'Q 5 Competing for numero uno hough diminutive in height and weight, Dale Brown is one of ten on the Junior National Men's Gymnas- tic Team. He is also third in the nation for Boy's I3 and 14. When I was eight, 1 just liked to do somersaults and stuff. So I took lessons from Dad's Club for about a year and then I went to Finch's Academy, he said. TESTING HIS FORM, Daleibrown performs a backlever on still rings at Finch's Gymnastic Academy. Photo by Kathy Epps. Dale practices six to seven days a week, 5:30 to 8:30 at Finch's Academy. I like doing floor exercises and paral- lel bars best, said Dale. Dale also par- ticipates in vaulting, parallel bars, hori- zontal bars and rings. Invitational meets have taken Dale to Mexico, Pennsylvania and Colo- rado. In December, I'm going to Squaw Valley, Califomia to be in a camp for Junior National Men's, said Dale. They picked me out of a whole bunch of people. Dale added that Jap- anese gymnasts will be training the young gymnasts. To qualify for National's, You have to qualify for State and then you go to Regionals, Dale explained. Dale won the state meet in 1974, 1975, and 1977. During the 1976 State meet Dale injured himself. I was doing a stunt on the parallel bars dur- ing the meet and I smashed my foot. said Dale. Dale hopes to participate in the 1984 Olympics and possibly the 1980 Olym- pics. The Olympics that Dale enters, depends on how long it takes me to mature or develop, said Dale. Considering his future in gymnastics, Dale said he will keep on in gymnastics until he gets tired of it or accomplishes his goal. You can't tum pro, so about the only thing you can do is coach, said Dale. - 30 - - Catherine Chris: lkenefick-lewisl Freshmen 127
