USAWA

By Bill Clark

What had been planned as a new dimension in all-round competition proved to be a total failure.

Not a single call concerning the unique competition/record day was received, turning the day into a gym meet and assorted other competitions – including the record day.

The knockout meet (Sweet 16/Elite 8) became a normal meet with competition in all four lifts won by John Carter and Janet Thompson.
