amateur athlete can now legally appear in a commercial for an organi­ zation that sponsors a national governing body. For example, any AAU athlete could appear in a commercial for Holiday Inns, which recently signed a contract as a national AAU sponsor. • NEEDED— MASTERS WOMEN'S STATISTICS: - Katharine Brieger of Berkeley has recently been appointed as the statistician for the Women's Masters Track & Field Committee, and she has been directed to establish and maintain age-group records and national rankings. All women over 30 should submit their best marks, their exact birthdates, events, marks, and dates & lo­ cations of meets involved. Send them to: Katharine Brieger, 1211 Grizzly Peak Blvd., Berkeley, CA 94708. They will be re­ viewed and approved for national rankings. Records are also being compiled for our PA-AAU District. At a later date we will list marks, when the lists begin to 'fill out'.

LDR. There is no reason for a separate committee. (3) For merger: Separate committees serve to split the movement. Be­ sides, many Masters compete in both T&F and LDR and it would be difficult to separate their interests. The dues checkoff system will be easier to maintain and potential national spon­ sors would more readily deal with one than with two committees. A unified committee is needed to deal with the IAAF. Since most of the active individuals and clubs are involved with both LDR and T&F, separate committees would inhibit develop­ ment of the overall movement. (Ed. - One should ponder whe­ ther Masters would run into any problems different than the Open LDR Committee when they became autonomous. The above discussion is brief, but your discussion and feedback is in­ strumental. Please send your 'vote' to: Robert Fine, 77 Pro­ spect Pi., Brooklyn, New York 1 1 2 1 7 . Be sure to include your name and address, your signature, and your age.)

NCRR LONG DISTANCE POINT TOTALS SPA-AAU STANDINGS: - Nobody has stepped forth to volunteer as 'chairman' for Southern California totals, so we have no other choice but to discontinue listing them. If at some future date someone wants to take up where Stan Rosenfield left off, we'll be happy to list the standings again. Thanks, Stan, for help­ ing out for all the years you did. You're a rare breed!

• DON HUFF turned out to be the second over-40 finisher at the Inspiration Point Run (results in last issue). The results did not indicate 'masters' runners, so we had to guess and in­ advertently left Don out. Incidently, Don is 52! Anyone else we missed noting as a master in the results last time? • TO ALL MASTERS: "Should the Masters have separate commit­ tees for track & field and long distance running? Should there be just one masters athletic committee? Or should the Masters Long Distance Running Committee be placed under the jurisdic­ tion of the open Long Distance Running Committee?" — These questions are of prime importance to the Masters' movement and involve the question of jurisdiction within the AAU of over40 athletes. These questions may seem unimportant to the ath­ lete who may feel that all that has to be done is to show up for a race. However, these questions are important, as they determine who will direct the program, who will make the rules, and who will select the Championship sites. Towards a final determination of this question, which has been unresolved for the past four years, Robert Fine (Chairman, Masters Track & Field Comm, of the AAU) is requesting that all Masters competi­ tors write back and vote on one of the three proposals. Some background: The Masters originally were only sub-committees of the four standing committees in athletics (Track & Field Men; T&F Women; Long Distance Running; Race Walking). In 1975, Mas­ ters T&F became a separate standing committee. Thereafter, the AAU Law Chairman interpreted the change to give Masters T&F jurisdiction over all Masters athletics. This was challenged by the LDR Chairman in 1976. A compromise was reached in which all parties agreed to the creation of s separate Masters LDR Committee with the understanding that Masters T&F and Masters LDR could, if the wished to do so, merge in the future. The purpose of this inquiry is to determine what the Masters would prefer: (1) Against merger: The integrity of the LDR movement can be better maintained. The majority of Masters compete in LDR and their dues (50<t) should stay in the LDR program. The program is so extensive that a separate committee is justified. (2) Returning the Masters to the Open LDR Committee: The Mas­ ters is really an age-group program, and as such, belongs under

PA-AAU STANDINGS: (Compiled by Art Dudley) - Rather than do a 'table listing' in this issue, we're eliminating that feature from this issue because we're cramped for space with many re­ sults. In the next issue we'll have a better representation anyway...right now we've got spotty results from June. By the next issue we'll hopefully have all results up through the Tahoe Relays (which we don't count, by the way). In case you're not familiar with our rating system, here is how it works: We count only top placings for a person's rating (top 10 for 'open', top 6 for masters, and top 4 for women), thus, a woman who places 5th in a race is not counted for our rating purposes, etc. We generally count all PA-AAU sanctioned races and some others if participation is high. Some races have very poor attendance (in a particular division or overall), and we may choose to omit them, but we generally count any race that is of marathon distance or longer on 'principle'. Only 'area' athletes count in the scoring...thus, if a non­ resident wins a race, the first resident finisher will count for 'first' in the ratings. Our system is a blend of quality and quantity. To determine a person's rating, we take the average place (using only finishes in a 'countable' position) and divide that by the number of races. For example: a run­ ner finishes 1st, 2nd, and 4th in three races and has a com­ puted 'rating' of (l+2+4)/3/3...average place divided by num­ ber of races run...or 7/9 = 0.778. Simple, huh? This issue's standings run thru Ma y, with the following exceptions: Results not received or waiting for confirmation of finish order on certain divisions: Inspiration Point Run, May Day Run, Avenue of the Giants Marathon, Angel Island Run, TRAC 10-Kilo, PA-AAU Hour Run (Note: some of the above races have results listed in the back of this issue, but we didn't receive them in time to send to Art for computation...he lives in Fresno). Races not counted: (Small or non-competitive fields)— Bidwell Classic 3-Miler (Masters); Bidwell Classic Half-Marathon (Women); Mt. 3 -Miler (in conjunction with Redding 10-Miler). Results not received or unknown: Los Altos Midnight Run; Valentine's Day Run. Unfair Start (not counted): Bay-to-Breakers. Bill Clark has taken over the current lead in the "Open" race, with Bill Seaver and Brian Maxwell in hot pursuit. I'm sure that by the time you get this issue, the standings could easily have changed. Bill and Brian are tied with the most wins at three apiece...each has also run 5 races. Last year's winner, Jan Sershen, is currently lingering in fourth with seven races. Kent Guthrie is making a shambles of the masters race with twelve wins and no defeats thru May (at least), and a total of 0.083...he's a sure bet to set a new record, prob­ ably before half the year is over. Kent's also running tenth in the 'open' competition! Kent's nearest competition is in 2:38 marathoner, Roger Bryan, who's just ahead of Division II runner, Jim O'Neil. Last year's champ, Ralph Bowles, is ano­ ther notch back--Darryl Beardall, with only three races to his credit, is in fifth and should move up with a few more runs. Judy Leydig continues to hold the women's lead with 0.245, and surprising Merill Cray of Chico is next. Ruth Anderson rounds out the top three as the only masters runner to crack 1.00 in the women's field. Both Judy and Merill have won four races apiece, and Penny DeMoss has three wins in four races.

He started his record-setting at the National 20-Kilo in Seattle in early June with a third-place finish behind a Mexican and Todd Scully, clocking a super-fast 1:31:29, and leading WVTC to the team title. He and Todd were chosen for the US European Tour in the walks. Neal had some bad luck at the first meet vs. Italy with a DQ status, but he then came roaring back to a win vs. West Germany and an Ameri­ can record over 10K at 42:22.6 (on the track we presume). As if that wasn't enough, he proceeded to annihilate the Russian walkers with another US mark a week later over 20K (1:28:17.4). This was a new American record by almost two full minutes! The other walkers on the club haven't been sitting still ei­ ther. Tom Dooley established a new 50K standard of 4:35:38 in March, and then stepped off a 1:34:09 for 20K a few months la­ ter, setting a short-lived mark. That time was then the fast­ est in the U.S. thru April as reported by Track & Field News. Another club record (we think) was set by Pyke over the hour run at 8 miles, 240 yards, sometime in May. Walkers— please send your best hour marks while members of WVTC so we may com­ pile an all-time list (we don't seem to have them). Sally Mc­ Pherson has been setting walk marks on the women's end...she stepped to a fine 57:29 for 10K on the track in March. She lowered her club record at half that distance to 26:18.4 (from 27:00) and took sixth at the AAU's with that time. A week la­ ter at the Natl. 10K at Stanford (track), she placed third, qualifying for the US World Championship team with a super time of 54:10.2...she will go to Sweden in August if she can get enough money together (donations are being accepted)... since women's walking is not an Olympic sport, the USOC is not funding any of our women walkers to the World Championships!

(Club Records... continued): All the other club standards that we know about came in the middle and distance events. Rich Nichols, after many attempts, finally qualified for the Nation­ al AAU Championships (barely) with a PR 1:48.7 for 800 meters. He did that at the Muhammad Ali Meet, taking a full second from one of the oldest records on the club's books...the 1:49.7 by Duncan Macdonald back in June of 1972. Rod Berry, a junior at Larkspur's Redwood High School, notched two club high school records with an 8:53.4 two-mile (2nd at the State Meet), and a 29:13+ (don't have the tenths yet) for six miles at the Lompoc Flower Festival (USTFF Jr. 10,000m Championships), also in se­ cond. Bob Grubbs' 8:54.6 and Roy Kissin's 29:21.2 were the previous bests by WVTC preps. Judy Leydig was on the recordbooks twice with a 37:42.8 qualifying time for 10,000 meters at S.F. State (June 2), and then with a 37:35.7 (rounded up to 37:35.8) over the same distance at the National AAU Champion­ ships at UCLA. No other WVTC woman has yet run a track 10K. Out in Hawaii, sub-master Jim Barker cranked off a 5:35:41 for 50 miles in April, the best in the U.S. to that date and some 24 minutes under Jim Bowles' old club standard, set way back in October of 1971! • OTHER GOOD MARKS: - Benton Hart, who just joined the club in May, was second at the Cal Relays with a fine 13:54.0m. He lowered his PR to 13:49.9 at the Prefontaine Classic in midJune and now moves into second spot on the all-time club list behind Domingo Tibaduiza's 13:43.4, set three years ago. Rich Nichols recorded a 1:50.1m for third at the Eugene Twilight Meet for a PR, prior to his club mark of 1:48.7. Judy Graham scored a second at the Cal Relays with her 4:20.2, with PhylTis Olrich clocking a 4:34.9 in fifth, just 0.2 off her PR. Judy did 9:39.9 at the Lompoc Festival over 3000m, while Phyllis was runnerup in 9:49.7. Phyllis was 9:49.9 at the AAU's while taking tenth place. Tim Holmes, who was off to a slow start because of injuries and illnesses, lowered his mile to 4:15.9 and then 4:13.9 in May. After having an unusually 'off day' at the California State Meet (9:15 or so), he came back impres­ sively for a third place at the International Prep Meet in Il­ linois with a PR 8:55.3, moving into third on the all-time club prep list. Joe Green chopped about 17 seconds from his two-mile best by taking a very close second at the Central Coast Section Meet in 9:11.71 (0.38 behind the winner). Greg Valdez, a new member and junior from Skyline High in Oakland, dipped under 9:20 with a 9:17.7 CIF finish. Dave McKenzie got a seasonal best of 205-2 in the hammer to take the runnerup position at the pretigious West Coast Relays. Hal Schulz, a frosh at CalBerkeley, lowered his steeple PR to 9:01.3 while placing seventh in the Pacific-8 title meet. He then placed third in the AAU Jr. Championships with another good time of 9:02.0, while just missing a berth on the U.S. Junior Team. Skip Peterson capped off his first season at College of San Mateo with a 24-11 long jump (legal) at the State Championships (fourth place). Bill Ranney, our newest addition to the walking clan, will be set­ ting new records in just about everything he does, as he is com­ peting in the masters class (over-40). His 23:55.6 won the PA 5-Kilo Championships. Wayne Glusker (22:49.2) and Bill Ranney took 4th and 6th respectively in the AAU's at UCLA, with Bill lowering his club masters best to 23:19.4. Richard Marks re­ corded a seasonal best of 63-3 for eighth in the shot at the same meet. Dave McKenzie tacked another 2-inches on his 1977 best with 205-4 in the hammer, good enough for sixth place at the AAU's. Kenny Kring scored a good 7091 in the decathlon at the A ll-American Decathlon in Porterville in mid-June, but he had to take a backseat to Rex Harvey's winning 7451. Bill McClellon, who is now stationed at Vandenberg AFB, competed in only one meet this season, but scored super marks (for not hav­ ing any previous background work) of 24-9*5 (club PR) and 51-8*5 in the two horizontal jumps at the Interservice Meet in Wash­ ington D.C. (June?). Those leaps netted him 4th and 2nd, re­ spectively. Both marks were non-windy. Dave Himmelberger ven­ tured down to an International Walking Week in Mexico in midApril and got a 4:46:07 (7th) at 50K (96° and altitude!). In the shorter 20K event, held a week after the 50K, he finished 20th in 1:37:37 (actual distance was 19336m, so add about 3 minutes to that time). Temperatures were again warm (90°). Dave says, "If you think the altitude in Mexico is tough (at about 7500 feet), the Mexican team had just returned from Boli­ via, where they had been training at 15,000 feet!" • WALKERS WIN NATIONAL 20K: - Neal Pyke's club record of 1:31:29 led WVTC's super team (without Glusker) to their se­ cond US title this year (35K in April). Tom Dooley (1:36:48) and Dave Himmelberger (1:37:46) rounded out the scoring, as they downed Shore AC (30) and Club Northwest (56) with a low of 22 points. Bill Ranney (1:39:53) and Bryan Snazelle (1:40:41) were ahead of Shore's third man! See Walking Sect. -8 -

• NEWS FROM MEMBERS: - Dave Romain, who we mentioned ran a great 1:53.6 for third at the SJ Invitational in April, happens to be older than we thought. Turns out he was 34 at the time, and fourth-placer Ramsay Thomas (1:54.7) was 33! We have word that Dave won something like four events at the Sr. Olympics in late June, after just turning 35. — Kenny Kring has been chosen to compete at the Maccabiah Games in Tel Aviv, Israel, on July 12-20. He went in 1973 and is very excited about re­ turning. His brother, Buddy, a 6'10" high jumper, was also selected. — Fran Conley was featured in the June 13 issue of People Magazine. — Judy Graham sadly reports that she's been fighting off some kind of virus over the past month or so and by the time of the Nationals her resistance had worn so thin that she was unable to even finish the race, despite having a seasonal best of 9:27m. She appears to be on the upswing now. Even though the Nationals are over, she hopes to run some good times this summer. Her 9:39 at the Lompoc Festival indicates that she's coming back at least. — George Stewart is back in the area for a few months, training at Lake Tahoe this summer with teammates Roy Kissin & Mike Pinocci, among others. In early August he'll be headed to Houston, Texas, to work with the VISTA program for a couple of years...get in shape George (the AAU X-C Championships are there this fall)! The fact that George is now in Houston, along with ex-member Bob Bailey, means that the club can at least save money on housing for that meet. • FATHER'S FOOTSTEPS: - Charles Michael Steffes enjoys going to track meets as he watched his father (Charles G. Steffes) triple jump 51’0" at the June 28 all-comers meet at West Valley College. For Charles Michael this makes it his third time that he's gone to a track meet to watch his father jump...nothing exceptional about that; however, Charles Michael is only 14 days old (21*5 inches; 8-lbs., 1 oz.)! Sign him up! • BICYCLE TOUR: - Just got a note from Jack Cover, who has an interesting idea for a new club activity. He's wondering if any club member has ever thought about a one-week bicycle tour for WVTC members. It could be called "The Bridge Tour"-to get from here to there...a running location for a day or two, then return. He's heard that you can cycle all the way up the California and Oregon coast, stay in hostels, and have a great time. Any volunteers for tour leaders? Interested club members could drop either me and/or Jack a line (Jack's address is: 292 Devon Dr., San Rafael 94903 (Ph. 415/479-8961). •PHONE COMMITTEE: - Only got a few responses to my plea a few issues back. P l l have to start appointing soon probably.

BODY. AMMO Protein Research Laboratories In the interest o f all serious runners, Protein Research Laboratories has developed Body Ammo — a unique system o f two products designed to help athletes increase their stam ina, train harder, recover faster, and in general enjoy running more. Body Ammo 1 and 2 are non-drug, non-toxic natural products that have been specially prepared to help m axim ize athletic perform ance under strenuous physical conditions. Both are recommended for use in the carbohydrate-loading diet.

George Sheehan in his article in the August issue of Runner's World, reported that training during the protein and fat phase of the CLD resulted in harmful muscle breakdown in some runners. This occurs as the body, after it has reduced the blood sugar concentration, and if does not have time to utilize fats will breakdown and convert proteins into energy. Hemoglobin (a protein) which plays the key role in the transportation of oxygen in the red blood cells is an early casualty to the body's conversion of proteins to energies. During the CLD, the breaking down of proteins while attempting to deplete glycogen stores is a dysfunctional aspect of the diet. The results could be muscle breakdown, unpleasant feelings or a lack of sharpness that could hamper and reduce the effectiveness of important training time. BODY AMMO 1 tablets are concentrated amino acids (explained in the enclosed letter) with the very nutritive amino acid profile of milk. They enter the bloodstream quickly and raise the amino acid level. When thebody runs low on blood sugar, amino acids in the bloodstream will be used first before hemoglobin, muscle or other body proteins. BODY AMMO 1 is ideal for easily maintaining a high amino acid level in the bloodstream during strenuous phy­ sical exertion and thus avoiding protein breakdown. This is referred to as "protein-sparing". During the days when you are eating large quantities of carbohydrates, you should not reduce protein (i.e., amino acid) intake. Joe Henderson (Editor, Runner's World) in the Runner's Diet (1972) said in presenting the carbohydrateloading diet, "the athlete should add large quantities of carbohydrates." Add is the key word, because the intake of proteins and fats should continue. BODY AMMO 1 is a practical way to provide the necessary amino acids which may tend to be excluded from the diet as large quantities of carbohydrate-rich foods are eaten. BODY AMMO 2 is helpful during the carbohydrate-loading stage of the diet. It is a convenient way to eat glucose and fructose. As fructose is converted into glycogen very quickly, BODY AMMO 2 is useful for "topping out" glycogen stocks. Fructose also increases the speed at which glucose is converted into glycogen.

Body A m m o 1 Body Ammo 1 is a com plete am ino acid supplement made from m ilk protein. By replenishing am ino acids, the “building blocks” o f the body (w hich are normally depleted during strenuous exercise), Body Ammo 1 helps to promote stam ina and speed recovery time.

Body A m m o 2 Body Am mo 2, a com bination o f the sugars glucose and fructose, offers readily available energy in concentrated form. By keeping blood sugar high, it also helps m inim ize fatigue.

"Whether we like it or not, women can no longer be passive, dependent, and fragile people. They must be and want to be ac­ tive, capable and unafraid, and even competitive and aggressive, for they are now out there in the real world. A woman and her family frequently must count on the support from her labors. Nearly half the women over sixteen want to be in the work force today, and it is anticipated that about 43 percent of the future pool will be women during the next fifteen years. Attitudes will change as a result. Sports, which used to prepare the male to cope with the competitive society, will be­ come a fertile training ground for women. The women's movement isn't just a phase which our nation is going through, but ra­ ther a new era, reflective of new needs. Women will need to learn to survive in our highly technical and competitive socie­ ty. They will need to learn new levels of self-sufficiency, and sports can play a major role in teaching them this process. In the past, and unfortunately even today, women have not competed extensively in athletics. They have not, as a group, been preoccupied with toning their bodies, sharpening their physical skills, or learning the tactics and strategies so fa­ miliar to sports. For this lack, they will pay dearly if they continue in this path, as self-dependence is an integral part of their future. There continues to be resistance to change. Many still be­ lieve that sports activity, especially that which is competi­ tive, is not appropriate for our lifestyle in America. This is particularly true when some view women in sweaty, muscle-build­ ing, and aggressive activities.Many believe that women can't take pain, stress and injury. For that matter, manyofthe public agencies consider highly competitive athletics counter­ productive for anyone, particularly women. In spite of the put-downs and perpetuation of false myths, women are turning in greater numbers to all kinds of sports activities. In New York alone, there were twice as many girls in interscholastic varsity teams last year than there were four years ago. Women are looking for training, leadership, guidance, and opportunity. Schools, recreation departments, and agencies, with some notable exceptions, have been reluctant oratleast lethargic in their initiative thus far. In 1976, the President's Commission on Olympic Sports re­ ported: 'Women continue to suffer from a lack of well-structured, varied programs, access to facilities, and proper representation in the decision and policy-making process in organizations con­ ducting sports programs.' This indictment against those organi­ zations is less than a year old.

Each of us has to be involved in a process to change it if it is going to change. Women have the responsibility to become involved, and men have an equal responsibility to en­ courage and assist, but both must strive to make sure that the true values of sport activity are equally available to all and at every level of endeavor. There is the danger of oversimplification or hawking a position of 'too little too late' or 'too much too soon' when attacking or defending those who have the responsibility to direct athletic programs. It is a vastly more complex issue, as the experiences and learning of the past are deeply in­ grained into our culture. The need for affirmative action to assist women and girls into developing life-time goals and ac­ tivities in sports is self-evident. Change comes about not from the mere mouthing of plati­ tudes but rather from specific action. Decide and act! The results are in direct relationship to effort."

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR PHIL LENIHAN (San Jose, CA) - "I take violent exception to your editorial in NCRR #65 regarding unofficial runners. Un­ official runners do not have the right to just show up and run wherever they want. A race director sets the qualifica­ tion as to who may register (this usually consists of the abi­ lity to submit an application with an AAU number and registra­ tion fee on time) and should not be burdened with non-registered runners. Unofficial runners just screw it up for all registered participants and officials. There are plenty of fun runs and places to work out. An organized race is for registered par­ ticipants ONLY. A race should not start until all unregis­ tered runners leave the starting area..."If you don't have a number, please leave." They should also be ejected from the course and barred from the finish area by a marshall. I had the finish screwed up at Paul Masson, you had your problems at your races, and I recently noted the San Jose 10K had numerous unregistered runners cross the finishline after repeated announcements at the start. To sum up my views on unregistered runners— throw the bums out." (Ed. - I ' m afraid that it takes a race director to under­ stand fully the reasons for Phil's wrath. His solution to "throw the hums out" is probably the simplest one, hut can certainly create ill feelings. I still feel that as long as unofficial runners don't actually interfere with the other runners or take aid or cross the finishline, there is no par­ ticular reason to he against them. Unfortunately, a large number of runners who choose not to officially enter will in­ variably do just that...screw it up for others. Perhaps some­ one can come up with a simple solution to the problem, short of physically evicting them from the start and during the race itself. I feel that race directors do_ hare the right to use force in stopping an unofficial runner from entering the fin­ ish area. If any of you have suggestions, please drop us a line. One other item: when you get the new PA-AAU LDR Hand­ book for the year beginning Aug. 1, 1977, please read over the introductory page on "Rules of the Road". Most o f us know the rules, but it doesn't hurt to review them. It could make for much smoother officiatinq in local runs.)

The legs of Forrest Owen Smith bulged like great undula­ ting snakes as the muscles contracted, moving his body up the weed-lined trails of Belmont's cross-country course. The thick blood vessels which fed his calves made them look like vine-covered logs. His massive frame chugged easily up the steep grades as he made good use of his well-built arms, shaped by his previous toils as a Pennsylvania iron worker.

Tim Smith (left) with Walt Stack at the DSE Women's 100-Mile Relay in April. /Len Wallach/ frequently laced with satirical asides, one would have assumed that he was still laboring on steel trestles and I-beams rather than attending his fellows with the mysteries of medicine. The initials M.D. seemed a little out of place, as well as the name Forrest Owen. "Tim" Smith, runner, writer, and doctor just doesn't fit any of the standard patterns of expectations set by others, as he not only marches to his own drum beat but doesn't mind holding his own parade as well. "I'm obsessed with running," Tim advised with uncontrolled exuberance. "I can think about it. I can write about it. But most of all I can do it," went the Smith simplistic formula for his primary basis for fun. The graduate from Duke Medical School was sweat-soaked as he gestured, making his wet T-shirt, with the emblazoned "TOTAL HEALTH", move up and down like the letters were individual puppets. The Total Health shirt is the symbol of a recent cumula­ tive effort of Dr. Smith, whose previous specialty was obste­ trics and gynecology at South San Francisco's Kaiser Hospital. After spending a significant part of his medical life seeing pa­ tients in the traditional doctor-hospital relationship and hav­ ing his emerging views tempered in the forges of his own in­ volvement in athletics, he has broken away from the mainstream to try and pioneer a new practice aimed at total health. "Health is not fragmented; it is a totality, with each segment interdependent on the other," he advised. "The approach of handling medical crisis after crisis, in my view, is a bandaid method," Dr. Smith explained. "It's like patching up an innertube, which is the basis for the crisis-orientation approach taken by American medicine," Tim elaborated. "Rather than sticking another band-aid on, giving a pill or two here and there for an illness, or repairing structure from damage, treat­ ment should be basic to prevention. I want to be the doctor that patients call before they call for the resuscitation team," he concluded, adding..."about twenty years before!" Tim's new practice brought him to the center of medicine in the city of San Mateo at 39 North San Mateo Drive, in the heart of the city's "Doctor's Row". His practice is unique in its communication technique, as his office phone is "FITTEST", un­ usual by itself, but when he's not there the tape-recorded mes­ sage even gives you a home number to reach him.Who ever heard of a doctor giving out his home phone except in the early days of Americana when the country medico tended his small-town flock. There's no medical secrecy about his approach. Standard techniques of examination, testing, vitamin therapy, exercise, and diet planning, weight control, and a lot of personal direc­ tion by Dr. Smith are used in the 12-week program. "Absolutely," he answered when asked if he would run with his patients as part of their individual programs. "But my goal is to make each as independent as I can," he added, in elaborating on his methods. "I try to explain the 'how-to' in order to develop self-reli­ ance," he said. Then he used an old parable for a clincher: "Give a man a fish to feed him for one day, but teach him how to fish and you will feed him for a lifetime." "The ancients defined 'doctor' as a teacher. A doctor gives instruction, provides specific procedures, and does things for his patients, but most of all heshould providethem with an example," the doctor in Tim Smith described. "Look, I used to weight 275 pounds and smoked two packages of cigarettes a day," he gestured. "The track became my ther­ mometer; my progress was measured in yards, not miles. People have to have marks and models to follow." Follow they have, as Tim's role in Northern California running has been a good one. Tim headed up the Dolphin South End Runners newsletter in

1976, cranking out the monthly editions that were filled with a wide range of information, data, and stories to encourage people and describe the local running scene. It was through the DSE epistle that he was able to fashion the gospel accord­ ing to Saint Tim, as he sharpened his own writing skills into a wide range of humorous scribing and editorial commentary. "I'm prone to hyperbole," he explained, once again sending me to the dictionary to understand his vocabulary, which is a cross between the seminarian-governor Gerry Brown and a touch of volatile phrases of Walt Stack. He is particularly adept in parody and has secretly threatened me with a satirical imitation of my journalistic style of innerman interviews. But like most writers would un­ der similar circumstances, decided to wait to see how he would fare under the typewriter of another word-stringer. An important contribution which he made was clouded by the achievements and media consciousness of others. With the fanfare of the world-record setting of the DSE women in the 100-mile relay came the natural reporting of the successes of the more obvious contributors and colorful personalities. Tim remained quietly in the background once the progress from con­ cept to results began. He attended the affair, passed on his personal best wishes and congratulations to runners, timers, officials and all manner of husbands, boyfriends, fathers, and celebrities. It was strictly a one-way street, however, as none were aware that the original idea came from the fertile promotionoriented mind of Tim and his back issues of Runner’s World magazine. Many people had read of the Manahawkin, New Jersey, high school team exploit of 100 women running a mile apiece relay style, but it took Tim to act and plant the seed in the DSE psyche. His running exploits took him to Marysville in 1976 to face fifty miles of boring country road to the outskirts of Sacramento. We matched up for the first twenty miles, which consisted of a dogged pace interrupted by our individual ver­ sions of life stories, anecdotes, and stuffing our bodies with a variety of fluids.. At each rest stop, Tim's handler would take out a bathroom scale, upon which he would stand and once again be a scientist, recording for some yet unwritten paper, the weight progress of a fifty miler. There's no meta­ phor to illustrate Dr. Forrest Owen Smith standing in the mid­ dle of Hiway 99 on a bathroom scale looking over the vast un­ ending fields of the Sacramento Valley. As a result of his running and weighing, Tim Smith became West Valley TC's 1976 50-mile champion with 10 hours, 2 minutes, and 40 seconds of effort. Another one of those Tim Smitheroos is the 1977 PA-AAU's 30-kilo title race, which was plagued with sufficient police bureaucratic interference that some members of the event ceased in their efforts to reach the finish line. In fact, all of them except Tim who, no doubt, was mindful of the AAU's rule #65, admonishing, "all competitors must run the full dis­ tance of the race." Consequently, Tim put the rule to the test and went on solo to finish, thus becoming the official PA-AAU 30-kilo champion for 1977. Whether AAU officialdom eventually acknowledges the victory awaits the publication of the race results. But to those who vicariously would like to strike a blow for personal tenacity, Tim Smith becomes a new kind of Saturday hero. Tim grew up in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, the son of an iron worker and school teacher, his father and mother respec­ tively. After high school, he tried the iron worker trade for awhile, but his adventurous spirit was fanned by his grandfather, James Thomas, who did what he wanted when he wanted. After years of independence and two years as an Army draftee at Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, D.C., Tim came to California for a pre-med program at San Francisco State. His employment during this student period included being a barkeep, piano player, and bouncer at "Jacques", an Ellis Street bar of the early gay scene in San Francisco. Tim, de­ finitely not of that discipline, none-the-less became captured by San Franciscana and returned to the City following his me­ dical training and internship at Duke University. He is probably the only doctor-runner-wri ter who is also a licensed Federal Firearm Dealer and one of the few who are authorized to deal in machine guns. If that wasn't enough distinction, he also is a herpetologist, a word returning me to the dictionary to make sure that he was interested in snakes and not fever blisters. But whether it's Tim Smith the runner, Smitty the barkeep, Big Tim the iron worker, or Forrest Owen Smith, M.D., he's in life's mainstream with vigor and involvement. But to me, Tim Smith is the way I think my own family doctor should be.

NOR-CAL PORTRAIT (Ed. - W e ’re still looking for a volunteer to take over the job of "NorCal Portrait" editor. It involves only a feu hours per issue of work. You should have a fair knowledge of track and field and be a fairly good writer too, although the latter is probably not quite as important. We need someone quick, so if y o u ’re at all interested, please contact the editor...I certain­ ly d o n ’t need any more work.) MEET JAMES LOFTON: (By Conrad Walker) - James David Lofton lists his occupation as 'student-athlete'. The student part is pret­ ty well taken care of on the campus of Stanford University, where Lofton will be a senior this fall. The athlete part takes a deeper breath to talk about. In the 21 years since James was born at Fort Ord, Calif., he has done it all in track and field: run the sprints, high jumped, triple jumped, and long jumped. It is this last event which has brought him the most fame, however. A consistent improver, Lofton really broke through this year, when he took advantage of Mexico City's thin air during a track team trip south of the border to jump 26-9, a personal best by over a foot from his best mark of last year. He con­ tinued in his stride toward the world class by jumping over 26feet a number of times (we won't know the exact number until James stops competing in Europe this summer), and by winning the Pac-8 long jump from Larry Doubley with a 26-4 3/4 legal jump. In the tough NCAA competition, Lofton finished a creditable fourth, with a 26-53*w jump, confirming that he can make his pre­ sence felt in any competition. Oddly, for his expertise in the long jump, it is not his favorite event. The 6-3/190-pounder likes the triple jump best. "It requires so many skills and so much training; done right it is a beautiful event. Also, I like the 400, because it is so mentally demanding to erase the fear and pain and sprint the whole way; impossible?" Lofton has done a good erasure job. Along with his 46.4m best, he has a 45.1 relay leg, and many experts feel that if he concentrated on the long dash, he could make significant improve­ ment. James, however, takes a more philosophical approach to his events and to sport. "I don't set goals for myself," is his surprising assertion. "I look more toward physical and mental improvement through sports. There are marks I would like to ob­ tain, but I do not consider them as goals; such as: 45.0m and over 27-6." He continues, "Too often marks are dictated By con­ ditions. I enjoy competing and coming away feeling that my men­ tal frame of mind has not held me back from what my physical prowess enables me to accomplish." Since he's involved in football in the fall, his training schedule varies. "My track training begins in late November, through to mid-January. In this period I am only concerned with getting into good condition with an early season program con­ sisting of over-distance running, lots of interval workouts, and hills, with an emphasis on strength and running form. Also, in this first training stage, I begin my weight training, which is primarily a program to increase overall strength with an em­ phasis in keeping flexibility." "In mid-January I begin my indoor season, consisting of a few indoor meets. Also during this time, I am consistently building my base for running the quarter during the outdoor

season, adding in sprint work to keep competitive during the indoor meets. The last week in February we begin our outdoor season, and throughout the rest of the season I follow the basic routine of: Mon.(breakdown 600-500-300-200 or something similar); Tue.(long jump work and 150's or 200's); Wed.(Iona sprinting--3x330 0 33-35 secs, or 3x220 under 22 sec., etc.); Thur.(lonq jump & relay work); Fri.(rest); Sat.(compete); Sun.(rest)." In order to compete well in the big meets in May and June, James makes April the hardest work month, with distance runs three times per week in the morning and heavy weight training but with Thursday's workout relaxed. "In mid-April I drop the weight training and don't resume again until after the season is over, when I also begin over-conditioning with runs of 5 to 7 kilometers." "As far as obtaining long-lasting success in track and field--there is no other activity that I enjoy as much, but without the ability to make track my livelihood, sooner or la­ ter, I must bid it farewell to football." Football? Oh yes, Lofton is good enough at his 'other' sport, played in the fall in front of one or two misguided fans, that he may be able to make the hard shift from college wide receiver to pro star. Certainly it is an option that James is aware of, and one which enters into his training plans for track, as noted above. Progression Year

WEST VALLEY PORTRAIT MEET ROD BERRY: (By Bill Clark) - For this issue's featured athlete, we again turn to the talented junior segment of the club. Rod Berry's share of talent is indeed bountiful as evi­ denced by his PR's of 4:12.2, 8:53.4, 14:00.0, and 29:13, as well as his numerous cross-country and track victories, with perhaps the highlight being a second-place finish in the CIF State Meet 2-mile this year. And he's still got one more year at Redwood High School in Larkspur! Talent is obviously an important factor in a young ath­ lete's success, but at least as important is the establishment of a reasonable training program which will foster future im­ provement. Coaches Doug "Flash" Basham in cross-country and Don Zile and Morrie Shepherd in track have developed a sound program for Rod and his Redwood teammates, combining fartlek, hill training, and track workouts. Mileage is kept to reason­ able levels...Rod's rarely exceeds 70 miles per week during the school year. This allows him adequate time to recover from the fairly high quality workouts. Rod and his coaches obviously feel that there will be plenty of time in college and later to experiment with high volume training. Many of the high volume high schoolers have found it difficult to maintain their high school mileage in college, let along im­ prove upon it, even though their strength and stamina are greater due to maturity. Rod provided us with a detailed description of his yearly training cycle: Summer-"During the first of summer, I take it easy to recover from the long track season. Towards the end of July, I start my 'wild-man' workouts. They are usually done with one or two other people (Hal Schulz). I run for 8-10 miles of constant fartlek. All summer workouts are run at 3-5 o'clock. Afternoon workouts are also preceded by 3-4 miles as a morning workout. Fall-During fall I cut my mileage way back from 90 to 60 miles per week. Towards the peak part of the season I start one-mile and 2-minute intervals on dirt roads. During cross-country I never get near a track for training, because I know I'll see enough of it during track season. Winter-For the first two weeks after x-country, I just rest, with up to 20 miles per week. Then I start my building again by starting with long slow distance, and then increasing the intensity as track approaches. All during summer, fall and winter I run a lot of hills...it's kind of a Redwood tradition. I started speedwork about mid-January, but only once a week.

Sprinq-I cut my mileage per week from njy winter rate of about 70 to 60. I do speedwork twice a week...one is an easy, basic­ ally speed-oriented workout; the other is usually more endur­ ance-oriented and tends to hurt quite a bit (e.g. - 24 laps non-stop at alternating fast-slow pace: fast laps are 70, cut­ ting down to 65, with an 88 second lap between each)." Rod likes to race twice each week during cross-country and track, with three 'peak' races in cross-country and five in track. He also likes to run one indoor race each year. Rod's favorite distance is the 3-mile because he feels that he has more endurance than speed, and the shorter races seem like sprints. One could argue then that Rod is a fair sprinter based on his mile and 2-mile PR's. His racing strategy is geared to the perceived leg speed of his competitors. In fast company, he will try to break away in the early stages of the race with sustained pickups, sometimes over several laps. Rod is more social in his training runs, as he is often joined by runners from his school and others. Most of the sum­ mer and winter runs are low-keyed and enjoyable, however, once or twice each week he prefers to train along because he is, as he puts it, "tougher on himself". Rod's future competitors will no doubt pay the price for this mental toughness. As for the future, Rod's immediate goal is to make the Jr. International X-C Team next year, as well as win the State Meet 2-mile. If Rod's rate of improvement continues as it has, these goals should certainly be reachable.

WHEN/WHEN NOT TO GO TO THE FOOT DOCTOR: - I am delighted to re­ port that all the 'running' Podiatrists and most members of the American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine who are sincerely interested in helping injured athletes are very busy with ra­ pidly increasing numbers of patients. Through the work of Run­ ner's World Magazine's Medical Editor, Dr. George Sheehan, and many involved Podiatrists, most runners are now aware of the types of foot and leg problems that can be helped by podiatric care. The athlete is too often faced with a dilemma on where and when to turn for medical care. In previous articles I have answered runners' questions and given descriptions on how to diagnose and treat your own problems, and suggested when to go to the doctor. There is a need within traditional medicine and a trend among progressive practitioners to understand "good health". These practitioners are seeking an understanding of wellness rather than the treat­ ment of disease states. Runners are good examples of the healthy (elite) people who are concerned with the maintenance of good health. They want to understand the best ways to de­ velop strength, endurance, and flexibility, and to increase personal performance. Therefore, those doctors involved in their treatment are asked to be counselors and coaches on exer­ cise physiology, nutrition, psychology, and psychiatry(!). Most forms of traditional medicine treat a person until he's free of discernible disease, but they do not concern themselves with wellness (fitness). When an athlete is looking for a doctor, he must find one who is anxious to give advice on the achievement and maintenance of good health, rather than the treatment of disease. Tradi­ tional medicine dictates that if something hurts: (1) Stop doing it, (2) take medications, and (3) consider reconstructive sur­ gery. The application of podiatric principles often allows the athlete to maintain fitness in the presence of a physical dis­ order. Podiatry includes the medical, mechanical, and surgical management and treatment of the human foot and ankle. In treat­ ing the foot, it is essential for a Podiatrist to understand the anatomical structures, the circulatory system, the nervous sytem, etc., as v.311 as the bio-mechanics of the foot and leg dur­ ing gait and in various sports. Likewise many knee, hip, and low back problems are related to improper foot strike and/or

Components of Well Medicine /The New Physician; June 1977/ abnormal foot structure. Movements and therefore compensations of the foot cause simultaneous movements of the entire lower extremity. It is sometimes difficult but always important to isolate those problems of the lower extremity which are primary in nature, secondary to foot imbalance, or a combination of the two. In review of the charts of athletes I have met, I find that about 30% have knee pains, and greater than 50% com­ plained of non-foot problems. In many cases it is important to refer directly to an orthopedist for treatment. In any problem above the foot where there has been a direct injury with bone or soft tissue damage, it is out of the scope of practice for a Podiatrist to treat. State laws vary, and the trend is for Podiatrists to be licensed as physicians of the lower extremity, but this is not presently the case in all states, so it is essential that the injured athlete go to his personal physician, orthopedist, or emergency care physician for treatment. Podiatrists are licensed and qualified to treat all types of foot and ankle problems, but for injuries above the foot, especially to growing bones in children, possible bone or joint injuries to the knee, hip, or low back area, or any injuries which cause swelling, clicking, locking, or 'giv­ ing way' in joints where they should be considered an internal joint derangement and out of the scope of the Podiatrist. You should not go to a Podiatrist if you have these symptoms. Our experience in private practice and at the Sports Me­ dicine Clinic show us that we can help the athlete with all types of foot and ankle disorders and injuries, the overuse syndromes, and the acquired muscle imbalances of the lower ex­ tremity. The term overuse implies 'under condition' and pro­ duces symptoms at the weakest link in the biomechanical chain of events. It is especially common in those types of sports which require repeated stresses, such as long distance running on hard surfaces. The overuse syndrome in the lower leg may show up as 'shin splits', tendonitis, muscle cramps, or stress fractures of bone. In the knee, overuse syndromes usually de­ velop around the sides of the knee joint or knee cap (patella) but not within the knee joint. "Runner's Knee" (Chondromala­ cia Patella) is a painful roughening of the back surface of the knee-cap, often associated with excessive side-to-side movement of the or pronation (flattening) of the foot, and therefore helped with biomechanical examination and functional orthotic control with custom foot supports. Our experience with treatment of problems around the knee-cap has been very gratifying. Problems above or below the knee-cap, often called "Jumper's Knee", do not respond as well, but sometimes they are helped by cushioned foot inserts, and physical thera­ py of the injured parts. Problems around the medial joint line of the knee are associated with excessive pronation of the foot, and those around the lateral joint line with impact shock, or lack of sufficient absorption of contact stresses; about 50% of these respond to foot support. Joint problems at the back of the knee do not respond to our treatment very well. Problems around the thigh, especially the muscles, respond well to our care, but problems around the hip and low back area have mixed, non-predictable results. Excessive pronation of the foot produces mobility in joints and is associated with in­ ternal rotation of the thigh, pain in front of the hip joint, and a forward tilt of the pelvis. Therefore, if sciatica or low back pain is associated with poor posture, it may be helped with functional foot control. Particular sports produce acquired muscle imbalances, so it is essential to maintain strength and flexibility in oppos­ ing muscle groups. No matter what form of treatment, some in­ juries take time to heal; in general, soft tissue injuries heal within three weeks; injuries to bones and joints from six to eight weeks. We can learn from Walt Stack, who puts faith in "MA and PA"...Mother Nature and Father Time.

SPECIAL ARTICLE AN ATHLETIC SERVICE CORPS TO SPUR PHYSICAL FITNESS: (By Jeffrey S. Darman) (Ed. - Jeff Darman is president of t h e Road Runners Club of America and a former assistant to the director of VIS­ TA. Re recently left his position as executive assistant-public affairs at the American Anthropological Association to become a freelance consultant.) America has its Peace Corps and Vista, its National Endow­ ment for the Arts and Humanities, Its Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Why not an Athletic Service Corps? A Service Corps, in my view, would solve the financial problems many American athletes face as they struggle for hon­ ors in national and international competition such as the Olympic s . Why not give these athletes two or three years of 'assist­ ed' living in return for their aid in developing a truly na­ tional physical-fitness program? I'm not talking about an ath­ letic slave system. The program I propose would leave athletes free to pursue their ambitions unfettered by ultranationalistic team obligations. For the most part, they would have the say when and where they wished to compete, within the parameters of finances, logistics, and their own desires— as long as they did the job they were being paid to do. A variety of Contributors: - What would that job be? Basically, it would require the athletes to share their expertise with the masses through the required service. Such service might be a local community, a state or an appropriate national group, and it could involve the whole range of major and minor sports. The athletes would receive modest remuneration from the Service Corps, a public corporation that could be funded by a combination of private, government and corporate donations. A board of governors, including active athletes and free from government control, would operate the Corps. Three kinds of programs: - This approach should alleviate the need for under-the-table payments, which all but the total­ ly naive realize exist. It should also satisfy the various ruling groups in international sports because America would be paying its athletes for legitimate service, but not solely with government funds. Superior athletes would get a chance, through financial assistance, to train and compete adequately while at their peak. And society would be repaid for the opportunities it provided. The service could be current or future, depending on which plan best suited the athlete. American citizens, of course, do not owe their athletes a living. By the same token, athletes aren't the property of the United States, and they do not owe it to their country to make the sacrifices many of them must make to compete at the inter­ national level. An Athletic Service Corps would be a balanced approach to the problem. It would be an honest approach...far more honest than the kind of subsidization that takes place in many other countries. The Athletic Service Corps could offer three types of programs: (1) Fellowships for participation in athletic projects funded by the Corps, such as clinics, community-center develop­ ment programs or supplementary coaching. Athletes would work perhaps only four hours a day, with the rest of the work day available for their training. (2) Full-time "training grants" for athletes in sports where even flexible work schedules would impair their programs. In return for the grants, or loans, the athletes would agree to serve one year in Service Corps projects for each six months of subsidization. (3) Special grants to athletes who have physiology or med­ ical degrees and who wish to pursue research into sports medi­ cine. A fund would be set up for worthy projects of this nature. The athletes would be paid adequately for housing, living expenses, and a life style free from the anxiety that many of them face now. Their mission would be that of community worker or resource person, rather than subsidized athlete or coach. The working athletes would benefit, and so would the community. The mechanics of this program as outlined here are rudi­ mentary at best. They are intended merely to set the framework for discussion. The key point is this: Our country is basically composed of physically unfit people, and at the same time we have a commodity of untapped and unchannelled athletic resour­ ces. Why not utilize these human resources to improve America's fitness, while aiding the athletes when they need our help the most? All individuals, regardless of age, sex, or inate ability, would be reached by the physical-fitness development program. Athletic potential could be discovered in the process and super­ ior talent developed.

AAU 20-KILO TITLE GOES TO WVTC (June 5, Seattle, WA): West Valley TC annexed its second National race-walking title for 1977 by putting three scorers in the top ten places at the prestigious 20-Kilo Championships, thus adding to the 35-Kilo title they won two months earlier.

Prep Ramblings by Keith Conning Please send interesting information on high school track, cross­ country, etc., directly to Keith, along with additions & correc­ tions to our "NorCal Prep Bests" on the following pages...2235 Browning St., Berkeley, CA 94702 (Ph. 415/849-4406). The time has come for a change in the way athletes advance to the State Meet! Athletes should advance according to best times and distances. That way, 8-lane tracks such as Cal's new tartan surface could be used, as the 24 best athletes in the state would attend. The present system discriminates against athletes living in the southern part of the state and also ad­ versely affects some northern athletes. Nearly 60% of Califor­ nians live in the south, but they only get ll of the 27 avail­ able spots in the State Meet. Karen Stampfli (Lassen Susanville) threw 43-1 in the Northern Section meet to take second, but only one girl advances from that section to the State Meet. Yet her section mark was the fourth best section mark in the en­ tire state. Fortunately, Karen won the discus competition and so she got a chance to compete at UCLA anyway. Not so fortunate was Leslie Deniz (Gridley Union) who threw the discus 136-4 to place second in the Northern Section. She missed out on the trip to Los Angeles, even though hers was the third best sec­ tion mark in the state. To illustrate how unfair the present system is, let's see who did compete. Renee Davis (Skyline, Oakland) advanced to the State Meet with a throw of 33-3^ in the shot, almost ten feet less than Stampfli's! Glenda Thomas (Westchester, Los An­ geles) advanced in the discus with 88-1, 48-3 less than Deniz! Only marks set in competitions with five or more teams would be considered, so that phony dual meet times would not count. A windreading would be required for all sprinting and jumping marks to be eligible for State consideration. I would like to see a continuation of the league, sub­ section, and section competitions throughout the state, but on­ ly the best athletes would advance to the State Meet. Let me know what you think of the idea. Downey senior, Tim Holmes, ran his fastest time ever in Evanston, Illinois, to finish third in the Sixth Annual Inter­ national Prep Invitational two-mile race at Northwestern Univer­ sity. Holmes was timed at 8:55.3, making it his first time un­ der 9 minutes. It was seven seconds better than his previous best, and some 10 seconds better than his seasonal best. Holmes had splits of: 67, 67, 67, 68, 68, 68, 67, 63.3. Karen Nachbar (San Juan, Citrus Heights), competing for

Club North, was the AAU Women's 10,000 top prep finisher, placing ninth in a personal best of 36:01. Karen was fourth in the State Meet two-mile. Chris Dailey (Kennedy, Sac'to), who placed fourth in the State 100 yard dash, said: "I'll be running for Sacramento Ci­ ty College next season. That's where all the speed is going to be next year." Ann Regan (Camden, San Jose), who set a national record in the State 880, placed third in the 800 meters at the Na­ tional AAU Women's Jr. Meet with a very fast 2:06.4, however, Linda Goen (North Bakersfield) avenged her State Meet defeat with a 2:05.4 meet record. Ann lowered her PR to 2:04.37m at the US-Soviet Jr. Meet, while placing second to the Russian winner by a half-second. And Ann is only a soph!! Leslie Deniz (Gridley Union), representing the Peach Bowl Pacers, placed ninth in the discus at the AAU Jr. Meet with a fine toss of 136-5. Leslie would have placed second in the State Meet with that throw, if she had been allowed to compete. It was also farther than the old State Meet Record of 134-5 by Kathy Middleton (Poway) at the 1976 meet in Berkeley. Imagine running 4:11.8 and not being able to compete in the State Meet mile final! That was the fate this year of Mike O'Reilly (San Rafael). However, Mike is a junior and will give it a no again next season. Rod Berry (Redwood, Larkspur), second in the State twomile, said: "I've been waiting for a race like this where I could get some good competition all year. I got caught up in the pack a little more than I wanted to, and I didn't get to the front until about the last 220 yards. If I was going to beat him (soph Frank Assumma of Eisenhower, Rialto), I had to do it on endurance. I would have like to win it, but there was nothing much I could have done." Berry's splits: 66.2, 66.3, 67.2, 67.5 (4:27.2), 67.5, 68.7, 67.8, 62.2 (8:53.4). Sarah Sweeny (Marin Catholic, Kentfield), fourth in the State mile with ner first sub-five minute performance, was glad she had third-place Cheryl Flowers (Valhalla, San Diego) to keep her pushing throughout. Sweeny said: "I was just try­ ing to catch that girl. I was behind her the whole way saying to niyself, 'Go on.'" Reuben Edwards (Terra Linda, San Rafael) bowed out of the high jump at 6-11. He had cleared 6-10 on his final attempt at that height. Lena Dilworth (Vallejo), sixth in the State 100, is tiny as sprinters go-, at 5-2 she still manages to be among the best in the state. The senior, who has been running the sprints since she was a 10-year-old member of the Vallejo Police Ac­ tivities squad, recently set school and Sac-Joaquin Section records in both the dashes. Her 11.2 and 25.2 marks quali­ fied her for the State Meet. Lena has a career best of 10.9. At the Golden West Invitational, Jim Burrell (Piner, San­ ta Rosa) finished second in the 100 yard dash in 9.7, just a tenth behind the winner, Jesse Williams of Virginia. Williams doubled by winning the 220 in 21.6 while Burrell finished seventh with a 21.9. Tired, but game, Burrell participated in an exhibition 880 relay just ten minutes after running the 220 and ran a split of 22.3 for the second-place North Coast Sec­ tion team. The Oakland Section won the relay in 1:28.9, only a tenth of a second ahead of the NCS all-stars. Success for Westmoor's half-miler Jeff Maxwell did not mean placing in the top five of the State's 880. Maxwell ful­ filled his primary goal (despite finishing seventh) of break­ ing his school's record for the half-mile, a 1:53.2 by Dave Dunbar, which was set in the 1959 State Meet! Maxwell was clocked in 1:52.9. Stan Ross (Serra, San Mateo), sixth in the State mile, said: "Two days in a row--whew--that's rough on your body. I knew Friday night that I wouldn't have enough left to make a strong showing. I tried to get it going on the third lap, but my legs felt like they were tied in bow knots. Most of these guys are just stronger physically than I am. Strength is what I am going to have to develop in college (San Jose State). I have the speed and stamina; I need more power. But what the heck--it's been a great season. Stillman ran a good race, and I'm glad to see that if I couldn't beat him that no­ body else could either." Lorens Lebherz (Serramonte, Daly City), fourth in the State triple jump, was displeased with a foul call that pre­ vented him from taking his final jump. Vernon Sallaz (San Leandro), fifth in the State 880, missed a week of workouts during Easter vacation when his right ankle was in a cast. Sallaz was utterly delighted with his performance on the UCLA tartan surface, laughing, "I was happy just to make the finals, and since this was my last race I was going all out. An underdog like me has nothing to lose."

The San Leandro senior, who ran 1:59.0 last year, carried a sea­ sonal best of 1:54.3 into the State competition and then ran a 1:52.6 in the finals. After qualifying for the finals in the 440 relay, Dublin sprinter Chuck Ganqnuss joked, "We're the last of the great white hopes Frustrating and scorching 85-degree heat drained HumboldtDel Norte League athletes Michelle Betham and Glen Borland as they failed to place among the top five at the State Meet. "It's pretty outstanding for her to have been here (the State) for three years," Del Norte coach Brian Ferguson said of Betham. "She is disappointed she didn't throw further. Borland's dis­ appointed he didn't run a little better, but this year the com­ petition in the distances was a lot keener than it was last year. An 8:57.3 won the two-mile last year, and this year 8:57.7 was the fifth best time. Last year a 4:14 won the mile and that wouldn't have even placed in the top seven this year." Kevin Messenger (Highlands), second in the State shot put, stands 6-2 and weighs 240 and is going to Oregon State. Oakland senior Kurt Durham brought back two hunks of pre­ cious metal from the State Meet in the form of plaques won in the long jump competition, where he notched a 25-0 3/4 to win, and in the triple jump, where he placed fifth with a 48-7. Dur­ ham proved the 25-1 leap in the Oakland City meet was no windaided fluke. "That's all I wanted to prove, really--that I'm an authentic 25-foot jumper. That was my main reason for going down there." When not contemplating college offers (Cal and USC), Kurt can be found playing basketball. Susie Boehner (Clayton Valley, Concord), fifth in the State high jump, said: "I've never done this before. It's just unbelieveable." For Boehner, it was her third appearance in the prestigious meet. She leaped a personal best of 18-6 in the long jump in Friday's trials, but failed to make the cut for the finals. She has watched with a keen eye the increased interest in girls track over the years. "It's come a long way, baby I" Linda Goen (North Bakersfield), runnerup in the State 880 and winner of the mile, said: "She (Ann Regan) pushed me. She told me, 'Watch it!' It kinda shocked me. Afterwards she apo­ logized and I didn't think about it (filing a protest)." Sacramento's Debra Thorntona won the State shot put title on her last try. San Pedro's Kendis Warren was leading with a throw of 43-5 when Thorntona stepped in for her final throw. "I'm not going to think about it," she told herself. "I was just ready to settle for second place." She didn't have to. Thorntona hadn't thrown the shot since the ninth grade before this season. Earlier this year, she was state leader. "I real­ ly didn't think about competing in track again until I saw some Cordova girls running around with a lot of medals," Thorntona confided. "Then I said to myself, I'm going to get me-some too." Lynbrook's Kris Costello and Independence's Roxanne Bier, like Ann Regan, members of the San Jose Cindergals, were among the record-setters at the State Meet. Costello, a junior, ran 13.97 over the hurdles after a poor start, while Bier, a frosh, cruised through the two-mile in 10:39.7. Costello has not prac­ ticed the low hurdles all year under instructions from Coach Jim Tisano. "When other girls are hurdling," he explained, "she's just sprinting. It seems like she doesn't even see the hurdles." Since her future appears to be in the highs, Tisano figures it's a waste of time for her to work out over the lows. Bier seemed rather calm about her triumph. "I would have been satisfied with around 10:30," said the 4-11, 86-pounder, who was almost invisible in the 26-girl start. "I knew somehow I would get around the people at the beginning." She did, and kept right on going. The State Meet mile proved to be as exciting as expected with three runners under 4:08.8 and another three under 4:11.0. It was Mark Stillman of Willow Glen (headed for Stanford Univ.) who walked away the winner with a 4:06.9. Stillman, who ran third and fourth for most of the race, grabbed the lead in the final 110 yards. His time was just 1.5 seconds off the meet re­ cord set by Mark Schilling of Garden Grove in 1972. William Stapleton {Lincoln, S.F.) was the only City athlete to place in the finals when he finished fourth in the 330 low hurdles with a 37.20 clocking. All high schools in the Los Angeles City School District have been suspended from sports competition next year by the CIF for permitting girls on boys' teams. Andre Phillips (Silver Creek, San Jose) won the 330 lows in 36.43 without having had a real workout the last two weeks. "I injured my ankle before our section meet, and I have not been able to workout, so I was worried about my conditioning," re­ lated the Silver Creek Streak. Bill Hice (Oakland) kept his cool in the high jump and flopped to a 7-0 height for second place. "I had to get some

bandages for my knee after going 6-6," revealed H1ce, who is headed for Cal. "My shin splints were acting up. Considering everything, I think I did well." The most disappointed runner of the meet might have been Richmond's Mike White, who was under the weather in what might have been his day in the sun. The Richmond junior finished a distant third in his best race, the 880, and then couldn't hold down his lunch. "There goes my hamburger," he quipped, but it really wasn't a laughing matter. "I just couldn't sleep last night and finally dozed off at about five in the morning." White lost the race early, lagging far behind the blitzing pace set by Dave Kings land of El Modena, who toured the first lap in a swift 52-flat. White came back an hour la­ ter and ran a credible 48.35 in the 440 for fifth place. Anna Gabriel (Ells, Richmond) fell over the eighth hurdle in the i^irst heat of the 110 lows hurdles. It was a shame, as she had the fastest qualifying time from the sections. She will be among the athletes who should challenge some records of the Cal women's track team next year. For getting mileage out of its athletes, Kennedy (Rich­ mond) was commendable. The Eagles prepared for the mile re­ lay with a 42.45 in the 440 relay, though not scoring. And then the foursome of Reggie Brown, Jamie Richard, Ken Russell, and Paul Stewart ran 3:15.4, breaking the school record for the second time in two days while finishing fourth. Three of the team are juniors, including Stewart, who ran the anchor leg in 46.9! Berkeley hurdler-high jumper Candy Ross had a disappoint­ ing end to her prep career. Arriving at Drake Stadium only a half-hour before her event began, she never did get her steps and nearly was out of the competition early. She stayed in with clearings of 5-6 and 5-7 on her final attempts. Please send me clippings on prep track and cross-country from your area, as it is interesting to read about athletes from other parts of Northern California. I would like to thank the following people for sending me information: Wayne Moss of Weaoerville, Chuck Sheley of Chico, Bruce Grant of Tamalpais High, Bill Mensing of Downey High (Modesto), Plato Yanicks of Menlo-Atherton High, and Don Kirk of Los Altos.

RON WAYNE TROUNCES GOOD FIELD AT GOLDEN GATE PARK 8-MILER (April 10, San Francisco): - Known more for his marathon exploits, Nike TC's Ron Wayne showed he was very competitive over a shorter distance too, as he warmed up for his fourth place Boston Marathon fi­ nish (next week) with a solid 40:08 victory over Gerry Garcia & Jim Nuccio, who tied for second. Although he missed Nuccio's and Wayne Badgley's 39:50 course standard (1975), he helped pull along a fast field, with the first four places being the next fastest times (besides the record) ever on this course. Kent Guthrie wiped out another masters record with a superb 43:39 (Ross Smith's 1973 time of 44:37 was theold one), exactly a minute ahead of teammateRalph Bowles, the next over-forty finisher. Amazing Ann Thrupp of Stanford demolished the women's fieldwith a very fast 48:14 standard, almost two minutes below Sharon Furtado's 50:03 of 1976, and three minutes ahead of Judy Leydig (51:12). Ruth Anderson (55:08) was top masters woman...430 finished. /Leydig/ 1-Ronald Wayne/NTC 2-Gerry Garcia/Army-WVTC 3-Jim Nuccio/WVTC 4-Bill Seaver/WVTC 5-Jan Sershen/ETC 6-Mike Niemiec/WVTC 7-John Sheehan/WVTC 8-Steve Dean/Un 9-Bill Spence/WVTC 10-Jack Leydig/WVTC 11-Roland Watson/WVTC 12-Tad Woliczko/PMK 13-Ernie Rivas/PMK 14-Mike Plummer/Chab-WVTC 15-Bob Darling/ETC 16-John Aguilar/SJD 17-Tom Burns/Un 18-Daryl Zapata/WVTC 19-Kent Guthrie/WVJS 20-Paul Thompson/Un 21-Tim Donovan/SBAA 22-Boyd Tarin/WVTC 23-Ralph Bowles/WVJS 24-Joe Day/Shrevpt TC

PINOCCI AND SERSHEN IN EASY SPRING RIDGE VICTORIES (Apr. 17, Milpitas): /6.07 and 10.76 Mi./ - Mike Pinocci and Jan Sershen repeated as victors in the Cuper­ tino Yearlings' Spring Ridge Run, both winning by over 10-seconds per mile, but neither approached their 1976 course marks of 31:57 and 62:48. Kent Guth­ rie meanwhile seemed intent on obliterating every masters record on the book this year by dumping Jim Simpson's 37:09 standard with a super 35:15, good enough for sixth overall. Karen Nachbar did likewise to Ann Trason's 41:29 with her 39:13. Other records were hard to come by, as only Kerry Brogan's 88:41 (14-17 girls) and Louis Stojanovich's 97:15 (9/under boys) were faster than previous times, both coming on the long course. Ralph Bowles got within 17 seconds ofUlrichKaempf's 70:48 to cop themasters title in the 10-miler. Actually, Vicky Bray holds the fastest female time for the 6-miler at39:00 (set in 1976), but Karen's39:13 did set a new 'women's' division standard. This race's popularity seems to be growing, even with it's steep hill (on the longer run). A total of 109 finished the short run, while 49 ran 10 miles. /Landrum/ 1-Mike Pinocci/WVTC 2-Steve Brooks/Stan.St. 3-Bruce Rider/WVJS 4-Roland Watson/WVTC 5-Tad Woliczko/PMK 6-Kent Guthrie/WVJS 7-Bob Myers/PMK 8-Jerome Lewis/NCS

RIVAS AND TAYLOR GRAB 'AVENUE' VICTORIES (May 1, Weott): - After being down by 1:45 at twenty miles (to Michael Merrell's 1:47:20), Ernie Rivas worked his way up from fourth to pull off another vic­ tory at this every-growing marathon (over 1000 entries this year...still awaiting full results at this time, July 17). His 2:23:35 was only a few seconds off his 1976 winning time of 2:23:17, but his margin of victory was a bit bigger this time (13 seconds, vs. 9 last year!), besting Ed Strabel of Colorado in the process. Third-placer, Daryl Zapata, set a big PR of 2:24:18 while moving up from fifth at 20 miles. Third NorCal finisher was Bob Cooper, whose 2:26:11 was also a personal best. Marilyn Taylor lowered her best time also in winning the women's division at 3:01:15, about a half-mile ahead of Sue Krenn of San Diego, who clocked 3:04:58. Ruth Anderson didn't match her best time, but a 3:09:44 for a 47-year-old woman is super in anyone's books. In between Krenn and Anderson was newcomer Karen Rosenblatt (3:05:18) of Davis. The masters competition was fierce, al­ though the finishers weren't all that close. Three broke 2:40, led by Canada's Stewart Fall, who did 2:33:54, besting LaJolla's Dave Worthen, who notched a quick 2:36:11. Amazing 54-year-old Ed Almeida started out swiftly (57:35 at 10 miles), faltered to 1:59:25 at 20 miles, but held on to notch a great 2:39:02 for 34th overall. Ray Menzie was top NorCal master with a 2:41:28, indicat­ ing he is well on his way to a full comeback after his disabling bike accident last summer. Depth was noticeably present in this year's run, with 205 under three hours. /Dick Meyer/ 1-Ernie Rivas/PMK 2-Ed Strabel/Colorado 3-Daryl Zapata/WVTC 4-Alan Kerr/B.C. 5-Robert Cooper/WDS 6-Tom Lee/Pasadena 7-Michael Merrell/Ore 8-Ron Nabers/Colorado 9-Pat Buzbee/Turlock 10-Mark Proteau/AGRC 11-Chris Cole/HSU 12-Kevin Heaton/SD 13-Keith Forman/Wash 14-Joe Burgasser/CCAC 15-Brian Bonner/LVRC 16-Jack Case/Portervle 17-Keith Crowder 18-Mike Buzbee/Y.C. 19-Stewart Fall/B.C. 20-Geoff Pietsch/Miami 21-David Worthen/L.J. 22-David Fuller/S.F. 23-Bob Coleman/Berk 24-Greg Jewett/PMK

MAXWELL EDGES SEAVER AT ANGEL ISLAND; GUTHRIE AND GUMBS-LEYDIG SET RECORDS (May 7, Angel Island): Cal's distance coach, Brian Maxwell, just a few weeks off a third-place Boston Marathon finish, had his hands (feet?) full on this one with Bill Seaver making a determined bid to close a one-second gap. Brian's 23:43 clocking was way off Ron Wayne's 1976 course mark of 23:07 for the 4.78-mile loop of the island. It was basically a two-man race, as Eng­ lishman Pete Hamilton was a distant 24:32 in third. Kent Guthrie had his work cut out for him in set­ ting a new masters record, as his 25:36 was only 8 seconds under Jim Shettler's 1975 time. However, he left his nearest competition, Mike Healy (27:12), more than a quarter-mile back to fight it out with (Above) Start of the Angel Island Run, with Bill Jensen, who did 27:14. Judy Gumbs-Leydig almore than 1300 finishers! /Sharon Gowen/ so bested the course mark (for women), with a good (Right) Brian Maxwell winning the same race, 29:13, twelve seconds better than Diane Williams' just a secondin front of Bill Seaver./Perry/ 1974 winning pace. Judy likewise had little com­ petition, as teammate Kathy Himmelberger was runnerup in 30:00+. For some unknown reason, the race results have only about ten percent (or less) of the times listed, so wedon't know her exact time. Seems like a little better job could have been done!! You'll have to interpolate to get as close as you can to your actual time (it gets worse further down the line). /The Guardsmen/ 1-Brian Maxwell/NTC 2-Bill Seaver/WVTC 3-Pete Hamilton/ETC 4-Bob Bunnell/TAM 5-C.

GEIS & LEYDIG ARE BAY-TO-BREAKERS VICTORS (May 15, San Francisco): / 7 .63 Mi./ - Anticipating the crowd's false start, many of the top runners got fairly decent starts this year...actually, most were caught unawares, warming up a block or so ahead of the crowd. When the mob broke about eight minutes prematurely, Paul Geis, Jim Nuccio, and a good number of others, took off to keep from being trampled by the 12,000+ warm bodies that composed, officially and otherwise, this year's Bay-to-Breakers 'happening'. Judy Leydig was the top official woman entry in 47:38, with teammate Kathy Himmelberger an even minute back in a near rerun of the previous week's battle. Darryl Beardall, running his best race here in some time, grabbed 39th spot for the top masters' position (41:20). Geis' 37:03 was a new course record, but doesn't mean much since no one knows how far he ran. (See top of next page for more...) -36-

West Valley defended its team title by placing five runners in the top 25 places. Below are listed some of the top finishers, al­ though there are many discrepancies in times (including my own). So, for what they're worth, here they are, reprinted from the S.F. Examiner, the sponsoring newspaper. Although it gets more and more discouraging to battle the crowd each year, it's still a lot of fun...as long as you don't take it too seriously!! 1-Paul Geis/Un 2-Jim Nuccio/WVTC 3-Jon Sutherland/C.Nrthr 4-Gary Tuttle/TS 5-Bill Moran/Un 6-Brian Maxwell/BodyAmmo 7-Darren George/AIA 8-Dave Smith/AIA 9-Pat Tyson/CNW 10-Bill Clark/WVTC 11-Jerry Garcia/Army-WVTC 12-Bill Seaver/WVTC 13-Steve Palladino/CWTC 14-Dennis Dierckman/TTC 15-Pete Sweeney/AGRC 16-Mike Niemiec/WVTC 17-Cliff Rees/Army 18-Pete Hamilton/England 19-Angelo Martinez/AGRC 20-John Moreno/CWTC 21-Paul Cook/AIA 22-Czerwony Capri/AGRC 23-Pete Flores/AGRC 24-Daryl Zapata/WVTC 25-Ken Scalmanini/SFPC 26-John Currie/Kajaks-BC 27-Jim Scorgie/Kajaks-BC 28-Dennis Tracy/WVTC 29-Mark Proteau/AGRC 30-Gary Goettelmann/WVTC 31-Dick Weeks/BB 32-Phil English/WSU 33-Bill Spence/WVTC 34-Bob Lange/CWTC 35-Paul Fletscher/LIAC

BROOKS WINS ARMED FORCES DAY 5-MILER (May 21, Sharpe Army Depot, Stockton): - Stanislaus State's Steve Brooks took a 15second margin of victory over come-backing Henry Perez of Sun­ dance TC, who has only raced a few times in the past year. Steve's 24:46 goes as a record for this first annual affair. The little-publicized race drew a good-sized field that saw 137 finishers. Roger Bryan came from San Jose to grab the masters prize from San Francisco's Don MacDonald, 27:49 to 28:16. Debbie Hickman of the sponsoring club clocked 32:17 in downing top masters runner, Ruth Anderson, who had 32:51. The Tax Reducers AC placed their five scorers in the top 18 places to take the team title, even though Sundance's fifth man was in 17th spot. I take that back, after prefiguring, I get a tie score, 54-54, with Sundance coming out the winner with a higher fifth-placer. But, by adding total team time, TRAC comes out on top by one second: 2:14:59 to 2:15:00!!! Now that's what I call a close battle. On a dual meet basis, Sundance comes out on top, 27-28. You decide who won! /Bruce Adams/

CLARK NIPS SEAVER IN EXCITING GOLDEN GATE CHARITY RACE (May 22, Ft. Baker to S.F.): /6 Miles?/ - In one Of the most exciting finishes this year, Bill Clark outkicked teammate Bill Seaver to win by less than a second over a somewhat lengthened course (long?) in 30:41. The proceeds benefited the B1g Brothers & B1g Sisters or­ ganizations, and from the 1000+ entrants, 1t was a su­ per success...except for the mess at the finishline, where runners came through so fast that quite a lot of backup occurred. In addition, a large number of unof­ ficial runners made things more difficult on the timers as many unregistered runners got their times recorded but then walked away without taking a finlsh-stick, thus throwing times out of order. Brian Maxwell was 1n the race with less than a few hundred yards to go, but he evidently misjudged the finish and dropped back, thinking he had a longer distance to go. Clark and Seaver got a quick jump on him that he couldn't close, and he finished some six seconds back. Kent Guthrie was his usual self in grabbing his umpteenth masters ti­ tle this year without a loss, recording a fine 32:49 in eighteenth. Ever-improving Ulrich Kaempf was slightly less than a minute back, defeating an off-form Jim O'Neil, 33:41 to 34:14, for the runnerup slot in that division. Judy Leydig got a terrible start and didn't get into first until the bridge, but won the women's division going away, 38:59 to 39:42 for runnerup Kathy Himmelberger. Pax Beale had his usual assortment of special divisions, based on 'Invitations' from the pre­ vious year's NCRR Point Total standings, thus giving some good runners a chance to prove the validity of the 'rankings'. The runners mentioned above were considered without consideration to these 'special divisions'. Following are only about the first half of the finishers due to lack of space. As promised (our donation to the race, so results wouldn't have to be mailed out), we will still list all finishers, but lack of space 1n this issue has forced us to wait until next time for the rest of them...sorry about that! - Note: We did not mark all masters runners with our customary '*' because they were not noted in the results. We did mark those that came to mind. Those who did not turn in their sticks/tags were omitted from the list below, along with obvious er­ rors in placings that your editor caught. Hope you can read the small print! /Pax B eale, C a rl Jensen/ 30 :41 1-Bill Clark/WVTC 2-Bill Seaver/WVTC 30::42 3-Brian Maxwell/BA 30 :47 4-Pete Hamilton/ETC 30::54 5-Steve Pall adino/CW31: :21 6-Jan Sershen/ETC 31::22 7-Mike Niemiec/WVTC 31::56 8-Steve Kelley/FPTC 32::01 32 :02 9-Bob Bunnell/TAM 10-Bob Lange/CW 32::03 ll-Jack Leydig/WVTC 32 :19 12-Tom Preston 32::23 13-Ron Elijah 32 :29 14-Doug McLean/WVTC 32 :29 15-Kim Schaurer/TAM 32 :37 16-Bill Spence/WVTC 32::42 32 :48 17-Bob Darling/ETC 18-Kent Guthrie/WVJS 32::49* 33 :03 19-Corona 20-Mike Plummer/WVTC 33::18 21-Ulrich Kaempf/TRAC33::47* 22-Joe Maher/TAM 34::00 34::05 23-Terry Hughes 34:: 10 24-Tom Coniglio 34::11 25-Michael Hagen 34: 13 26-Terry Casey/ETC

PRICE WINS NORCAL 10-MILER...NO CONTEST

(May 28, Redding):

Jim Price of Redding and S.W.E.A.T. led the field of 72 run­ ners from start to finish in establishing the course record for this first annual event in 55:32 (this race took the place of the Lake Redding Run (7.62 miles), which had been held for seven years previously). Temperatures were moderate (low 70's) for the area, much to the liking of the participants. Runnerup Mark Burch of Chico was a distant (59:19) second in the race. Bob Malain, just turned 50 this year, copped the masters overall title with 62:58 and eighth overall. Bill Flodberg, who came all the way from San Martin (near San Jose) to run, was next at 65:59. Merill Cray of the Chico Running Club was the unopposed winner in the women's division, clock­ ing a slowish 73:07, some four-and-a-half minutes ahead of Laurie Bagley of Redding. In a companion three-mile cross­ country race, Lee Ferrero of Weed started slowly but then went by everyone to finish in 15:32 (top five in that race were: 2-Tom Hayes 16:19, 3-Wayne Moss 16:33, 4-Steve Daniels 16:35, 5-Britt Brewer 16:41). A good group of 44 completed the short circuit. /Len Edholm/ P.S. - Phil Harder was 2nd master!! 1-Jim Price/SWEAT 2-Mark Burch/CRC 3-Rick Martinez/SWEAT 4-Greg Nelson/Un 5-Gary Alderman/PMK 6-Bob Felsch/Un 7-Tom Olson/SWEAT 8-Bob Malain/NCS 9-V.I.

NUCCIO, GUTHRIE & GUMBS-LEYDIG OUTCLASS COMPETITION (May 29, Jack L eyd ig Box 1551 San M a te o ,C A 9 4 4 0 1 San Jose): - The TRAC 10-Kilo proved to be an outstanding suc­ cess with 360 finishers as this year's race was lengthened to the metric distance from the previous 6-miles. Thus, records were set in every class, and some classy ones were established throughout them. Jim Nuccio's 30:10 was unpressed, as Mike Cham­ bliss of the Basin Blues (Southern Cal) came in a quarter-mile back. Likewise, Kent Guthrie's 32:52 was far ahead of runnerup Ben Sawyer's 35:27 in the masters category. Judy Gumbs-Leydig came within just a couple of seconds of her 10K PR by running a very quick 37:39, almost a full three minutes ahead of teammate Penny DeMoss, who was nursing a sore achilles tendon and decided to play it safe. Ruth Anderson's 42:09 was tops for women over forty. Another super performance came in the men's 35-39 divi­ sion, where come-backing Tom Laris hit 31:44 for fourth overall. Despite fairly warm weather, overall times seemed to be quite fast. The LDR Scheduling Meeting took place following the race (Handbooks available for 50<t from AAU Office...add 15<t for post­ age), with many new races popping up, and many familiar ones failing to appear. /Ray Sm ith/ 1-Jim Nuccio/WVTC 2-Michael Chambliss/BB 3-Mark Proteau/AGRC 4-Tom Laris/WVTC 5-Gary Goettelmann/WVTC 6-Steve Palladino/CWTC 7-Henry Lawson/SDS 8-Homer Latimer/Un 9-Gonzalo Aguilar/WVJS 10-Mike Plummer/WVTC 11-Kent Guthrie/WVJS 12-Bill Meinhardt/WVJS 13-Claus Pedersen/RodAC 14-Paul Swinney/Un 15-Joe Salazar/SJCC 16-Danny Grimes/MVHS 17-Ted Pawlak/Un 18-Javier Barragan/Un 19-Alan Honma/Un 20-Pat Shaughnessy/WVTC 21-Keith Kruse/Un 22-Jeff Nicklin/MVHS 23-James Howe/Un 24-Jim Balley/Un 25-Gary Singer/Un 26-Ray Russell/Un

BOYET AND REESE TAKE HONORS AT MT. MISERY 10-KILO (June 4, Placerville): - Paul Reese, a youthful 60, took advantage of a 15-minute handicap to grab handicap honors at this rugged cross-country run in the hills surrounding Placerville with an actual time of 43:07. Aggie RC's Dave Boyet was almost exactly nine minutes quicker (34:05) to grab fast-time honors, ahead of Carl Lagomarsino, who did 34:47. This year's turnout numbered over 100, making it probably the most successful race yet. Since the results were listed by handicap time within division, I didn't want to take the time to merge everything into actual finish positions, so be­ low are listed the 'actual' running times of top finishers in each division...simply add the 'handicap time' (listed in column headings) to the actual time to get elapsed time from the gun, which was fired at 10 am. For example, the handicap (in minutes) for the 50-59 men's division was 5 minutes...the actual time of 40:29 for winner Bob Malain converts to a 45:29 handicap-placing time (add 5 minutes). Handicaps are actually the 'minutes after 10 am' that any particular group started running. Understand? All entry fees were turned over to the American Heart Association. /Ernie Marinoni/ (Note: Course records not known.) ***OPEN*** (15 Min.) 1-Dave Boyet/AGRC 2-Carl Lagomarsino 3-Jim Bowles/WVTC 4-Adam Ferreira 5-Dean Woods 6-Ross Rowley/SUND 7-Randy Hansen 8-Mike McCallain 9-Ed Nicholson 10-Robert Felsch 11-Thomas Lambie 12-Jim Holben/WVTC 13-John Betschart 14-Tim Hicks

NOTE: - Noticed in looking at the results that Steve Dean & Art Baudendistel, normally top runners, finished way back in the pack (49th & 50th) in very slow (for them) times. Anyone know if they got lost on the course? Or were they just working out?

SEAVER AND FLORES WIN STATUTO RUNS (June 5, San Francisco): - This race was again plagued by lack of course guides, and as a result, most everyone cut the course about 2 blocks short (30 seconds?). The motorcycle escort was not acting as a guide but only to serve notice of approaching runners at the many intersections which the race crossed. The second time around (for the ones that went 8.59 miles) the error was corrected. As a result, the fast times can't go down as 'course records'. Bill Seaver's 21:00 bested Pete Hamilton's 21:23 in the shorter race, while Pete Flores made short work of Steve Palladino and Jan Sershen on the two-loop course...seems that Flores' margin of victory wasn't nearly the 40 seconds listed, so perhaps the times were called out wrong? Anyone know? Undefeated Kent Guthrie chose the 4-miler, while rival Darryl Beardall ran his usual 8-miler, with both winning the over-40 divisions respectively: 22:34 and 47:05. Both would probably have set course standards for that divi­ sion on the regular course. The women's competition was in the short race, as Terry Hagerty (25:34) and Judy Leydig (25:39) were far ahead of the other female entries. Peggy Lyman had the 8-miler to herself with a 57:46. NOTE: - The sponsors never bother to list first names and/or divisions on the results, so we can never tell for sure who the top masters and women were. Readers: please tell us your time (masters & women) if you placed in the top six & four, respectively, of either race, or if you know the top placers. We need this information to count the results for our LDR Point Totals. Most masters are not noted. /S.F.A.C./ 1-Bill Seaver/WVTC 2-Pete Hamilton/ETC 3-Mike Niemiec/WVTC 4-S.

LATIMER ROMPS TO WOODMINSTER VICTORY AS SEAVER & BEARDALL SET COURSE MARKS (June 12, Oakland): Using a 4-minute handicap to the best of Its advantage, 38-year-old Homer Latimer hauled in Har­ ry Cordellos in the final quarter-mile to capture the 12th annual running of the popular Wood­ minster Handicap (otherwise known as the masochist's delight) through the scenic but trying Oak­ land hills. His 48:48 was quick enough to take second in the 'fast time1 standings, as Homer seems to excel in the roller-coaster runs (he's the only person to ever win both the Dipsea and Double Dipsea). Bill Seaver's 48:27 (no headstart) got him as far as eighth, and he chopped five seconds from Ted Quintana's 1975 mark in so doing. Darryl Beardall, running for the first time as a 'master' on this course, obliterated the late Jim Shettler's 1973 masters record of 54:56 with a superlative 51:07, good enough for the fourth fastest scratch time. Ulrich Kaempf (54:33) was also under the old mark. Ruth Anderson (47) shows that age is no obstacle as she came within less than a minute of Joan Ullyot's 1975 time (63:19), besting all other women in the process. Irene Rudolf (65:32) was a distant runnerup. Following are listed the top finish­ ers by 'handicap' placing, although their 'actual' time is listed, along with the handicap, in minutes (in parentheses following the name/club). Subtract the handicap from the actual time (listed) to get the finish ('watch') time.../9.25 Miles; 389 finished/. /Chas. MacMahon/

SEAVER AND GUTHRIE SET RECORDS AT CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL CHARITY RUN (June 19, Castro Valley): - Bill Seaver and Kent Guthrie took 13 and 14 seconds respectively off the open and masters records at this second annual event that saw 226 finish. Bill's 37:39 broke his own mark, while Kent broke what was Jim Shettler's last race record before he died last year (we think). Cheri Williams, a top-ranked prep miler and two-miler (she went to the CIF State Meet this year), missed Sharon Furtado's course mark by only 18 seconds and looked easy doing it (see photo at right). DeLaSalle High School senior, Paul Burke, was runnerup to Seaver with a fine 37:54 (Paul is only 17). Any­ one know if Lynne Bachand is a girl? We've listed her as third woman finisher, but women weren't indicated on the finish sheet, other than by name. /Dennis Tracy/ 1-Bill Seaver/WVTC 2-Paul Burke/DLS 3-Steve Palladino/CWTC 4-Tom O'Neil/BC-JesuitHS 5-Homer Latimer/Un 6-Boyd Tarin/WVTC 7-Michael Duncan/WVTC 8-Kent Guthrie/WVJS 9-Jeff Cowling 10-Mike Plummer/WVTC 11-E.
