New England Runner should be added to that list IMHO. Regards, Martin Winfried Kramer wrote: Dear Netters, I have compiled a list with major track and field periodicals. Any amendments and additions are appreciated. ATHLETICS (monthly), 1185 Eglington Avenue East, Suite 601, North York,

t-and-f: Ryun picked as best high schooler ever

From ESPN.COM as picked by their Page 2 staff http://espn.go.com/page2/s/list/highschool.html beat out Tiger Woods and LeBron James to name a few. List seems to definitely show a male bias. Just to name one girl, how about Janet Evans? Arguably best distance swimmer of all-time; 3 golds at 1988

t-and-f: Best HS athletes

Netters: The idea of trying to set up an all-sport top 10 HS list is ridiculous. For each sport, maybe, but not for all. Yes, Janet Evans belongs on the list in a high spopt. But so do Donna deVarona and the numerous other teenage Olympic swimming champions. Few of you listers

Re: t-and-f: Francis speaks some more

Just a few days ago in this debate, I said that disavowing drugs was what Charlie needed to do. And now he's done it. He didn't have to prostrate himself, just commit himself to living within the rules. I hope that this is not a cynical rehabilitation of Charlie by the IAAF or whomever, as

A quick heads up, Maurice Greene is scheduled to be on the Dan Patrick Radio show on your local ESPN radio affiliate sometime in the next hour or two. You can also hear the show online at www.espnradio.com. Adam

t-and-f: Athens HJ meet: Sokolovsky 2.33

Andrey Sokolovskyi cleared 2, 33 m. to win the international high jump, organized by the Municipality of Herakleion in Athens. The Russian jumper is now on the top of the world list for this season. Ghenady Moroz of Belarus placed second with 2, 20 m., the same height with the Greek Dimitris

Re: t-and-f: Athens HJ meet: Sokolovsky 2.33

Impressive jumping by Sokolovskiy (and also by the women - four over 2.00 or higher already this winter!) But, now to the point. Sokolovskiy's 2.33 is not the world's best this year. Charles Clinger cleared 2.34 last Saturday in Nampa, Idaho. Mats Åkerlind Gävle, Sweden Michalis Nikitaridis

Re: t-and-f: Fwd: Yahoo Track and Field News

And further to P. F. Talbot's message, notice the little Chambers video snippet. There have been little pockets of Francis support in the media in the Aussie and Canuck colonies but I have seen none in the UK. Where is the outrage about Chamber's association with Flex? It makes me want to vomit.

t-and-f: 'Illegal' HJ sty;le

Netters: I have in my files a pucture of a girl high jumper of several years ago in NJ who had a unique style, which I have been told is illegal under USTAF rules, but legal in high school. This girl, whose PR was about 5-4 and who won a few local titles in her day, would

t-and-f: Age correction

Netters: Sorry for the rror on Ted Meredith's age at Stockholm, but I was going by what I thought was a reliable source: the picture caption at the NY Armory on his defeat of Mel Sheppard at Stockholm. At that tiume, and for some years thereafter, the age limit in prep schools was 21, in

t-and-f: GUARDIAN UK ARTICLE: Jones to leave Francis for Nike's sake

I'm surprised no one sent this around earlier. Got it from Letsrun.com. If this actually comes to pass then the only thing that matters in this whole messy situation is money. The moral is when Nike talks (and not USATF, IAAF, etc), Marion listens. Jones to leave Francis for Nike's sake Duncan

Re: t-and-f: 'Illegal' HJ sty;le

There are a couple of corollary observations that go with this. There is a misconception, perhaps rare, that if you finish crossing the 'plane of the bar', you've cleared. I suppose the logic goes with if you 'break the plane of the bar' without clearing, it's a miss. Anyway, it's obviously a
