It will be the last race of his ca- reer, he said in an interview here, and his last shot at the world r ord for the mile established by Glenn Cunningham, in 4 minutes 6 4-5 seconds, at Princeton, June 16, 1934. Lovelock's old world mark, 4 min- utes 7 3-5 seconds, was made Princeton, June 16, 1933. Now at the height of his form, soon after capturing the 1500-meter at the Olympic Games in Berlin, where he set a new world record of 3 minutes 47 415 seconds in that event. Lovelock is ready to set a hot pace against Cunningham, San Romani, Don Lash, Phil Edwards and others who will toe the mark against him at Princeton. After his appearance in the Unit- ed States, Lovelock will retire from racing and devote all his time to studying medicine at St. Mary's Hos- pit London.
