dh, you are right on on only 2 so far.... Cochran in 48 in the 400h and Campbell in 56 in the Dec. Robinsion was on the 88 team that got dq'ed, not 84. And you've got the wrong year for Fuqua.
Happy birthday today (Saturday) to one of those gold medalists from Indiana. Born 94 years ago this day, this birthday athlete died at the age of 62. His brother also won an Olympic gold medal in the same Olympic event. Which Indiana athlete is it?

The question is wrong. The birthday person was born 84 years ago, not 94.

Roy Cochran had a clone, and one of them ran the 400H and the other the 400 x 4 R ? Or Roy is the mystic brother of one of the other 3 relayists ?! Help me here !
Commodore ran the first leg (50.1) on the gold medal relay team in Paris (1924). Of course you know that younger brother Roy ran the third leg (47.8) on the relay team in London (1948).
