Sports: Track Meet
"Track meet drake relays at Des Moines are highlighted by a series of thriller-diller track contests." 11 meet records are shattered with spectacular performances by Olympic sprint star Bobby Morrow, Wilt Chamberlain of basketball fame, and other sports stars. Crowd in college bleachers. Men's hurdles from start to finish. Winner Willie Stevens. 100-yard dash, Bobby Morrow wins. High jumpers include Don Stewart and Wilt Chamberlain, who jumps while wearing a plaid hat resembling golfer's cap. VO says Chamberlain tied the mark, won coin toss to win. Wilt poses, shakes hands with another athlete, possibly Stewart. Very close finish in the mile race; second-place man offers sportsmanlike handshake to winner, Hungarian Laszlo Tabori.
