31 THOR if SUMMARY CDF 1935 TRACK SEASCN me Last spring some sixty boys reported for track practice, with three lettermen returning. Be- cause of the bad weather that prevailed, track work was started in the gymnasium. In the first competition of the season, which was a dual meet with Bradford on April 16, Galva did not show up so well and were beaten by ten points. The second meet was at Toulon, April 26. Here Galva showed up to better advantage, losing by only three points. The relay was not run or the local squad might have bettered their own score. The third track meet, which was scheduled for May 3, was post- poned. The schools entered were Orion, Cambridge, Geneseo, VVeth- ersfield, and Galva. THE COUNTY MEET By far the most important meet on the lVIaize and Blue schedule was the Henry County Interscholastic Competition held last year at Cam- bridge, lVIay 10. Galva High marked up a total of five Hrsts, two seconds, and two thirds. Firsts were won by John Galloway in both high and low hurdles, by Harold Binge in the half mile, by Earl Copeland in the pole vault, and by Eldon Hoxworth in the javelin. ' Hoxworth placed second in both the shot and broad jump, Clyde Lind placed third in the high ump and John Nordstrom third in the discus. Hoxworth was high-point man among the Galva entrants with eleven points, while Galloway was second with ten marks. Victor VVhite scored for the Galva grades by placing first in the pole vault. Track and field totals were as fol- lows: Galva 33, Geneseo 31, VVethersfield 26, Cambridge 13, Orion 12, Alpha 11. On the day following the county meet Galloway, Hoxworth, and Binge entered the district meet but only Galloway placed. He scored nine points, winning first in low hurdles and second in high hurdles. Those men who competed for the last time for Galva in these meets were: John Galloway, John Nordstrom, lllarshall C o wl e y , Clyde Lind, Earl Copeland, Eldon Hoxworth, David Anderson, Dale Halsall. 1936 SCHEDULE April 25-Relays at Bradford. lllay 1--YFreshmen-Sophomores at Cambridge. lNIay 8--County meet here. llfay 9-State District meet at lVIoline. lNIay 15-At Geneseo.
