Original Toronto Star caption: Most of the fans who ventured to Maple Leaf Gardens last night for The Toronto Star Indoor Games came to see if American Billy Olson could once again better his own world indoor pole vault record. But it wasn't Oldon's night and he failed after three attempts. He'll get another chance in Dallas tonight.
