Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart arrested

Jim Neidhart (Newport Harbor, Newport Beach, CA), the 1973 California State Meet shot put champion, was arrested. http://www.calgaryherald.com/technology/Anvil+Neidhart/3493079/story.html

1973 State Meet
Community Stadium, Woodland
June 2, 1973

I attended the preliminaries on Friday, June 1, 1973, but I returned to Berkeley on Saturday for a major invitational track meet. I later regretted making that decision as Wilson of San Francisco won the team title.
