' Track Vliith the loss of such men as Lewis, Leschinsky, Blanchard, and North- rop, Coach Lennox had a real task in molding a winning track team for Northwestern. Nevertheless, the thinclads won all the dual meets by a big margin. The results of a few meets are as follows: with Northeastern, 81 to 143 with Eastern, 62 2-3 to 521-3: with Southwestern 79 to 16: and with Central rwho gave the Colts their only defeat last yearj 72 to 23 points. The Northwestern gym was the scene of the City Indoor Meet, which the Colts captured with a total of 57 points. ln the City Outdoor Meet Northwestern scored twice as many points as its nearest competitor. Cass Tech. Among' the four record-breakers, three were from Northwestern: Capt. Carlson, who heaved the discus 119 feet 2 inches. bettering the old record by over 10 feet: Don Seeger, who jogged the half mile in 2:07 5-101 and Robinson, who made his track debut by breaking the city broad jump record formerly held by Doc Northrup, He leaped 22 feet lljff inches, taking first easily. At the Mid-VVest Meet, held at Ann Arbor, the thinclads tied for second place, although they were expected to capture first. They did very well considering' the fact that participants were entered from schools from all over the nation. To cap the climax of a most successful year the team took first place at the Michigan State Track Meet held at Lansing. The following' men have won their N's. : Boden, Captain Carlson, Cot- ney, Kilpatrick, Kinney, Lazarowsky. Marsh, McCrory, E, McMinn, XV.

In ancient days when men to fame would rise, All their achievements were engraved up high Qn pillars, monuments of stone, and aye, Their praise increased much with the passing time But we are powerless to tell in rhyme, In prose, or work of art, or even try To justly sing your praise or specify How lar you've spread your work sublime. XYhat better monument is left behind Than words by print made permanent? Norwesters, Colts, Alumni-us remind That time and patience lavishly you spent. To you to whom with gratitude we look, VVe, ot Northwestern, dedicate this book. s

McCoy, Baseball T Witli the dreary aspect of the return of only one veteran and the impos- ing schedule of Eastern, Commerce, Central, Cass, Southwestern, South- eastern, VVestern, Northern, and Northeastern, to be taken on in the order named, Coach Fraser began the uphill job of making a winning team out of an abundance of green material. With Captain Ernie McCoy as a founda- tion, he soon had one of the most feared,teams in the prep league. The season opened with a bang. At Belle Isle, jab'l Barnard, the first man to face the Eastern hurler, lifted the flrst ball pitched for a home run. This so encouraged Lawrence, our diminutive portsicler, that he buckled to his task with a will and defeated the Indians 5-l, allowing but two hits. On the Colts, home diamond Wiarner held Commerce in check while his mates slugged their way to a lO-5 victory. In a hard uphill battle with Central the Red and Gray finally triumphed. trouncing the Trailblazers 9-7. Lawrence, who started this game. was not given the usual support and was relieved by Campbell when the score stood 6-3 against him, The change On the mound proved fortunate, for the Colts stepped ahead. , Our ivictory over Cass was by a large margin. VVhile the Colts were slamming their way along, Lawrence turned the trick by again allowing only two hits and coming out at the best end of a lO-3 score. Reverses. though painful, are always present and the Colts dropped the next one to Southwestern in a hectic battle, 12-O. At present Northwestern is leading the league, having won four and lost one. VVith the help of Barnard, Bishop, Risdon, VVitter. W'ilsher, Ting- stead, Seaman, and Captain McCoy, the city teams will continue to trip over our trick trio of tossers, Lawrence, VVarner, and Campbell. D , in H AVE Psrzsoss. 117 Capt. 3 YV. Jamieson.
