Black Flash Peacock Lights Track Fame at Temple
Eulace Peacock, Temple University sprinter and broad jumper, rose to prominence by defeating Jesse Owens in Nationals at Lincoln and in subsequent meets, then bested Owens again in New York before a European tour. The 1936 Olympic sprints may hinge on Peacock and Owens with Metcalfe as possible third, as foreign rivals struggle to catch the trio. Peacock’s speed and power suggest a two-man sprint battle ahead, rivaling Owens in early season form.
