In 1951 he was the United States 100 yards champion. In 1955 he equalled the then world record for the 100 yards. CareerOriginally a champion school football player in Chicago, Golliday did not take track and field seriously until his senior year in 1949, winning the Illinois school's 100 yard title.[3] As a student at Northwestern University, Golliday was USA champion in the 100 yard sprint in 1951.[3][4] He was considered the favourite for the 100 metres title at the 1952 Helsinki Olympics[5] but injury denied him a chance to compete.[6][7] An impressive win in the 1952 NCAA 100 yards event showed he was in good early season form (10.4 s into a stiff wind[1]). However, the recurrence of a muscle injury suffered in a semi-final of the 1952 AAU meet meant that he hobbled out of his heat at the 1952 US Olympic Trials.[6] Lindy Remigino, the winner of 100 metres title at the 1952 Olympics, magnanimously stated that "of course, Jimmy Golliday was the favourite in the trials. I think he was the fastest of us all".[5] In 1952 he entered the United States Army, and competed on service teams in Europe, before returning to the United States and Northwestern University in 1954.[3][8][9] In 1955, he equalled the world record for the 100 yards at 9.3 seconds.[8][10] In 1956, he set an indoors world record for the 60 yards dash.,[11][12] but injury again denied him a chance to compete at the 1956 Melbourne Olympics.[6] He trailed in last in his semi-final of the 100 metres due to a muscle injury - another occurrence of the type of injury that plagued him throughout his career.[13] After retirement, he is reported to have lived in California selling insurance, before returning to Chicago because of ill health.[14] He died in 1971, aged only 39. The cause of death was listed as pneumonia, a condition he suffered as a complication following surgery for ulcers at Downey Veterans Hospital in Illinois.[14] World rankingsGolliday was voted by the experts at Track and Field News to be ranked among the best in the USA and the world in the 100 yards/meters sprint event in the period from 1951 to 1955.[15][16]
