In 1935 (the year before the Berlin Olympics), Jesse Owens set the world record in the long jump with a leap of 26 ft 8 in, and this record would stand for 25 years (a very rare length of time for a track and field record), until it was finally broken by Ralph Boston in 1960.
The rank-size rule (or rank-size distribution) of city populations, is a commonly observed statistical relationship between the population sizes and population ranks of a nationâs cities.
Size designations were set, for each size. For example, a tomato marked as Large means it must be larger than 2-1/2 inches in diameter but no larger than 2-25/32 inches in diameter, to keep the tomatoes fairly uniform in size.
