Who Won

P:Donald Ray Lash, Indiana University runner: the fastest two-mile race in history: in 8 min. 58 sec., shading Paavo Nurmi's indoor record (8:58.2) and his own outdoor world record (8:58.3); in Boston's Garden.

P:Emile Allais of France: the world's downhill ski racing championship; by shooting down Les Houches, Alpine run that drops 3,070 ft. in two miles, in 4 min. 3 2/5 sec., without a spill; in a snowstorm, at Chamonix, France. The women's champion, famed Christl Cranz of Germany, got down a less steep course in 5 min. 17 sec.

P:John Henry Lewis, Negro pugilist: a sensationally hard-fought 15-round fight in which he defended his light heavyweight championship against Italian Al Ettore, with whom last month he fought a draw; by the deciding vote of Referee Leo Houck, when the judges disagreed; in Philadelphia.

P: Notre Dame's crack basketball team, paced by Forward Johnny Moir and Center Paul Nowak; its major intersectional game of the season, against New York University; 52-26; in New York.
