As Is The Practice . . . on most track teams, the same men that run the hundred yard dash, also run the two hundred twenty yard dash. Therefore, all the things that were said about the one hundred yard dash apply to the two-twenty yard dash also. The quarter mile run was very nicely handled by Cy McCahan. This veteran football and basketball center was in his Hrst year on the squad, but he ran like he had run all his life. McCahan was first in four out of the six meets the team entered. being defeated one meet by Wfilliams of Lebanon, who was the state champion high school quarter miler. Points were picked up also by XVild Bill I-lohman, Kenneth Andrews, and Bob Pierson in this run. At the state meet Cy McCahan won his heat as did Williams of Lebanon, but Wfilliams' time was faster than that of Cy , so Wfilliams was adjudged the state champion quarter miler. A The Half Mile. . . and mile runs were presided over by that old campaigner, Gilbert Goldsberry. These two events are ones in which Jeff is usually very strong. This last year was no exception. In five out of six meets the team entered, Gil got first place in the mile run, and his record for the half mile was almost as good. This record was made against some of the best competition in the state. Gil', was leading his heat in the second lap of the state meet, when one of the spikes on his shoe pushed thin, causing him to drop out. Everybody was pulling for him to end his career with a victory. Points were picked up in these events by Earl Haley and jesse Hicks. Chink Callison was the whole show for jeff in the hurdles, assisted by johnny Sines. johnny was the general handy man, for he also pole vaulted and put the shot. The high jump was taken care of by Ed Elliot and Brig Young. The mile and half mile relay teams were among the best in the state. Although the combinations changed, those boys that saw the most action were Deeter, Armstrong, McNeil, Callison, Hohman, Goldsberry, and McCahan. 1 S I

For The Last . . . two years every school morning at 7:20 the Band could be found in the old gym, ready to burst forth with music. Perhaps the early hour was a big factor in the Band's successg no lazy or disinterested person would arouse himself so early for something he did not enjoy. Twenty-four members of the Band competed individually and in ensembles at the State contest at LaPorte, May 5 and 6. Graduation will deplete the Band, but such has always been the case, and the succeeding outht has always outdone its predecessor. As the organization started as a grade school-high school band it gave opportunity for some to be in the band more than four years. Two present members have this distinction: Orea jackson and Gordon Bryant having completed their eighth 1 consecutive year in the Band in june. Not only the members, but also the admirers of the Band, deeply regret that this is the last year that the baton will be wielded by Mr. Skidmore. At the conclusion of this year Mr. Skidmore will take up duties at Dan- ville, lnd. Q . ,. X X H ' ' Due To 'lhe bize . .. J. l.
