DEETER TRACK SUMMARY From Past to Present: For years jeff has had its individual track stars, but nothing sensational as a whole. At last, however, under the guidance of that very modest coach, Cecil S. Webb, this longed- for evenly balanced track team has arrived. Last year's squad was perhaps the best group of track athletes that the Bronchos have ever had. Only eight boys were taken to the state meet, but this squad was able to place iifth in the final standing. Dashes on the Dot: Jeff's few dash-men have the talent for knowing how to run. Bob Deeter, who by the way has made quite a name for himself, Clocks the one hundred yard dash in 10.2 seconds, which, as you know, is stepping fast. His legs work on the pendulum theory, the shorter the faster. Deeter placed fourth in the 100 yard dash in the state meet. Herby McNeil is another dash star who gets there on the dot. It seems as if Deeter and McNeil have come to fill the shoes of our longed-for Sweezy and McQueen. 5 I

The duties of this board are to supervise and boost athletics. This group and sponsors act in an advisory capacity in the regulation ofthe financial policy of the association. Each member of this group stimulates interest in the student body in regard to each approaching athletic contest. The members of this board are representative students and have that spirit that is hoped for from each student. They, together with school authorities, make rules of elegibility and supervise the enforcement of these rules. At the end of each year a committee of the board audits the books of the athletic associa- tion. The Athletic Board is a live body and has performed its duties sincerely during the school year and should be commended for its excellent rulings and judgment. Ninety-one '34

' rnrk - 15134 H. McNeil. If. Korty, D. MeCah.1n, R. Deeter RELAY TEAMS The Broncho's relay teams have been exceptionally strong during the last few years. This is especially true of the one-half mile relay. The 1933 edition placed first in all of the scheduled meets and placed second in the state meet. Deeter, Boone, McNeil and MeCahan were the members of this team. The mile relay team was composed of Mike Crowe, An- drews, Hohman, and Holm and placed fourth in the state meet. ASSORTED MILLAGE The surprise of the season came when Deeter won the broad jump in the state meet with .1 leap of 21 feet 6 inches. Several Freshmen and Sophomores began to come to the front before the close of the season. The outstanding ones being Emmet Crowe and Wee- don in the dashes, Minton in the 440 yard dash, and Vyverberg in the hurdles. We must not forget to mention Apple in the shot-put, MeCahan in the 440 yard dash, and Slaybaek in the hurdles. TRIBUTE A great deal of the success and recognition received by the 1933 track team can be attributed to Robert Deeter. In acknowledgement of his effort, skill, and sportsmanship, we, the Nautilus staff, wish to pay tribute. Yrrsrlv-rlnrrf '34
