I'm sorry to give you the bad news - I do not believe that these are accessible online.\n\nWebsites such as:\n\nhttp://www.databaseolympics.com/\nhttp://www.olympic.org/uk/games/past/index_uk.asp?OLGT=1&OLGY=1948\n\ngive you the medal winners.\n\nI think that you have 2 options: Try to contact someone who has the (paper) results or find a library copy of a UK paper from 1948.\n\nFor the former, I suggest that you try the British Olympic Association (http://www.olympics.org.uk/index.asp) or the National Union of Track Statisticians (http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/~rsparks/nuts.htm)\n\nFor the latter, you will probably find the full results in The Times.\n\nBest of luck!\n\nHugh.

California Track and running news says: Gene Cole (Lancaster, Ohio) ran 48.0 in the 440 yards in the State Meet at Columbus, Ohio on May 22, 1948.\n\nHe also set the school records for 100yds, 220, and 440 that year.\n\nThe Lancaster High School Distinguished Alumni Hall of Fame lists him as class of 1948. So that's probably a good guess.

Do you want men's or women's? I don't know the date, but Babe Didrikson won the women's hurdles that year:\nhttp://www.olympic.org/uk/games/past/facts_uk.asp?OLGT=1&OLGY=1932\nYou could try search for info on her. It may say the date in her bio somewhere.
