I RUNNERS TANGLE ' Another mishap cost Horace Mann some points in the half- mile relay. Lew Wallace and Mann were fighting for second place behind the Roosevelt team and were elbow to elbow around the first curve on the last lap. The two runners became tan- gled and both tell to the track. 4 The Wallace runner regained his l feet and finished second but the Horace Mann runner was able to continue. However, at that time. Horace Mann could have overtaken Roosevelt in point column nor did it enough points to jeopardize second-place position. Individual first place A One never Knows. f Here we were, all because the outlook could maintain its gfional of the today. That second-place finish in th mile relay fturned the tide n the Panthers capped it wh , James Tolliver. Alex Spidle Raymond Morris and Lero Adams won as expected in t hal!-mile relay.
