He is George Sidney Sifhpson, Ohio State university senior and undisputed champion of the world. Such illustrious stars of the past as Kelly, Drew, Paddock, Locke, Borah and Hubbard have dimmed before the brilliant performances of the new *fastest human™ who, with his 9.4 seconds “100.” erased from the hooks a record that had with- stood the assaults of a quarter cen- tury.
