Given little chance at the first of the season to make much headway, the 1939 track and field team proceeded to step out and win the Mid-East conference meet held at Beatrice. Prior to that meet, Fairbury had defeated Superior and Wilber in dual meets and finished four points behind first place Beatrice in the Fairbury invitational. Main point winners were Nielsen, Butterbaugh, Patton, Johnson and Yoachim. The 880 relay team of Nielsen, Long, Wiles, and Johnson placed lirst in the Mid-East meet and brought back a beautiful trophy for their efforts. Those who had earned the necessary eight points, and over, for a letter up to the time the annual went to press were Nielsen, Butterbaugh, Patton, Johnson, Yoachim, Wiles, Long, and Ellsworth. Others assured of lettering were Shipman, Remple and Mc-Kenzie. 1939 Track and Field Results Fairbury ...,...............,,,.....,,,,,....,.. ,,..,...,.. ,.,..,,, 6 5 ig Superior .... ................ ......., 5 6 M, Fairbury .... .......,. 6 9 VVilber ..... ....,,.............., ..,,.,,.. 5 3 Fairbury Invitational Beatrice ....................., ,........ 5 2 Fairbury ...., i..,,.... 4 8 Wymore .... ......... 3 4 Diller ..... ............... ......... 3 0 Mid-East Fairbury .... ,........ 4 0 Jackson ...... l........ 3 3 Beatrice .... ........ 2 45 York ......... ........ 2 35 Hastings ,... ......... 2 0 Crete .... ......... 1 3 I:Page Forty-fivej
