LONDON WINS AGAIN
THE CHINA MAIL, FRIDAY, JUNE
VICTORY FOR HUNGARIAN RUNNER

DEREK JOHNSON RUNS MILE IN 4:06.8 AT THE UAU CHAMPIONSHIPS
What a satisfying meeting there was at the White City, Manchester, last Saturday, and what a pity that there was only a crowd of about 1,300 to see it. The occasion was the Universities Athletic Union's Cham- pionships, and six meeting records were beaten, three in the men's events and three in the women's.
The sun shone; the 350 metres track seemed less aggravating than usual; the only invitation event was a complete success; und the Championships were of almost as good a standard as last year.
