the more noted of the entrants was Joe Desincco, more commonly known as The Toluca Flash , and joint holder of the world's high school rec- ord for the one hundred yard dash. The trip over terribly ,muddy roads occupied four hours, at the end of which the athletes were in anything but perfect condition for a strenuous afternoon's competition. In this meet Trivoli secured only two places, Chester Anderson winning second place in the standing broad jump and third in the fifty yard dash. However, considering the class of competition, Trivoli made a very creditable showing, many of the noted high schools in the state failing to place in the various events. The meet was won by Toluca with a total of 21 points. Little Five Track Meet On May 19, five track teams assembled at Elmwood to participate in the annual track and field meet. The teams entered, were Trivoli, Elmwood, Farmington, Yates City and Brimfield. Elmwood as was expected, won the meet wth a total of 69 points while Trivoli placed second with 55 points. The boys' unusual showing was a surpriseito everyone as very little was expected from them in the light of previous showings. We were handicapped by not having a track on which to practice but perseverence and hard work received its reward in the form of numerous prizes. A large group of students accompanied the team and cheered loyally for their favorites. The events in which Tri- voli athletes placed were as follows: 440 Yard Run .................... , .........

- -------- -are ----------- Winners of the T The highest award that any school can give her athletes is the prvilege of wearing the school letter. To earn this privilege is the aim of every athlete. Trivoli athletes who have been thus honored are: Track, 1923 Lloyd Goodman Leslie Kelly Russell VVhite Chester Anderson Basket Ball, 1924 Lloyd Goodman Capt. Chester Anderson Donald Bourne Marshall McCullough Edgar Flinn Ira Phillips Charles Hovenden Theodore Opie Bradley Track and Field Meet On May 5, the track team participated in the annual meet at Peo- ria. Seventy teams represented by over Hve hundred athletes partic- ipated in the events. It was popularly considered the largest meet of its kind in Illinois. Although all the Trivoli entries tried their best, none of them were able to place in their events. We might offer many excuses but the truth of the matter is that Trivoli was for once, com- pletely outclassed. This year, with another year's experience to our credit we hope to redeem ourselves. Peoria County Track and Field Meet 1923 Encouraged by the success gained in the Little Five meet the team now composed of Leslie Kelly, Russell White, John Williams, Chester Anderson, Ira Phillips, Lloyd Goodman and Theodore Opie, journeyed to Princeville to compete in the annual county meet. The usual group of fans accompanied the team and were pleased to see the interesting events run off with machine like precision. It was an ideal day and the track being in perfect condition, several records were shattered. Trivoli emerged into the class of record holders when Anderson leaped ten feet one inch in the standing broad jump, to tie the record which has been held by Tidd of Elmwood since 1910. Those of our boys who placed in the various events were: 880 Yard Run ..,,...................,...... Ira Phillips ............. ...... Fourth 100 Yard Dash ....... ....,....
