A new system of scor- ing and a new management of events were worked out. The Golden Bears had a very successful season. The mainstays of the team were Paul Patten. Walt Lawrence, 'l'alc Seelye. Charlie Clark. Jim McCor- mick. Jack Dunham, Bill Keough and Alan King. Walt Lawrence was the favorite half- miler. while Herb Grant and Jack Leonard carried mile ll0l10l'S. Talc Seelye starred in the high jump. and Paul Patten captured the pole vault. The relay team of Dunham. Koough. and King. by their performance, proved that they will be hard to beat in the future. Charles Clark made a good showing in the low hurdles. Tony Stiles and Lauris lrobinson managed the shot putting ' FIRST ROXV tleft to rightl: Swartz, Hntlmwaiy. WVonuu-k. llarlc. Collins.

Stiles, Wrestling WVrcstling in Canton High is not so far advanced as it should be. ln the years to come. however, the school will participate in many more dual meets. From these meets. the men will gather experience, cour- age. and self-satisfaction in their work. The men who did come out showed much enthusiasm for the sport. The slowness in forming a team may be attributed to the lack ot equipment and place to work out. In the future, there will be no cause for this slowness. because the formation and practice will be ready early in the season. Bill Schwartz, Acting Coach.
