AsT. C. Rams Cop Win In 13th Annual Carolina Relays
Sophomore Elias Gilbert, of
Wlniton-Salem, scored a 14.1
victory over Olympic champion
Lee Calhoun ol North Caro
lina College, here today (May
4} to spark the Rams to a 57
point victory in a field of 14
college track teams in the 13th
Carolina Relays. This tiine bet
tered Calhoun’s ldS6 clocking
01 14.3.
Gilbert went on alto to sweep
the low hurdles after Calhoun
withdrew because ol a recur
rent knee ailment. His winning
time was 25.3.
The Rams scored victories in
eight events to outpoint a field
that included runner-up Hamp
ton Institute, 28; host NCC, 26;
St. Augustine’s 13 and one-hall;
A&T, 8; Fayetteville, 7 and one-
half; Virginia State, 7; and
Clallin and Johnson C. Smith,
2 each. Records were broken in
the 220 yard dash, the two mile
run, and the broad jump.
L. T. Walker’s delending
champion Eagles appeared Jinx
ed from the opening event
when their highly touted frosh
mller, Carl “Little Dip” Haw
thorne, strained a leg muscle on
the filth lap and limped into ^
runer-up spot behind defending
titlist Godfrey Matthews, of the
Rams. Matthews copped the
race in 0:55.4.
Hawthorne, a former Phila
delphia high school classmate of
WUt (The Stilt) Chamberlain,
scratched the Robert L. Vann
Mile which Matthews won with
ease in 4:47.8. The NCC. miler,
an ex-Marine, who stands 6-6,
says Chamberlain was “The Big
Dip” when he stood at 6’11”
during their Overbrook High
school days. The two competed
on the school’s track team,
Hawthorne in the mile, Cham
berlain, the high Jump.
In the hurdles race, Gilbert
and Calhoun started on virtual
ly even terms and ran neck and
neck imtU the fifth hurdle when
Gilbert lunged a full .yard
ahead. Calhoun cleared the fifth
with difficulty apparentlf ag
gravated by his knee’s brush
with the hurdle.
Another double ^irinner, in
addition to Gilbert and Mat-'
thews, was Jennis Wblte of
Hampton Institute. White suc
cessfully defended two titles,
winning the 440 yard dash
handily in 48.0 and bettering his
broad Jump record ol 22.0 “with
a meet sl^ttering record of
28.10,”
NCC’s Vance Robinson, Nor
folk, Va., Ireshman, sp^ to a
21.4 record in the 220 yard
dash. The old record belonged
to Bob Seay ol A&T. It was
21.8.
The Eagles scratched the mile
relay because ol C^oun’s in
jury. He is the Eagles’ third
man in this race.
The Rams copped the R. L.
McDougald medley relay in
8:34.4. Their rimners were Ed
Robinson, Charlie Lewis, Joe
Lewis, and Ernie Clilton.

ol NCC won the discus with a

haU inches; Tucker ol Va. State

tion, I feel sure, will be keener
than it has been in a long, long
time.”
The success ol other colleges
in the 63rd Penn Relays contri
buted in large measure to the
Morgan mentor’s estimate ol
the conference championships.
As a result ol the relays.
Coach Hurt thinks that North
Carolina College, Winston-
Salem and Hampton Institute,
all ol which have been develop
ing very rapidly in the track
and field arena, can seriously
thteaten Morgan’s long-held
supremacy in conlerence tracks
Field ol More than 500
The championships will find
Morgan delending the crown it
has held lor eight years straight
against 16 other CIAA coUcgcs.
With more than 10 high schools
already entered in the meet lor
the scholastic events, a total
ol more than 500 is expected to
participate.
In the collegiate events, some
ol the nation’s top track stars
will go lor new CIAA stand
ards, with high interest center
ed in the battle between Cal
houn, the Olympic champ, and
Winston-Salem's Elias Gilbert,
who came in second behind the
great Eagle titlist in the Penn
Relays. Morgan is expected to
have an easy time in the high
Jump, with George Dennis,
executor ol a lirst place, record-
setting 6’8 and one-hall inch
leap in the Penn Relays, again
teaming up against his mate.
Bob Barksdale, who tied lor
second in the Carnival with a
6’6” perlormance.
Greatest threat to Morgan in
its specialty, the mile relay, is
expected to come Irom Winston
Salem Teachers College. The
North Carolina school won this
event in its class in the Penn
Relays, but the edge goes to
Morgan whose relay quartet
turned in a commendable per
lormance ol a 3:12.9 mile in the
Franklin Field contest, paced by
the tremendous perlormance of
anchor man Bob McMurray of
Norwalk, Conn. Morgan came
in third behind Villanova,
whose time was 3:12.7 and the
University of Texas, but Mc
Murray executed a smashing
45.9 leg.
