Gala Show of two Sprint Monarchs

The sprint monarchs from Rome were also the stars of ISTAF following the Olympic Games. Armin Hary of Germany won the 100m in 10.2 seconds, continuing his victorious sequence from the Olympic final. But the number one attraction for the 40,000 spectators in the Olympic Stadium was the American Wilma Rudolph who had won both individual women’s sprints and the sprint relay in Rome.
