...time of the day and good enough for 959 points under the complicated decathlon scoring system.* Then, a soaring 25-ft. 9¾-in. long jump, best of Toomey's career, gave him another 994 points and kept him in the lead.

Southern Cal's Trojans have already seen all they want to of Alcindor: he scored 56 against them in the opening game of the season...
