5.-G-5, -t., 5 x....., w, Q .TRACK ' '55's Track Team has finished a season, un- defeated, the first in the history of the school. Thirty-eight fellows, full of pep and determined to break every record in sight, reported to Coach Brown at the beginning of the season. Danville set her pace ay defeating Antioch, Livermore, and John Swett High School, consecutive ly, and climaxed these victories by winning a five-way meet held at Martinez and participated in by: Antioch, Alhambra, Brentwood, Concord, and John Swett High Schools. On April 22 a team of picked boys went up to Davis to compete in the California Aggic's in- vitational Track and Field Meet. In 1952 the boys had won the meet, much to their surprise, and they were determined to repeat the victory, if it was humanly possible. When the dust had settled on the track that afternoon, Danville had accum- ulated 42 points, her nearest competitors were Riverdale and Alhambra tied at a 20 point score. We carried home two silver loving cups as a re- sult of the day's victory, one for the Relay, won by Dondero, Frick and Arven and Arlen Scott, and one for the meet. Besides these cups the boys came home with fourteen medals for placing in the various events. One of the most interesting feats of the A day was Eldred Ramos' jump of 12 feet for a new record in the pole vault, Danville new holds six records for the Davis meet. Mr. Frick, father of Bch and Walter, very kindly let our principal, Mr. Bisig, use his movie camera to take pictures of the meet, and the results were very interesting. Mr. Bisig caught practically all the interesting finishess of the day, including an aeroplane view of the sky and ground. lt seems the camera started to run suddenly, and he couldn't seem to find the button to turn it off. We leave these pictures to the school for future classes to sec, hoping that they will be spurred on by them. ,
