I don't understand... That leaves me wondering when wind measurements became a part of the rules governing acceptance of records in the sprints, hurdles and horizontal jumps. I can see a certain logic in Ohio State deciding that if Jesse Owens' PR wasn't subject to wind-aiding rules, Joe Greene's shouldn't either. (A more usual resolution might be to asterisk Owens' mark and disqualify Green's.) In any event, that explanation would fail, if Owens' jump, in 1935, was subject to helping-wind measurement. Can anyone tell us when that rule came into effect, in world competition and in the NCAA? Cheers, Roger
