The D.H.S. track team, repeating its champion- ship performance of the previous year, successfully defended its Class C title in the 32nd edition of the annual Massachusetts State Meet, defeating the other teams in this class by an overwhelming mar- gin. lt seems as though good things come in pairs, since one of the fondest dreams of veteran coach Edwin Peterson was realized last year as his team won this coveted championship for the first time. Now his boys have won the cup twice in a row. a truly remarkable accomplishment. Dedhams most prolific point-getter in the indoor meets, Tom York, started DHS. on the right foot at the Garden by taking second place in the shot- put with a heave of 47 feet, 2 inches. Charles Donelan grabbed three points with a second-place effort in the 50 yard dash, and Kent Keelan fol- lowed this up with a second in the 45 yard high hurdles. As the meet built to a climax, Tom York l2ol roared to a sensational. record-breaking stint in the 300-yard dash, winning this event with a 35.5 clocking. Sophomore standout Charles Holmes showed a glimpse of his future greatness as he captured a fourth place point in the 1000. This was followed up in quick succession with Benson Swett's second place in the 600, and Ed Shea's outstanding victory in the one mile run. Ed clipped 4l 3 seconds off the old record even though he ran nine of the eleven laps with only one shoe. To round out a perfect day, the relay team of Charles Donelan, Richard Koffinke, Donald Winthrop, and Tom York turned in the fastest time in Class to finish the scoring with five additional points. As a reward for their efforts the track team spent a weekend at Bowdoin College, where they competed in the Bowdoin Interscholastics. Tom York emerged as the only point-getter as he suc- cessfully defended his New England title by wine ning the schoolboy 300.
