Nieder to Join U S Olympic Track Team in Frisco Meet
Nieder leaves Wednesday to join the United States Olympic track squad in San Francisco. The 53-man team will stage a money raising intra squad meet in Frisco on Oct 13 then head to Los Angeles for more outings before departing for Melbourne Australia on Nov 7 or 8. The Kansas University shot put star plans to return to California for the Games and finish his KU degree next June. He hopes to throw 60 feet by Games time and says the knee injury is now much stronger. He will stay in the insurance business after competition and foresees at least four more years of shot putting, with the 1960 Olympics on his radar.
