world Men Long Jump History

Venue: Panathenaic Stadium. Capp.:3 0,000.
-- competitors from -- nations.
Three days before his high jump win, Clark won the long jump title on his third jump after two fouls. He had placed second in the 1895 US Championships, but even in 1896 a jump of 7m would have been required to give this the stamp of a top class event.
