He reclaimed the world indoor Best feb. 21, sailing 19-53/4 at Inglewood calif., then climaxed his . Tour with a performance that equated the second Best vault Ever in doors or outdoors. Bubka cleared 19-8 /4 and 19-6 /4 last summer. This last meet was the most satisfying of my five meets Here said Bubka. He won three times and withdrew from one meet saying he had an injury to his left shoulder at last sunday s meet at san Diego. This was the main one. The psychological pressures were very difficult they were difficult because of the tur Moil that had marred Bubka s previous appearance in the Garden feb. 14 in the Wanamaker millrose games. In that meet the pole vault area was littered with photographers meet officials and unauthorized personnel and Olson and dial complained they were interfered with during jumps. They asked for extra jumps and were Given one apiece. Then Bubka argued vociferously that his brother Vasily also should have been granted an extra attempt for the same reason As the two americans. Meet officials refused that request but granted Sergei one More attempt instead of his brother. It did t help. Sergei failed to Clear a height resulting in his Only loss of the season. A photo pole vaulter Sergei Bubka of the soviet Union still on top. He broke the world indoor Mark four times this season Friday night there was tighter Security around the pole vault area including a red screened Barrier along the infield Side and a narrow rape on the Side nearest the track. Nevertheless Bubka was not completely Happy. I had problems again with my run up because of the wooden surface said Bubka. He is accustomed to competing on tartan surfaces indoors in Europe. I had to adapt. It was very difficult. But i Man aged to Cope with the he said even if some things went wrong on this tour we should forget about them and take Back to the soviet Union the Best that happened Here. After winning to night i am satisfied to return to my coun try in High in contrast to Bubka Olson s spirits were Low. After passing the opening height of 18 o a he missed three times at 18-41/2, run Ning through the pit on his first two at tempts and falling Way under the bar on his third try.
