Our high hopes rest upon four or five key men. Among these are Johnny Ed- wards, who set the City-County pole vault record at l3 feet, Jim Spiggle, also a speedy sprinter, Paul Forth, who ran a 4:37 mile and tied for first place in the City-Coun- ty meet last year, and Jimmy Nolan, who did well in his sophomore year at Fishburn Mili- tary Academy. g Ot course we are looking for much assist- ance from many other hardworking thinclads from all four grades here at Patrick Henry. Furthermore, we expect many of the bigger boys to participate both in the shot put and discus throwing, an important part of any track team. 9 i L... i- 2 .4 in - H? ii- - Q ij-gil? -A We , ' ' Y V M V K H in A ngife in ii if it M ' H iss' E255 l ,,.- ii' ii ll liiiiibfe' il, ii y,il',Q,i il ll M i .-fi, rim i ,W .if v ii ii ii ii' gfgiiyif we 1 1 T eirggiiggg i i H ' mfs i , As, W i l is D XR .. .

B. Snow, Dave Price, Bill Mangus, and Ru- ben Terry. Of course, these will receive sup- port from the new recruits. Pitching is the most outstanding asset of this year's team. Veterans Andy Good and David Brammer, along with Dave Price and Eddie Scruggs take care of the mound chores. Likewise, in the batting department we have many sluggers contending for top honors. This year's coach is Leonard Mosser. In the fall he coached freshmen football and this winter, junior varsity basketball, both of which had successful seasons.
