Prague, Sept. 14.
Gordon Pirie, 24-year-old British distance runner, atoned for his recent Moscow reverse and avenged his 1952 Olympic defeat by Emil Zatopek when he beat the Czech Olympic ace in a thrilling 5,000 Metres race on the opening day of the two-day Czechoslovakia-Britain athletic match here.
Pirie ran a brilliantly judged race to win in 14 minutes 3.8 seconds, beating Zatopek by two-tenths of a second.
