From this group of track men Coach Scott picked his men for the different meets. Track is a very young sport in Creston High School and has not developed the interest of the athlete as have the other older sports. Track is increasing very fast in both interest and good track men. Creston's new cinder track will add to the speed of the future runners. Creston had a very successful year, having great competition in all of its meets. She placed fourth in her home Blue Grass Meet. She took third at the Orient Relays, and placed fifth in the Four Hundred and Forty Yard Relay held at the Drake Meet.
