Do you have any record of Robert Hamlin won 2nd place in the 1961 National A.A.U.Junior Olympic Finals in the running broad jump of the midget division? Who won 1st place?

This is a wonderful site and tribute to a very deserving gentleman. Can you tell me if his name is pronounced with a long i or short i? I assume it is long since it comes from 'Simon'.

Thank you for your marvelous coverage of "Sim" Iness, one of our many Compton Junior College sports greats. Please pardon me, I must correct you on one major point. That is, Raymond "Tay" Brown was the football coach who guided Sim's 1948 team to the Rose Bowl victory (one of three and the team was recognized as the 1948 undefeated Junior College team). Ken Carpenter, a magnificent coach in his own rite and a 1936 Olympic discus gold medalist was Sim's Discus Coach and the assistant football team coach. That year, Sim also set the National Junior College Discus Record.

I was a Compton Junior College student from 1947 to 1949 and joined the Navy Reserve when Sim Iness did. As a Navy Reserve Commander, Tay Brown was our commander of the Compton Navy Reserve Unit. Those were the days !!

By the way, Christoffer Slotte From: Finland 8Helsinki and others who are interested, can find the movie career activities of "Sim" Iness at the website for the Tulare Historical Museum Organization. See the page headed "Tulkare History Timeline," following the 1992 Museum expansion entry and the 1930 Robert Bruce Mathias entry and starting with the 1930 Garland Simeon (Sim) Iness entry (bet no one knew his first name was Garland and is middle name was Simeon).

Great website. I wasn't alive in 1952 when Sim was in Helsinki, but I have talked to him over the phone after that. He said he was a football extra in Trouble Along the Way starring John Wayne + in one other movie as extra. Does anyone know what movie? He didn't recall the name. So he worked in 4 movies in all.
