Track Struggles Through I always felt we had a good chance, anything can happen in a meet. This attitude of Elreen Brumfield and her fellow track team members was instrumental in getting the team through a season of troubles and negatives. A small team was just one of the many problems faced by the track team. With only twenty-five members on J.V. and Varsity combined, the team had to work hard to make up for its size. Because of this, the team members had to participate in more events. This made it dif- ficult for the athletes to improve on their major event. Inexperience was another prob- lem. Starting with an almost new team, the athletes had to practice harder to better their skills. With only three returning let- termen, we lacked the experience we needed to face some of these teams, stated Coach Davis. Individually the team had a number of outstanding athletes. Andy wood, with a 49.9 400 meters ' time, was the team ' s top runner. Elreen Bumfield proved to be one of strongest girls, collec- ting medals for the 330 low hurdles at the Hemet Invita- tional. Jerium Briscoe also stood out in the 330 low hurdles. Another outstanding player was freshman Ernest Clark with a 20 ft. jump. - After running the 330 low hurdles against Arl- ington, Darren Briscoe crosses the finish line. Arl- ington won the meet 68 to 39. 12 sports

Girls, Boys As One As the sun broke through the early morning clouds, varsity girl and boy swimmers struggled to make their 5:45 a.m. practices. As a first year experiment, Coach Anderson was in charge of both teams. He commented, If I had to go back to coaching only one, there would be something missing. It was a great experi- ence! Swimmers shared their practice time, competitions, and especially their fun times. They practiced twice a day and swam in inte- grated lanes. John VanDen- burgh stated, It was really great to have both girls and boys in the same lanes because you ' d always want to look good for the opposite sex. Two practices a day paid off for both teams. Varsity girls and boys finished third in the Ivy League. In CIF competition freshman Monica Decker placed eighth in the 100 yard breast- stroke and senior Stuart Reid finished fourth in the 50 yard freestyle. The boys ' 400 free relay consisted of Reid, Pat Leary, Dan Milligan and Paul Murashige. They placed ninth overall. To sum it up, Pat Leary com- mented, It really helped to have both teams together. We all had great times even if we had to work hard. I thought it was a fantastic idea. After an opponent ' s false start, Stuart Reid returns to the blocks. On the second attempt Reid finished first in the 50 yard freestyle. In CIF Reid set a new league record of 21.98. Bundled up for winter? No, Chris Woodburne tries to keep warm at the Ramona Meet. Though cold temperatures kept spectators away. North ' s spirit remained high.
