This is being done in all track and field events. "Wes Santee is a splendid example of this new type of teaching. It used to be that a fellow might reach his peak as a distance runner at 27 years of age.

But look at Santee, who is 21 and approaching a four-minute mile. That's because he's had this specialized training." SVele. 30. a playground director at DeFremery Center here, hasn't broad jumped in competition since he won the Games title in 1948 at London, where he won with a leap of 25 feet 8 inches. He decided to quit at the time, figuring he had reached his ultimate goal in the sport.

Willie amassed a remarkable record before hanging up his spikes. He won the NCAA title in 1947 and captured the national AAU crown in 1946 and 1947. He set the NCAA mark of 26-6 in 1947, but the distance was still 2V4 inches short of the world record still held by Jesse Owens. Willie represented San Diego State College. It was from San Diego that Steele came to Oakland for his new job.

He had worked as a director in the San Diego Recreation Department for six years. Steele said he has read about Monte Upshaw, the Piedmont High boy who has jumped 24-4 Vt this year, and he's anxious to watch the prep in competition. "Maybe I could give the boy a few pointers, if he wishes," offered Steele. Steele added that he would be willing to help any broad jumpers if they want to stop by DeFremery Center, 16th and Adeline Streets. Although there are no track and field facilities at DeFremery, Steele hopes some will be put in soon so he can teach the kids how to run, jump and throw.

"We are already getting better performances because coaches are specializing in their teaching. Instead of merely teaching boys how to run, jump and throw, coaches are backing up this instruction by putting to use practical knowledge they've gained as the result of a closer study of the human body and its functions.
