Google for bannister chataway brasher and the first result points to
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/main.jhtml?xml=/sport/1954/05/07/socrum07.xml
goto page 2 of the article and you will find :
"The competitors, in addition to Bannister and Chataway, were the Olympic
steeplechaser, C. W. Brasher, W. T. Hulatt of Alfreton, the Northern
Counties champion, and two Oxford runners, G. F. Dole and A. D. Gordon".
