SUN-DEMOCRAT, PADUCAH, KENTUCKY TUESDAY, MARCH 4, 1975 Francie Larrieu breaks world record in women's mile run ricans overwhelm Russians in meet PAGE 15 Ante RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -Once again the American women stole the show In the fourth USSR-USA Indoor track meet, and garrulous Francie Larrieu admits there's an assault under way on running records held by men. "Women and men are Dhvsi- ologically different, but anything is possible," she said after running the fastest women's mile in history by one-half second in Monday night's fourth annual meet between the two countries. me Americans gained an overwhelming victory, 171-106, against an inexperienced Russian team that lacked many of that nation's world-class athletes Although there were fewer . women's events, the U.S. wom- ff T 1 ! unser neue uncertain effect on racing ONTARIO, Calif. (AP) -Bobby Unser finally won another national championship after six years, but there may not be an encore anytime soon. "The root of all good these days is money," said the 1974 driver of the year and champion of the U.S. Auto Club's big car circuit. "Right now, we don't have enough money to mount a season-long campaign for another title." , Unser, 40, who along with car owner uan uurney. nas compiled one of auto racing's most impressive records in the" last seven years, said, "Unless things , change, we'll be severely handicapped. To win a championship, you have to run all the races on the schedule. And that takes money, gobs of it. We may not be able to make them all." " Gurney, whose shop is at nearby Santa Ana, builds the screaming Eagles that have virtually dominated the USAC circuit the last few years. He isn't sure what effect the current economic 'situation will have on racing. "Because of the general money shortage in manufacturer and sponsor circles, there will be fewer cars of new design and probably fewer new teams and drivers," he said of the forthcoming 11-race championship series that includes the rich Indianapolis 500. "The establishment will be there, at least for the 500 milers. Otherwise, the general consensus is 'We'll race as long as money and equipment will last.' This attitude has brought our championship car sales to a screeching halt and we are trying hard to find new avenues of expansion to offset the losses we are facing."

In men's competition, the Americans defeated the Russians in 12 of 15 events and piled . up a 98-62 margin. Five records were broken and one tied, all ' but two by the Americans. Miss Larrieu, an articulate x 22-year-old UCLA student who says it's tough keeping abreast of her studies while traveling the track circuit, still views the competition as fun. 'i "When it becomes a chore, I'll stop running," she said.

To reach the bar, each Jumper had to cross two slight inclines spanning runways used for the pole vault and long jump before turning in for the leap. "I've been jumping well indoors, and I did well tonight, but that's not the best approach I've ever seen," Miss Huntley said. Miss Larrieu had little competition as she raced against the clock in the mile, finishing with a time of 4:28.5. En route, she also broke her own 1,500-meter mark with a clocking of .4:09.8. Her previous best in the mile, either indoors or out- hag Oscar M. Olson, dropped out of racing at the end of 1974. Olson's business is steel and toilet seats. His steel interests were affected by the economic disaster that struck the auto industry. The slump in the building trade hit his toilet seat business a back-handed blow.

World 880 record holder Rick Wolhuter of Chicago, recipient of the Sullivan Award for his performances last year, won in . 1:49.4, more than a second above his American indoor mark. Afterward, he said "there aren't too many goals left for me in track, but I have to change to keep my interest up. The mile is the glamour of that and it seems to be the one for me." Another world record holder, Dwight Stones of Long Beach, Calif., took the high jump with a lackluster 7-3. Stones complained about a sore ankle and "sour grapes." " "I'm not in really great shape," he said. "I'm not really that motivated. I was pleased with 7-3, but fed up with these AAU ( Amateur Athletic Union) meets. The way they treat us, they herd us around like cattle."'' Stones said he had no plans to compete after this meet but would begin preparing for the Olympics. .

' Owner John Wilcox of Atlanta, another Committee member, had hinted last weekend that a candidate would be reccommended this" week to the NBA's Board of Governors. He added, "I personally think it would be in the best interest to" have a Commissioner who is not presently or has not been' aligned with any team or any previous administration. "We need someone who comes in with a strong national background and not necessarily in sports who has a substantial history of decision making. ' " "We need a strong ruler," he said. . A number of prominent politicians have beeri reported under consideration, among them Lawrence O'Brien, formerly the Postmaster General and chairman of the Democratic National Committee. Wilcox' statement appeared to rule out the possibility that Simon Gourdine, the league's deputy commissioner and vice president of administration, would permanently hold the job if no successor is chosen.
