Although with outstanding hurdlers Mike Piotroski and Bob Prawdzik, and tremen- dous sprinters Larry Stepenski and Rich Tomek, the Mustangs tailed to turn in a winning season due to the great amount ot competition in the league. New Trier, Oak Park, and Evanston all finished ahead of Morton and were ranked among the tirst five in the state. Ot the three qualitiers sent downstate, Mike Piotrowski came up with the only creditable performance placing tourth in the low hurdles. Prospects tor next year are said to be good with a new held house and strong sophomore talent graduating to varsity standing. N X fssswac wMQN..,,hm K . A iv S ' S ., - -XX 'S ,QS- N Rl Q63- . .A A-.

If this is an indication as to future varsity strength, Morton will have a formidable track team. BOYS M CLUB . . . The Boys M Club is open to all ath- letes who have earned a major letter in any one of the many sports which Morton has to offer. The club carried on many activities this year, one of which was selling a football yearbook containing the names, positions, and some in- formation about each senior on the football team. Another new proiect was selling foam rubber cushion pillows at the basketball games. Members of the M Club sponsored this year's valentine dance, Magic Moments. Highlighting the affair was the crowning of a queen, Lois Hanzel, selected by the members from a bevy of beautiful candidates. Other events planned and sponsored by the M Club are M assemblies at which all athletic awards are pre- sented and an annual play- night open to all classes. They also are responsible for selling programs at basketball games, the proceeds of which go to finance the club's other activi- ties during the year. Art Simi was the President this year,
