Iumjrrrs: Graves, Bogart, Davidson Oftentimes teams go through seasons-and they may be successful ones- without capping them with any climaxes, but any one who discusses the past year of track activities at Lincoln High School has a very definite climax toward which to direct his writing-namely the Relay Team. Last year's team on the basis of its record gives great encouragement to those who are on this season's team. Furthermore, added encouragement is given by the fact that two of last season's stars, David Wilson and Robert Gibbons, are on the team again. This year the track team opens its season with the Brooklyn Knights of Columbus Meet in which the relay team will compete in the one mile relay event. The team will be picked from Robert Gibbons, Dave Wilson, Jimmie Degnan, Larry Field, Johnny Lee, and Bill Lynch. After that, in order, come the Millrose A. A. Meet, the New York A. C. Meet, the Dickinson Meet, and the New Jersey State Championship Meet. Also, the Blue and White squad will defend the National Interscholastic Championship which was won by Lincoln athletes in 1931. Coach Mitchell, judging from the teams you have developed in the past, we know that this year's team will be that constant fighting, ever alert, and always victorious team that has thrilled thousands of fans in the Eastern part of our country. 137

We wish you the best of luck in your new undertaking. It will be a difheult task to keep the high standing your predecessor has attained, since you are handicapped by the loss of such per- formers as Rutigliano, Wolff, Thompson, DeLucas, and Cimo. Nevertheless, what we know of your gymnastic ability and your good work in the Olympics in California is enough to convince us that you will do all in your power to turn out a team that will be equally as good as any team former Coach Spoerl has produced. In the past two year's Lincoln gym team has suffered one defeat in twelve starts. Last season the team won the Metropolitan A. A. U. International Championships which was held in the Lincoln gymnasium. Some of the rivals the team will meet this season are: Morris High, Textile High, Newark East Side. Newark West Side, Newark Central, Newark South Side, Emerson High, Union Hill, West New York, Dickinson, Rutherford, Temple University Freshmen, and Springfield College Freshmen. 139
