Parry OBrien Sets 16-Pound Shot Put Mark at Journal Games
Parry OBrien, former Olympic champion, strode to a world class 62 feet 5 inches in the 16 pound shot at the Journal Games in Milwaukee. He aimed for the 62-12 standard from New York last year and exceeded it with a heavy ball, while pole vault rivals Don Bracz and Bob Gnion contested 16 feet. Bragg failed on two attempts and Guron cleared the bar on straight attempts, leaving the field behind.
