SEATTLE (AP) — Nine
days ago Virginia hog
farmer Todd Scully Jr:,
sneaked into town and
walked away almost unno-

the mile.

At West Seattle Stadium,
in the privacy in which his

became the first man to

the sport. ,
PROFITABLE VISIT

The visit exceeded
Scully's expectationf.

After qualifying for a
summer tour of Europe,
including the world walking
championships in London in
September, by walking the
fastest 20 kilometres— 12.4
miles—ever by an American
on United States soil, Scully
decided to stay a couple
extra days.

After a few pointers from
Rudow, he zeroed in on the
world mile record of 6:06
held by Roger Mills of

England.

Scully walked it in 5:59.2,
becomeng the low gear
counterpart of Roger
Bannister, who was first to

break four minutes in the

within four hours, he also
bettered -the: American
walking record for 3,-000
metres and two miles. To
loosen up for those races, he
had gone out in the morning
for a 12-mile walk.

DIFFERENT BREED

-Among track and field
athletes, walkers are a
breed apart. Most once were
rumers who couldn't run
fast enough. Scully was one
of them. :
