Protest May Replace O Olympic Boycott By Negro Athletes
Track star Lee Evans of San Jose State College says Negro athletes voted to attend the Mexico City Olympic Games. Evans, training near Spokane, said the vote was nearly unanimous during the Olympic trials in Los Angeles last month. He noted Edwards planned to announce the action earlier but kept it private. Evans cautioned no specific protest plan had been decided, and athletes expect to compete while possibly signaling dissent.
