BANNISTER AND CHATAWAY
MAY YET BE
EDGED
OUT HELSINKI
OF A TRIP TO
By "RECORDER"
Those two great Dark Blue milers, Roger Bannister and Chris Chataway, on whose Olympic chances a dozen English sports writera have written two dozen columnis, may yet be edged out of a place on the British Olympiè team for Helsinki.
The British Games at the White City over the Whitsun holidays have already produced two greater Three Mile runners than Chataway in Gordon Pirle of Bouth London Harriers and Frank Sando of Aylesford Paper Mills SC.
Pirie was timed in 18 minutes 44.8 seconds and Sando in 13 minutes 48.0 seconds. Both beat Sydney Wooderson's British record of 13 minutes 63.2 seconds and became the second and third Englishmen to beat 14 minutes for the distance.

The Scots Reserved
Their Biggest Cheer For Mac Bailey
Braway
Scotland came to London on May 24. The occasion was the Caledonian Games at the White City. Scots, their kilts swinging in the breeze, tossed the caber and threw the hammer, while in the background the skirl of the pipes could be heard.
But though the crowd of close on 30,000 enjoyed themselves in the sunshine and applauded all the per- 071formers heartily, they reserved their biggest cheer for a man who is Scots in name only, E. McDonald Bailey, 8 Britain's Trinidad-born Sprint Champion.
