NEW RECORDS OUT SHINE MEDIOCRE TRACK SEASON Although this year's squad did not measure up to the excellent standards set by past track teams of this school, they still managed to turn in an im- pressive 5-3 record, suffering narrow losses to three Conference rivals. Not- able team strength and effort were displayed in romps over Plainfield and Rahway. A first place tie in the Mor- ris Hills Relays, in which the shuttle hurdles squad registered a first place finish, highlighted the season. Although the team produced only a fourth place finish in the Watchung Conference Meet, Scott Hurley was a triple winner, breaking his own pole vault record by clearing l3'3 and was consequently named the most valuable athlete in the competition. Hurley, who was consistently over 13 feet, took firsts at an Englewood meet and in the Union County Meet, while finishing fourth in the Easterns. Another outstanding senior per- former was Baxter Brooks who broke the school record in the 880 yard run, Super Spirit flies again! Jim Nowak. by clocking a fine 1159.2 against Westfield.

GIRLS' TRACK AND FIELD SEASON ENDS WITH IMPRESSIVE RECORD Track and Field is a sport which signifies work and self-discipline. Al- though the girls often play as a team, it is an individual sport that requires exhausting work and dedication. The pressure of competing with yourself as well as with other teams makes track and field a demanding sport. Under the coaching of Miss Kesting, the girls finished with improved skills and an impressive record. Archery, another spring sport, de- velops concentration and accuracy. For the bowman it is an impelling and satisfying sport. When Archery was first introduced at S.P.F.H.S. it made an impressive start but this year's team was not as fortunate as the previous year. Due to bad weather and lack of equipment, it was possible for only a few practices to be held. Last one to the locker room is a rotten egg!
