16-Foot Pole Vault Barrier Appears Safe for Now
In San Francisco discussions of breaking barriers center on pole vault. Cornelius Warmerdam recalls a 15 ft 8 3 4 in world mark set in 1942 and doubts Bragg can reach 16 ft soon. Bragg, an 18-year-old Villanova freshman, shows speed and potential but needs technique, with peak expected in about five years. Other events hint at future barriers in high jump and discus as O Brien and Gordien show promise.
