"You can't regiment track and field." said Kelly, indicating that the Russian program of huge forced sports encampments could not possibly pay olT. THE RUSSIAN MACHINE is operating more effieicntly than in the last Olympics. But the state-sponsored Russians are failing badly in their frenzied attempt to match the American rate of improvement.

This metric mile event has a field that includes seven of the 4-minuU milers of track history and the world's top stars at the metric distance. There are three heats with four in each group qualifying for Saturday's finals.

The heats themselves could see the Olympic record 3:45.2 toppling and 1952 champion' Josy Barthel of Luxembourg would prove lucky if he can get past the first heat, The opposition includes Isvan Rosza-volgyi, Hungary's world record holder at 3:40.6 and 4-minute man; Klaus Richtzenhain, Germany; Stanislav Jungwirth, Czechoslovakia, and Australia's Jim Bailey, who has broken four minutes in the mile.
