Scoreboard
P: Competing for the last time as a Villanova undergraduate, Irish-born Ron Delany led the Wildcats to the I.C.4-A team title by lowering his own meet record for the mile from 4:08.4 to 4:07.8, and winning the 880-yd. run, just 1 1/4 hr. later, with a fast 1 :50. It was all just a warmup for next week's meeting at Compton, Calif, with Aussie Herb Elliott, who got ready himself by winning the California Relays mile in 4:02.7.
P: In 63 years, only the great Tom Fool ever carried 135 lbs. and won New York's Carter Handicap. But Belmont's Handicapper Jimmy Kilroe reckoned that Wheatley Stable's dark bay Bold Ruler was just the colt to do it again. The Ruler carried the weight to the wire, 1 1/2 lengths in front of Howell E. Jackson's Tick Tock.
