I got this:

" Peter Snell is the only man since 1920 to win the 800m and the 1,500m at the same Olympics." (1960 Olympics in Rome)

From an Olympic.org/uk site

Peter Snell is the only male Track and Field athlete since 1920 to win both the 800m and the 1,500m at the same Olympics. He won both of these events at the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo.
