THESE STANDARD MEDALS How Fast? How High?

WOULD NOT BE AT

ALL EASY TO WIN

By "RECORDER”

Standard Medals for athletic achievement are now an institution, in quite a few countries. The Amateur Athletic Union of the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland awards such medals and if one is not up to the standard of an AAA Standard Medal, there are also available Area Standard Medals, County Standard Medals and even Juniors' and Youths' Standard Medals.

The general idea behind the award of Standard Medals stems from the fact that the standard in some events can reach such a high level that some outstanding athletes who only a few years ago could have been AAA Champions are today unable even to reach an AAA final,

How Far? For An

International

The standard in international athletics is so high these days

that a High Jump of 9 feet 4 inches or Shot Put of 10 ført is not really an international class performance. Undoubtedly, many an athlete who cannot achieve these performances geta his inter- patiostai colours, but

only in those instances where the nation ha represents is very weak in some particular event.

The table below shows the 100th best performance of all time in each standard athletic event at the end of 1955 and the 100th best performance in each standard athletic event last year. 13 suggested in the accompanying article that the IAAF could Insun Standard Medals first and second class to those who achieve theso marks. The tables show, only too clearly, that it takes a very good performance to be considered even a Sceondi Class Althlete,
