The Class A squad, though limited in numbers, put forth some very good talent, Bert Merrill being the chief hope. Bert ran the half-mile very creditably. The other members of the squad made a showing in spite of their lack of experience. Class C track showed more improvement than any other team. A great many first year men give promise of becoming stars in their later years in high school. Among these are: Raymond Rogers, Vladimir Micanovich, and James lVIcLean. In Class B track, new entry for T. H. S., Parke Montague proved to be an adept at heaving the ten-pound shot. Parke qualified for the Southern California Preliminaries by placing in the Marine League Class B finals. ' MARINE LEAGUE EINALS Torrance High had the honor of being hosts to the Marine League in the finals, Classes A and C. There were approximately 3,500 people who witnessed the meet, which was run off in great style by Coach Nylander. Eight schools competed. Riis High School won the meet, with Jordan a close second. The Standard Oil provided the amplification and loud speaking system, which helped the meet to run off smoothly. It was the most orderly, systematic, and best planned meet ever held by the Marine League, and Coach Nylander deserves all the credit it is possible to give him for his excellent leadership. l73l
