Superb Team Work By British Sprinters Could Overwhelm Americans

Geoff Dyson, Britain's chief athletics coach, assembled the plek of Britain's sprinters at Motspur Park to teach them the latest, alickcat method of relay baton-changing. Said Dyson“We're going to scrap the system we irled for the 1952 Olympics. This new way is faster, but I must warn you it has a further element of risk. Yet if we are to succeed we must try out new ideas.”

This Sunday session was the first of four designed to speed up the lads and lasses who will represent Britain in the 4 x 100 Metres Olympic Relay.
