Timeline
Katharina "Käthe" Anna Krauß (sometimes spelled Krauss; 29 November 1906 – 9 January 1970) was a German track and field athlete, who won three gold medals at the 1934 Women's World Games in London and a bronze medal in the 100 metres at the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin, where she was also on the German 4 × 100 m relay team.
She won the national women's title in the 100 metres from 1934 through 1938, in the 200 metres in 1932, 1934, and 1938 (in 1931 and 1933 she took second), and in the long jump and the pentathlon in 1937, and was on the national champion Dresdner SC 4 × 100 metre relay teams in 1932 and 1936.
At the 1934 Women's World Games in London, she won gold medals in the 100 metres (11.9 s), the 200 metres (24.9 s), and the 4 × 100 metre relay (48.6 s), and the bronze medal in discus (39.875 m).
At the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin, at that time holding the German women's record for the 100 metres, Krauß won the bronze medal in that event with a time of 11.9 s. She was one of three Olympic medalists that year from Dresdner SC, the others being Rudolf Harbig and Luise Krüger.
She was also on the German women's 4 × 100 m relay team that was in the lead but lost due to a dropped baton on the final leg; in the heats the German team had been faster than the Americans, the eventual winners, and beaten the world record with a time of 46.4 s; the American winning time in the final was half a second slower.
As national 100-metre champion, Krauß was the fastest runner on the German team, but had run dead heats with Marie Dollinger.
