Blazing the path to victory for the Trojans were Bill Psaltis, who threw the shot 49,8151 and the discus 143'435,', both of which were good for first places. Senior Bob Thompkins scored a totol of 1131 points for the victorious Trojans. Bob Won the 100 yard dash in 10.6 and the 220 yard dash in 23.5, and then anchored the Winning 880 relay team. Thinclads Run In Thirteen Meets A total of thirteen meets during the year kept the thinclads busy, and, for the third year in a row, Cata- lina was host to the City Relays, held on March 10. Six schools, besides CHS competed in this annual event. Dual meets were with Rincon, Tucson, Sunny- side and Pueblo. Besides the dual meets, a three Way meet with Rincon and Amphi, at Rincon, was sched- uled. The Southern Arizona Relays at Tucson, the Glendale Invitational, the division meet at Catalina and the interdivision at Mesa, and the climax of the track season, the state meet at the University of Ari- zona rounded out the season. i 1 ' ia UIQ in he . 1...- !
