U.K. PHOTO-FINISH DATA, 1958Photo-finish equipment was installed at White City stadium and used for the first time at the L.A.C. Schools meeting in April 1958. Only a few details have emerged from subsequent meetings that year. High Hurdles and 3000m Steeplechase were not covered, since they finished on the back-straight at White City. Times in brackets are the official (manual) returns.
