Sport in Short: Athletics

THE sports administrators who came to be known as the 'Gang of Four' following their electioneering before yesterday's annual meeting of the British Athletic Federation have all been successful. Peter Radford became the chairman, David Bedford the honorary secretary, and John Lister the honorary treasurer. Bob Greenoak, who campaigned alongside them, was elected vice-chairman in place of Radford. They have stressed the need for more development and cash at club level. Their success is likely to make life difficult for the BAF president, Arthur McAllister, whose position as president was not voted upon.
