PACING HIMELF out along the grueling mile is veteran performer Billy Wood who has captured many a paying place in Typhoon encounters. DETERMINED to heave the shot put a respectable dis- tance, Jimmy Hahn star weightman for the Typhoon cindermen, practices his form. RUNNERS Billy Foster and Billy McLaughlin whose stal- wart performances in the grueling 440 have been note- worthy, put forth with a last minute effort. STRETCHING THEIR legs over the low hurdles are the hurdling Dick Avery and Bernie Shields who have con- tinued to cross the finish line together. Sonny Cowling is in third place. TOP TRACKSTERS carrying the colors for the harriers this season were Dick Avery and Clifton Penny, co-cap- tains who carried on the tradition of the gold and blue by leading their team to the state championship for the eleventh time.
