Re: Jesse Owens college trivia
>Both HJers: Albritton and Mel Walker
dj, no one knows more than you ( I mean that ! ) but Walker's not the one I found. I think you are right on Walker; w/o looking it up I think he set an indoor WR in the HJ.
I found Jack Keller of Ohio State setting WR in the HH, in about 1934... I am not at home so this is memory from looking it up last night. Positive on the Keller part and 90 % on the Jack part.

Re: Jesse Owens college trivia
Jack Keller finished at OSU in '33, the same year Owens was getting out of HS.
Walker did have an indoor "WR" also an outdoor WR after Albritton. I'm pretty sure Walker was OSU '37, Albritton '36, Owens -37, but last there in '36.
