WIENK’S VICTORY URGES FELLOW TRACKMEN Setting many new school records was the main goal of the track meets last spring. Thirty par- ticipating in track made it more convenient for them to attend such relays as Redfield Relays, Madison Invitational, Pierre Relays, Dakota Relays, East Central Conference track meet and Regional track meet at Brookings and State track meet at Mitchell. During the latter, Arnold Vlenk earned a first in the State B mile run. To return for the next season will be eight letter- men and encouraging prospects for a victorious homecoming from each of the relays. Suspense-filled minutes seem long as each ner- vously wait for their turn to show their ability. Relaxation after a few times around the track gives them strength to do it again. 22
