North Side's Running Redskins, guided by Rolla Chambers, have just completed another excellent season. After opening the year with an indoor victory over Eastern High of Lansing, Michigan, the Red handily took the measure of the Culver Cadet team. A number of indi- vidual honors were captured by North's track- sters at the famed Hoosier Relays held at Bloomington on March 26. Many teams fell before the Red Wave in dual meets, among these being Central, South Side, Central Catholic, Concordia, Columbia City, LaPorte, and Defiance of Ohio. However, South Sides relay strength proved too much for North during the third annual North Side Relays as the Archers edged the Redskins, 64-60. Traveling to Mishawaka, the Big Red won the team championship of the N.I.C. Trials, qualifying eight men and both relay teams for competition the next Week. Although Ron Trowbridge, who won the high hurdles, was the only individual winner, North Side swamped second-place Mishawaka, 44-31, to take team honors of the Northern Indi- ana Conference Finals held May 7 at East Chicago.

North Side was represented by many fine performers this year, and several of them proved to be outstanding over the course of the season. Milers lack Quas, Earl Pontius, Gene Evans, and Ed Evans brought much honor to their team, as did Frank Geist, Bon Bowman, Harvey Baker, and Freddy Willett, all of whom handled the halfemile chores. Leonard Snyder, North's sensational veteran 440 man, very capably represented the Big Bed during the past season, aided by Henry Chapman and Pete Lundell. Handling the dashes for the Chambersmen this year were Ron Slater, Phil Hosler, and Ed Reader. Aided by Sophomore Bill Ortlieb in the hurdle races was North's outstanding junior, Bon Trowbridge, one of the Red's leading point-getters, who could invariably be counted on to take first in the high hurdles. Senior Charley Lyons, state champion in the high jump last year, performed in superb fashion again this season, assisted by Dick Esterline and Bill Ortlieb. Lyons was also North's pole vaulter, and the broad jump was handled by George Taylor. The Bedskin relay teams, consisting of Hon Slater, Phil Hosler, George Taylor, Ed Reader, and Bon Trowbridge in the half-mile combina- tion at different times during the season, and Pete Lundell, Bon Bowman, Henry Chapman, and Len Snyder on the mile team, after a slow start finally clicked, bringing many honors to the team.
