,ii ,pl lt r-can-anim 4' . .f ' CHS Expected to Press Rincon for City Honors With fifteen returning lettermen and depth in every event the Trojan tracksters opened their 1963 season by downing Sunnyside 73-45 and became the top contender to press pre-season favorite, Rincon for city and state honors. In the victory over the Blue Devil thinclads, junior Reid Ehlenburg paced the Blue and White by collecting a first in the broad jump, with a 20 foot, 1991 inch jump, while holding down third places in the 100-yard and 200-yard dashes. Senior Kelly Hanson covered the 440-yard dash in 54.2 to cop a blue ribbon while Ralph Smith cleared the ll-6 mark in the pole vault to snare top honors. Catalinais track coach, Galen Bell, expected his squad to be especially tough in the Weight events, broad jump, hurdles, 440-yard dash and mile run. Last year's school decathalon Winner, Reid Ehlenburg, was expected to give other city high schools trouble in the broad jump and hurdle events, as was Kelly Hanson in the quarter mile. The weight events were led by seniors Frank Knoop and Tim Burr along with juniors Craig Gillaspie and Robert Bergen. The quintet of George Cunningham, Bruce Duffy, Carl Bowlby, and Steve Godzak were expected to be tough in the mile run. The CHS tracksters played a total of thirteen meets during the regular season and were also the host of the city relays. Six other city high schools were scheduled to participate in the annual relays. Catalina was also to be host of the AA-4 division qualifying meet. The Trojans finished the year by competing in the state AA track meet at the Uni- versity of Arizona.
