RELAY RECORD

A30

The British relay team --- D. C. Law, R, H. Dunk- ley, D. A. G. Pirie and G. W, Nankeville on Septem. ber 23 smashed the world record for the 6,000 Metres Relay Race in a triangular match against Sweden and Germany during the Stockholm v. London athletics match under floodlights at the White City Stadium, London.

Their time 15 minutes 27.2 seconds was three seconds better than the record. It was announced that the Britons had also smashed, by two seconds, a new world record set by the Hungarians earlier the same day.

Picture shows Dijl Nankeville winning the relay in world record time. Pirie turned a deficit of 10 yards into a lead of eight yards when he handed over to Nankeville, who ran Suné Karlsson, the world's best 1,500 Metres runner this year, "into the ground" to win by five yards.—Reuterphoto.
