The Smith team ioins in the parade before i i p the Virginian-Pilot Relays at Foreman Field. The Spectators Enjoyed Track. . . ln spite of the good work done by Lawrence Gregg, Bobby Wilder and the rest of the team, Smith did not have an outstanding track season. However, there was a noticeable improvement over last year's record. Even though we lost the opening meet with Maury of Norfolk by a few points, wins over Virginia Beach and Great Bridge soon followed. ln addition to Gregg and Wilder, other top track men were: Bill Story, Punky Richards, Jim Thompson, Crawford Walters, Bill Stevens, Ed Bur- las, and James Black. These were supported by other track men who worked very hard.

An extremely tough schedule and poor hitting added up to more losses than wins in spite of good pitching. A member of the Peninsula League, the Tigers wound up in third place. Coach Brickell is optimistic about next season due to the return of Willis Bell, Sherwood Jones, Preston Jackson, and Roddie Conner, the main- stays of this season's pitching staff. .
