business The toe belongs to the greatest putter the world has ever known Parry of Southern California University Olympic champion and world recordholder in the business of having the missile for distance Just how did a toe become important to a shotputter You might ask And the story is this In 1930 OBrien had set a national college freshman record of ft in Instead of being satisfied his coach Jess began experimenting with OBrien to the extent that by the athletes sophomore year his putting style had been completely rebuilt Under the new style Parrys right toe is the key to his success Most shot putters stand squared away in the ring but when he puts the shot OBriens big toe is pointed toward the rear of the circle Among other things this means that his heel and back are to the direction of the put believes this vastly improved OBriens leg drive Whatever did it progressively this young stalwart has broken the National Collegiate Athletic shotpnt record set a new mark for the National

Olympic heave was just the 57foot mark But that was merely a start Todays OBrien with hi toe working smoothly to help provide great legdrive in his pushoff is getting closer and closer to the mark and may be able to achieve this come the next Olympics Or perhaps sooner At any rate hes one athlete of whom you can truthfully say the greatest the world has ever seen and prove it by figures Recently a
