Obit Collett Athletics

FILE – In this Sept. 7, 1972 file photo, two Olympic officials stand at attention, right, as U.S. runners Wayne Collett (978) and Vince Matthews stand at ease on the top level of the victory stand at Olympic Stadium in Munich. The crowd booed the two after Collett, who placed second in the 400-meter dash, joined first-place Matthews on the top level. The two then stood at ease and sideways to the flag as the National Anthem was played in a protest of U.S. civil rights policies back home. Collett, a silver medalist in the 400-meters at the 1972 Munich Olympics who starred in the hurdles, sprints and relays at UCLA, died Wednesday, March17, 2010.. He was 60. (AP Photo/File)
