The Soviet Union (38.82), France (38.87) and USA (38.98) were the
only teams under 39 in the heats, but the Americans, running in bizarre-
looking space age suits botched the final exchange when Lee McNeill
failed to take the baton cleanly from the experienced Calvin Smith.
They were disqualified for passing the stick beyond the exchange zone.
France (38.49) and the Soviets (38.55) were the semi-final winners,
with Britain (38.52) just behind the French.
Bryzgin led off well for the Soviets in the final, giving them a metre
lead, and excellent baton passing gave anchorman Savin a slight lead
over the quick French team, which the Kazakh built upon. Behind him,
100m silver medallist Christie gained 2m to move Britain from fourth
to second with a sub-9 anchor leg. The winning team, a
Ukrainian/Kazakstan combination included Muravyov, who became
the fourth man to win a second gold medal in the sprint relay (the oth-
ers being Loren Murchison, Frank Wykoff (3), and Harrison Dillard).
