Who Won

>Loyola of Chicago's Tom O'Hara, 21: the Columbian Mile at Manhattan's Knights of Columbus indoor track meet by 40 yds., in 3 min. 58.5 sec.--second fastest mile (behind his own clocking of 3 min. 56.6 sec.) ever run indoors. Other K. of C. winners: LaSalle's John Uelses, who captured the pole vault with a leap of 16 ft. 1/4 in., Canada's Bruce Kidd, who beat Australia's Ron Clarke by 2 yds. in the 2-mile run.

> Germany's Manfred Schnelldorfer, 20: the men's title at the world figure skating championships in Dortmund, Germany. Schnelldorfer added the world crown to his Olympic gold medal by building up a huge lead in the compulsory figures, performing a conservative but nearly flawless free-skating routine. The U.S.'s best: New Jersey's Scotty Allen, 15, bronze-medal winner in the Olympics, who finished fourth.

> North Carolina's Richard Petty, 26: the Daytona 500 at Florida's Daytona International Speedway. Driving a beefed-up (about 550-h.p.) 1964 Plymouth, Petty lapped the entire field, averaged 154.3 m.p.h. to lead a 1-2-3 Plymouth sweep of the U.S.'s richest (at $133,000) stock-car race.
