RECORD BREAKERS

WORLD AND OLYMPIC RECORDS TUMBLE AT HELSINKI

Helsinki, July' 23.

Andy Stanfield, coloured American, today won the Olympic 200 Metres Gold Modal. The United States had a clean sweep of the day's highlight race, for they also held second and third places.

Walter Thane Baker was second with Jim Gathers third. Stanfield's time was 20.7 seconds, equalling the Olympic record set by Jesse Owens in 1936. Baker and Gathers were both clocked at 20.8. Britain's McDonald Balloy came fourth, a further 0.2 seconds behind.

United States sprinters have won nine of the 200 Metres Gold Medals awarded in Olymple history. Canada took the other two Gold Medals.

Stanfield simply shot round the track like rocket, and as he came into the straight there was clear daylight between Jim and his nearest rivals,
