United States failed to win a men’s Olympic track title as Finland, Japan, and Italy set new records in javelin throw, hop, step and jump, and the 1,500 meter. Beccali of Italy stunned favorites with a late surge to take the 1500m, while Nambu of Japan and Beccali led a strong foreign showing on a day that highlighted international triumphs over home rivals. The program also saw Babe Didrikson win a second Olympic title in the women’s 80-meter hurdles, setting an Olympic record in a Games debut for the event.
