White Imps Place Seconc Springtime is unmistakable . . . the outdoors beckons us with a wave of her green hand . . . there is a freshness of the air ... a frag- rance of soft, new grass . . . and the blossoming of sweatshirts on the athletically-minded track team. Coaches Wood and Peebles begin putting the boys through their paces every afternoon, and records crumble as hearts strive. Onlookers stand entranced at the precise balance and beauty of a discus thrower’s stance, or the arc of a high jumper. Not to be outstripped, the baseball team set- tles down determinedly, for warm days give a promise of rugged games and teams to come. Mittens go into moth-balls, and baseball mitts come out. Winter-stiffened muscles limber up with practice, and soon nine individuals merge into a rapid-fire unit, aimed at victory. MARVIN JONES shows fine form as he leaps from springboard at District Track Meet staged at State. SLIDE, BRANNON, SLIDE! In a close race with the ball, Bobby Brannon slides home. WELCOME SNAPPING of the tape tells Earl Evans he’s won the dash. 20
