Athletes from fifteen nations competed in Chicago. Stella Walsh of Poland set a new 200 meter world record at 24.1 seconds, while Jadwiga Wajsowna broke the women's discus mark at 137 feet 3 inches. Mildred Didrickson also surpassed the prior discus record with 133 feet 10 inches. Finland’s Lauri Lehtinen withdrew from the 5,000 meters with an injury, dampening the expected duel with Ralph Hill. The U.S. total led with 103 points, followed by Poland 34 and Germany 25. Ralph Metcalfe matched the world mark in the 100 meters and 110 meter hurdles tied the Olympic standard. Walsh won the 100 meters in 11.9 seconds. Didrickson won the high jump with five feet three inches. The “one-gal team” drew huge crowds and even disrupted events, prompting police intervention.
