MINCDR SPQRTS PAT DOLAN MINOR SPORTS COACH Minor sports are assuming an ever greater position in the sports curriculum of Montana State. Lack of facilities, lengthy schedules, and lack of student interest have limited the further development of these sports. We feel sure that minor sports will progress as tar as these limiting factors will allow. In the annual sports meet which was held in Missoula, the Bobcats were second-best scoring 49M points as the University took the meet with 61Vz points. This phase of Montana State's intercollegiate competition has received little ot the mention that it deserves. Too much credit cannot be given to these boys who wholeheartedly supported Montana State. The minor sports program is handled by Pat Dolan and Harry Ellis. Earl Geyer was student manager, being in charge of the intramural program, which he handled efficiently. MANAGER EARL GEYER 168

In the 155 lb. class W'irak, Bobcat wrestler, was held to a draw by his Grizzly opponent, while gi thef 155 lb. class Allen of the College lost to the University heavyweight y a a . BOXING In the boxing division the Bobcats and the Grizzlies fought to a dead heat by the score ot 6 to 6. The team of Lillis, Shinn, Schwartz, and I-Iolloway were unable to continue the new victory policy started last year by the Bobcat boxing team. In the 126 lb. class Lillis, Frosh member oi the team lost a decision in his first intercollegiate start. Shirley Shinn, continued his fine record of last year by winning an easy decision in his match. Schwartz also repeated last year's victory by taking the state 165 lb. crown from the University for another season. In the heavyweight class Bill Holloway also ran a good race with the University's prize slugger but lost the decision by a small margin. SWIMMING By Winning the deciding relays, which ordinarily do not count as team points, the University took a very close and hard fought victory in the swimming meet by a score of 43 to 33. Iohn Van Winkle, one of the Frosh stars of the swimming team, set a new state record ini the l00f yard back stroke as he paddled himself to a well earned victory, in the time oi l:l6.4. The only other first place was taken by Frisbee, who maintained the freshman standard set by Van Winkle as he won the diving event. Roberts, a member of last year's team, was second in two events. Other individuals placing were Bruce and Hurdle, with a second and third in the breaststroke. 170
