A gentleman from Denmark, Mr. Leif Bugge has been corresponding with me for over a year. Leif is an incredible fan of the sport and has put some of his collection of Track and Field film onto a youtube site.
Of particular interest to him are Harrison Dillard and Bobby Morrow. He once sent me by email over 100 newspaper articles in multiple languages about Morrow from all over the world. If you go to www.youtube.com and then after getting there just type in his name Leif Bugge in the box and click
you will be taken to a large number of film clips of track and field. Click on the first one that is at the top of the list. This will open you to a world of over 100 videos that he has uploaded onto Youtube. Many thanks to you, Leif for bringing this to our attention and for your efforts to preserve the sport.
