With two matches already un
der their belts the Mars Hill cin-
dermen are preparing for a second
contest with Lees-McRae. The
results of the first two contests
were not available for publication.
Coach Bob Edwards has many
prospects to compile a good track
team. Most of the fellows have
had quite a bit of experience in
high school.
The best looking men for the
mile and two mile are Pickle
Wallace Taylor, and
Charles Bullard. Letterman John
Reaves is back bringing home the
bacon for the Lions in the 440
and 880 runs. Gail Elliot is the
top sprint man this year and also
excels m the pole vault and broad
The top men for the low
and high hurdles are Earl Kirk
land and Herbie Brown. For the
high jump the right man for the
job IS Duane Best.
The track team has been ham-
^red by a muddy and wet track.
Inis and the wet weather have
made practices few and far be
tween.
