In their first dual California Col- legiate Athletic Conference meet — the fast - improving University of California Gauchos — swept past the Long Beach trackmen by a score of 81 2 3 to 49 1 3. Boraker glided to an easy win in the hundred following this with a 21.7 triumph in the 220. On the eve of the famous Easter Relays now in their 21st year, the Gauchos had several strong con- tenders for individual medals. Some of the world ' s finest track and field athletes participated in the meet reigned over by Queen Peggy Humpreys and Princess Wendy Ross and golden Sherry Howard. Local fans were treated to one world record-trying per- formance and several other excel- lent races. Trojan shot-putter Dallas Long pushed the shot out around the 63 ' 2 mark to tie the world record of another meet partici- pant, Parry O ' Brien, who inci- dentally finished third behind Bill Niedar. The Trojans, ineligible to defend their national title, encoun- tered stiff competition from the likes of San Jose State and the Southern California Striders. The former team was lead by dash- men Bob Poynter and Ray Norton. The Striders offered such individ- ual stars as shot put king Parry O ' Brien, distance runner Jerome Walters, ex-Trojan pole vaulter Ronnie Morris and Wes McLeod, middle distance star. Rafer Johnson, student body Presi- dent at UCLA and one of the out- standing athletes in Southern Cali- fornia and Olympic decathlon champion was also a participant. The winner of the 20th Easter Re- lay mile, repeated this year. Hun- garian-born Laszlo Tabori led a talented field to the tape. In a pre-Easter Relay ' s warm-up: The Gauchos had to settle for show money in a triangular meet with Cal Poly and University of Cali- fornia at Los Angeles. UCLA scored over one hundred points to easily set the pace in the meet. The Mus- tangs of San Luis Obispo edged Santa Barbara by a 28-29 count. The Gauchos offered two first- place finishes when javelin throw- er Dave Fead and 440 man Bernie Weiner turned in season bests in their respective events. Dave Mead hurled the spead 200 feet, ' 2 in., his first venture over the charmed 200 mark this season. Develop- ing Sophomore, Weiner scorched to a 49.4 clocking in the single-lap competition. 92 - ■■■%■ i- Defending CCAA 100-yard champ Duke Ellington grabbed a third place in the broad jump with a leap of 22 ft. A 2 inches and always dependable Coyt Davis nab- bed a third spot in the mile. The Gauchos relay team took a second behind their big brothers, the Bears. The Easter Relays marked the final competitive efforts of the team as the La Cumbre went to press. At a later date the Gauchos were slated for service in the Redlands invitational and the West Coast Relays in Fresno. The season was to be capped off by the CCAA Con- ference championships. At mid-season, Car- ter could extend appreciation to a young team that is in a developmental stage. Sophomores Dave Boraker and Berni Wein- er have a few more years of competition. Such Southland stars as Gordon McClene- than and Bill Collins have left the team, yet Cordebes, Davis, and Law will undoubt- edly carry on the UCSB tradition of out- standing dictance men. Carter hoped that he has found a successor for the Foss brothers in pole vaulter Gary Hildebrandt. Meade, Perino and Kelliher have been consistent point-scorers in the javelin event.
