The team practiced faithfully, under the direction of Coaches Thomas Tuthill and Charles Coleman, and went into the Orange County Interscholastic Track Meet with 12 members. Most of the members were never in a meet before, but this fact did not make much difference. Our boys went on the track and represented this small village against the larger cities of Orange County, landing in second place with 38 points to their credit, among them being four firsts, one second, six thirds and three fourths. Fred Tie-man placed this school on the point table by securing fourth place in the mile run. Next came Harry Lewis, with third in the 100-yard dash, and then we added two more when Osborne finished third in the 220-yard dash. In the 880-yard run Harold Houston captured fourth place, while Roosa and Osborne finished third and fourth in the 220 low hurdles. Then we had the sixty-yard dash under our wing, Harry Lewis being the victor, but owing to the fact that two contestants, neither of whom secured a place, had a head start, the race had to be run over again. Being all out of breath, Lewis managed to get only third. Goshen High came through in the relay race with third place. Later came William Welsh, our premier athlete, who began his record breaking by raising the shot put record from 43 feet to 43 feet, 2 inches. This record was not allowed to stand as Welsh had used the official shot, which was under weight. Next our young athlete captured the discus throw, setting a new record of 137 feet, 9 inches, and later the hammer throw. Welsh also won the high jump, setting a new record of 5 feet, 10 inches. In this event Van Duzer Wallace captured third place. The points of the meet were distributed as follows: Middletown High School-------------------57 Goshen High School-----------------------38 Port Jervis High School------------------37
