Page Four Eirehruinaries, inurdries Reveal More heater iy Jim Fe}: (11/ Another Armour Relays has been completed, new records have been made, new idols have arisen to take the place of those who have fallen, and new memories are crowded into the minds of those who witnessed the tenth running of this annual affair. Although the attendance was not as well as was expected, the relays will go down in the books as one of the best, if not the best, ever staged. As is customary in big events of this nature, several happenings take place that do not reach the eyes or cars of the spectator up in the stands. The afternoon preliminaries were delayed more than twenty minutes as the coaches debated as to whether Wayne University, winner of the Ar— mour Cup last year, should be placed in the college class or be made to compete with the university boys. After much discussion, it was finally arranged and Wayne was entered with the smaller schools. Preliminaries Start at 4:25 The Relays oii'icially opened at 4225 as Rikli of North Central thund- cred down the straightaway to win the first heat in the seventy yard dash. Bingham qualified two heats later but in the following heat his teammate, Dunbar. was eliminated. In the seventy yard low hurdles, the first tough break of the meet pre— sented itself when Luby of Wayne U., having second place apparently sewed up, tripped over the next to the last hurdle and fell to the ground, eliminated from the event. In this same event Lindstrom showed the few spectators present Why he was the favorite in the hur- dles. He won both his heats, al- though he tumbled two hurdles in each, in times that were faster than those turned in by any other timber topper. Armour can take pride in the fact that it was Bingham that pushed him in both heats. Evening Opens With Classic It was a little after 7:30 that the outstanding event in the Armour Re- lays was run off. Wisconsin’s ig'rcat milor and one of America’s best, “Chuck” Fenske, paced for the first half mile by his teammate, Mehl, cov- ered the 5280 feet in 4208.9. This is not only the fastest mile “Chuck" ever ran in his life but is the fast- est indoor mile cvcr run by anyone in the midwest. This time is more amazing when one remembers that he ran the entire second half of the race with no one near him. He cov‘ cred the half in 2:04 and at that time was leading by ten yards. Open» ing up with a terrific kick, he wid- ened this gap until he finished near— ly sixty yards ahead of his teammate, Mehl. An inspection of the records will show that this is the fastest mile that has been run as yet on a clay track in this country. It is interesting to note how this mark compares with a previous effort by Fenske. Last week, he ran what was then his fastest mile when he set a new Big Ten record of 4211.1 on the same track. It is easy to see that he was pointing for a new rec- ord in the Armour meet by the way he whipped off that first half mile. Bethe! Jumps Alone 11. was in the pit of the high jump that the real drama of the meet was taking place. Tall, wiry, Charlie Bechel from Northern Illinois was all ' alone in this event. His last oppon» out had dropped out when the bar had reached six-two. Bechel had just cleared the bar and the judges were making an official measure— ment. At the request of his coach, Bechel was kept in the dark as to whether he had set a new record or not. The bar was boosted another inch and Beehel after getting a good rub. down with arnica stepped to the line and tried to clear the bar. On his first try he went over. Although his coach tried to prevent it, someone told Bechel the height, a new record, six-six. Bechel immediately tighten. ed up and was unable to clear the bar when it went up to six-seven. Had he not been told, Bechel might Still be jumping, and we might have seen a new world’s record in addi— tion to the new Relay record. It is also interesting to compare this height with that reached in the c at Tech deiays Big Ten meet last week. ln the con— ference meet, Dave Albritton leaped 1/4 inch higher than Bechel did in the relays but one must remember that Alhritton was a medal winner in the Olmpic games. Incidently this was “Chuck’s” fourth consecutive Win in this event at the Armour Relays. Padway of Wisconsin, not only broke the Armour pole vault mark but also battered his own mark made last week in the conference meet by five inches. His victory returned the Armour pole vault championship to Wisconsin who have kept it pretty consistently, last year being the first since ’34 that they didn’t hold it. Smith—Sore Leg Record The new mark set in the Univer- sity 70 yard high hurdles speaks well not only for the Armour meet but also for Englewood High School. The new co—holder of the American mark also holds the mark for the 60 yard hurdles in the public high school league. He shares this latter mark with Bowles, who was in the Relays from Beloit, and also competed for Englewaod. Incidently, ’tis said that Mr. Sam Smith set the American record while suffering with a sore leg. Wonder if he couldn’t do better with a broken leg. All in all, Armour staged a meet that more than compares with the other meets held in this section or' the country and one that will re- quire exceptional running; to better- ed again next year. The Fenske rec— ord will turn. many eyes toward the running- of that. star against Cun- ningham in the Chicago Relays next week. BEG PARDDN With reference to last week’s front page “Relay” story, Lloyd Siebert did not break the worid's record at Tech’s track carnival last year but caused the fall of the Relay record.

As soon as Ogden Field is sufficiently dry to yield good foot- ing, hostilities will commence. The present suggested plans call for an affair of two leagues, one for the upper elassmen, the other for the lower classmen. The older loop will consist of the various departments of the junior and senior classes while the junior group will comprise the sophs, fresh and co-op teams. At the conclusion of the schedule, the two top teams from each league will enter a round robin that will eventually produce the school champs. Last year’s softball tourney saw the frosh with the crack team on the field. Under the name of “Meteors,” the fresh nine won the series after suffering only one defeat. The team comprised mostly the present snph chems. to Michigan where the Armour team clashes with the nines of Ypsilanti and Michigan State. The champions of the Northern Illinois Collegiate Conference will defend their glory this year and expect to reap their honors again. The schedule of fourteen games will be extended to one of fifteen games if the proper contacts can be made. Manager Berger is hoping for a game with either Bradley Poly- tech, the college with the highly publicized basketball squad, or Au— gustana. The bottle will be waged in Ogden Field if possible, since eight of fourteen are away already. Due to limited space the batters have been unable to work out; how- ever with outdoor practice, batting and fielding experts will be given a chance to “strut” their stuff. To date, ”finds” have been made only in the battery tryouts. Bill Bauch, Jo: Moroni, and Bob Henwaldt, recruits for the catcher’s position, have shown possibilities in their regular work“ outs. An appeal for more candidates from the lower classes has been voiced by Coach Grant Stcnirer in his effort to carry 0. large squad this sea- son. A policy will be inaugurated this season by which no candidate will be cut from the squad regardless how inexperienced he may be. As a further inducement to the formation of a large squad, a schedv ula has been formed for the “B” team. These games will be played by players who do not go on the trips and will be scheduled for those dates. The assurance of participation in the actual games and sufficient equipment is expected to attract many candi- dates. “You’re known as a great Camel smoker, y Mr. Shaw.
