Let's recall Evelyn Ashford as she gets out to a great start, straight into the lead, and sears away from the field to clinch a runaway win in a WR of 10.79, first woman ever to beat 10.8 (wind-legal), over 100m (0.6) at the Air Force Academy (A) 42 years ago yesterday

At the US Olympic Festival more precisely, Diane Williams also enjoys a strong race to finish runner-up in a PB of 10.94 on the outside.

Kenny Harrison 16.76 John Tillman 16.67

Today is the 68th birthday of Carlo Thränhardt, former indoor WR holder and still standing equal third on the combined indoor and outdoor lists, seventh at the Olympics in 1988 and the World Championships in 1983 in the men's HJ - PB 2.37/2.42i (NR)

Today is also the 70th birthday of James Owens (second from left), rather more known from his career in the NFL but also sixth over 110mh at the Olympics in 1976 - PB 13.46/13.4

Tom Petranoff turned in an impressive thirteen displays over 90m, including a huge WR of 99.72 in Los Angeles in mid May, in the JT (Old Spec) in a strong summer in 1983
