TRACK Through the skillful training of Coaches Howard Crezier and Robert Roche, the North Andover High School track team turned in another winning season of 7 wins and 5 losses. The fine managing of John Powers was a contributing factor to the team’s success. This year the team adder a little more excitement to the meets by winning 3 meets in the last race, the relay. These wins may be attributed to the team’s spirit, and the hard work of each member on the team. It was also a season for school records. Gordon Otieno bettered his last year’s record of 54.0 seconds in the 440-yard run to 53.2 seconds. Bill Fournier set a new record in the shot put with a throw of 4’ 314s”, and Tom Licciardello brought his old record of 10 minutes, 55.7 seconds in the 2-mile run down to 10 minutes, 46.4 seconds. Many fresh¬ men records were also set. Other outstanding performers of the year were Capt. John Garvin (high scorer), John Thistle, Steve Legal, Steve Shea, Brian Kennedy, Skip Gregory, Bernie McDonald, Richard Alakel, John Curtin, John Garvey, Mike Jackson, and Ron Swasey. Bernie McDonald, our sprinter and broad jumper, was elected captain of next year’s team.
