A. 2 3 (TITLE)
1. 6 10 CU START OF RACE Just forty-six days after the four-minute mile barrier was smashed by Britains Roger Bannister, Australias John Landy, running at Turku, Finland, thrills the sport world as he sets an astounding new mark for the distance of three minutes and fifty-eight seconds! Here, the 23-year-old Melbourne student is seen in slow motion in an earlier race at the International meet in Finland ... more or less a trial run to prepare him for his all out attempt to better Bannisters record!

5. 21 34 MS RUNS PAST CAMERA Landy runs flat-footed -- a style altogether different from that of the long striding Bannister or Americas fast stepping Wes Santee. In the race pictured here, Landy at the half-way mark is running three seconds ahead of Bannisters time. But he was paced too fast and tired at the finish.
