The third Wisconsin record breaker, Milt Pad- way, soared to a new record in the pole vault by clearing the bar at 13 feet 9% inches, bettering the 01d Armour mark of 13 feet 8% “101185 set by Sicbert of North Central in last year’s track carnival. The former mark of 6 feet 5 in the high jump established by Nel- son of Butler in 1932 was raised one inch when Charles Bechel cleared the bar at 6 feet 6. The University of Illinois sprint medley relay team with McGowan starting in a 440. Orlovich and Downs running a 220 each, and finishing with Gaines in an 880, lowered the 1937 Illinois record of 53:43.3 in the Relays by covering the distance in 3221.9. Binghnm First Armour Winner Armour fans found opportunity to cheer when Bingham stepped out in the 70 yard dash and defeated Rikli of North Central in :07.3. This is the first individual track event that Armour has ever won in its own Relays. Covington, an Armour freshman, gave his team its other first in the college division by running the 440 in 153.6 to win over Elmhurst’s Nott- rott. Elwood enabled Armour to get 3 1/3 points by virtue of his 12 foot mark in the pole vault, tying for first with Anderson of Milwau- ken State Teachers and White of North Central. North Central Dominates North Central completely domi- nated the college division of the meet by winning the college sprint medley relay and the college 70 yard low hurdles, tying for first in the one mile relay, and scoring place points in six other events. North Central’s winner, Lindstrom, in the 70 yard high hurdles ran the event two tenths of a second slower than the Armour record. but was able to break the tape before Anderson and Miller of Michigan State Normal. The one mile relay was a close race. Coo, leading on the first lap, saw North Central forge into the lead on the third 440 through Rikli‘s running, while Volta, anchor man of Wayne, brought his team up to chal- lenge North Central’s lead, and then finished in a dead heat, Wayne and North Central tying. North Central’s other first was in the sprint medley relay in 3236.9. Armour opened strong with McDon- ald far in the lead, but was unable to keep up the pace. finishing behind Milwaukee State Teachers and Michi» gan State Normal. Carleton Wins Two Mile Carleton’s time of 8:08 in the col- lege two mile relay came close to tying the Armour record of 8:07.!) set by Illinois State Normal in 1934. Carleton got all early lead and was able to maintain a comfortable mar- gin all the way. North Central came in for second place points followed by Michigan State Normal and Illinois State Normal in third and fourth places, respectively. Davenport of Chicago came within one-tenth of a second of equaling the Armour record of :07.1 in the university '70 yard dash. Fagler of Kansas State placed second with Lehman of the University of Illinois third and Fox of Kansas in fourth. In the university 440 Harcrow of the Midway ran a fast quarter mile in 21,1. Risley of Northwestern finished in second place ahead of Norris of Wisconsin and Keitel of Northwestern. Smith Scores Double Sam Smith of Wisconsin proved to Swimmers dose Final Meet 53-53 In the last meet of the season, the Armour swimming team was defeat— ed by the Kcnosha Youth Founda- tion, 51—13, at Kenosha Friday. This was the second defeat at the hands of the K.Y.F., the former score be— ing 45yz-18% February 18 at Bartlett. Armour succeeded in getting only one first and a second place to count for most of the points. In the 220 yard free style captain Dodge came through with a win in 2238.0 to count for five points. Thcn Winblad stepped out to take a second in the 100 yard back stroke, The remaining points came about as the result of third place winners. A new pool record was set in the 100 yard breast stroke when New- ard flashed by Svagdis in 1:08A. In the final event the Tech med- ley team chased their opponents to another new pool record in 1:07 flat. This was the only meet of the year that the Armour team failed to make an improved showing over their previous showing with the same squad. Divoteers Air Plans; New Net Men Sought Golf Manager Jim Sheehan last Friday announced that entries are now being accepted for the annual spring golf tournament. This marks the second tournament of the year, the other being held last fall and won by Bob Marshall. Those that are interested in tak— ing part in this event will be urged to see either couch Bihb or Shechan. The play will take place on a Satur— day early in April, the definite date not having been determined as yet. Meanwhile the regular golf squad is making preparations for the for- mal opening of the practice by ap- plying use to the driving range erected in the gym. In the near fu- ture, the squad will take to the Soutlimoor Country Club and set down to real work. Due to the new method of position selection, Ar- mour's chances of emerging with a triumphant season are good. This year, instead of the men being placed by seniority, they will be arranged by low scores. This should result in a team far more capable to face the eight match schedule than might otherwise have been produced. Meanwhile action is about to start in the tennis section of the activity map. The team initiates practice this afternoon in the Armory. Manager Sclllux, in seeking new material, has asked all candidates to be sure and equip themselves until the team is chosen. Practice will be held every Tuesday and Thursday from now on and everyone interested is requested to report. be the master of the low hurdles as well as the high hurdles by winning in the 70 yard low hurdles in 207.7 or one«tenth of a second slower than the Relay record. Brombaugh of Chicago was runnervup, finishing ahead of Hotchkiss of Kansas State in third and Robinson of Michigan State in fourth. The university two mile relay, which was won by Kan~ sas State, was run in the slow time of 8:04.l. Northwestern finished second and Kansas third. The only other entry, Wisconsin, dropped out at the half-way mark. The four Chicago high school teams which qualified in the city high school meet in the afternoon ran in the only high school event of the evening, the half mile relay. Austin came through for first place in 1235.7. Steinmetz ran second fol- lowed by Lakeview and Crane. Illinois Takes 341’; Points Although there was no team trophy given in the university class, Illinois placed first among the seven contesting universities with 341/2 points, and Wisconsin pulled up in second place with 31% points. No one man dominated the meet in the college division, but iLindstrom of North Central by virtue of his first in the 70 yard low hurdles and his second in the 70 yard high hur- dles was able to take high scoring- honors with a total of eight points in the college events. ARMOUR TECH NEWS «TL—LIE“ WERE m (EDITOR’S NOTE: This column is being conducted by ART JENS, former sports editor and originator of Tech Shorts back in 1929.) A Carnival Becomes A Champion Armour’s Relay Carnival became of age last Saturday amidst a fan— fare of sensational performances and is now definitely established as the leading track and field carnival of the middle west. The standout ath~ lete was Wisconsin’s Charles Fenske who in his aparent effortless manner sunk Brocksmith’s long standing mile record by more than 5 seconds. There of course were others. Pad- way, Mehl, Smith, Davenport, Frary, Ilalcrow, Meis, Bechcl and many others contributed performances that made this anniversary meet the best 'of the Relays and suggests what may be expected in the 11th running in 1939. II. a it Getting back to Fenske. We were standing next to Tom Jones, Wis- consin coach, as hill stai- miler was pounding the Chicago track for the record that is perhaps the twelfth faintest mile ever run. Coach Jones expressed himself all being fearful that a 62.3 third quarter would ex~ tend his runner so that a 62 final quarter would have been impossible. Still the Badger star held his excel- lently judged pace and with a final burst of speed crossed the finish line with a 62.1 fourth quarter and n time: of 11:08.9. Fenolm’n performance last Saturday it is our belief that under similar conditions Fenslse could have cut his time at least three seconds. Remem- ber the Dartmouth race was in the nature of a match race for Hell Won- soni, Dnrtmouth’o crack miler, was given al 600 yard handicap so that he might pull Glenn out after the three-quarters point had been reach- ed. It is doubtful whether Cunning- ham's fine mark will receive other than a noteworthy performance classification lint Charles Becllel Winn ngh .lump for Fourth Straight Your Where Was the Bond? One thing; we missed at this meet was the band that has been as much a part of the Relays as any of the track or field events. How thrilling it would have been to have heard the band in tempo with the runningr feet of Fenske! Ii" ’1‘ III Bochcl of Northern Illinois Teach- er’s after clearing six six made The Firm! Turn in the University Sprint Medley Relay valiant try in attempting to raise the high jump mark to six feet seven Wall Cunningham, New Fenslce It has been written many times that when Glenn Cunningham final- ly hangs up his spikes another lad, Archie San Ron-uni, from Kansas will replace him as the stand-out miler. May we amend this to read that Cunningham will not be re- placed by a fellow Kausnn but by a Wisconsin Badger named Fennke. He has made his mark now watch him go. Comparing the 4:04.41 mile run by Cunningham Dartmouth and Wrestlers Third E in Midwest Meet While Armour was stealing a third place among the entries, Wheaton‘s first annual invitational wrestling tournament was won by the sponsors of the tourney, Wheaten. Armour’s representatives made their presence felt but were not. able to come out on top in the finals in any of the weight divisions. The en- gineers placed four men in third places in their weight division and Tullgren in the finals for a total of 13 points. McDaniel at 118 pounds continued his season’s good work by advancing to the semi—finals and then downing his opponent in the consolation match for a third place rating. Till met the same success in the 126 pound divi- sion and gave Armour another third place in the tourney. Captain Dunne, who had not been defeated throughout the season, came out from underneath in the semi- finals of the 135 pound class. He also went on to win third place by a victory in the consolation. 'l‘ullgren proved to be the lone Ar- mour man to reach the finals, but bowed to his opponent thereby scor- ing l'unneI"~up points in his weight class. McIntyre came out with another third place rating for the Armour- ites, leading them to their total of 13 points and a third place as a team in the tourney. all; inches. On his three tries he came within a breath of clearing the bar each time. The former mark of six five set by Butler’s Nelson has stood on the books since 1932. Rachel is the only man to win four champion- ships in the same event in the his- tory of the Relays. Detroit's Tol- mich did Illlg‘hty well in his years of competition, however; he doubled in the dashes and the hurdles to win more Armour medals than any other man in the past ten years. Equal» American Record After the record mile run it did not seem that anything could hap- pen that would equal the suspense of Fenske’s run, yet it was another Badger, Sam Smith, who scaled the high sticks in the remarkable time of :08.(I to equal the American rec- ord. The next thing we shall look for in the Armour Relays will be a world mark perhaps in a running event since the Chicago track is one of the fastest in the United States. Illinois First Had points been awarded in the University section as in the College we believe the teams would have fin- ished in this order: Illinois, Wiscon- sin, Chicago, Kansas State, Kansas University and Northwestern. The point separation between the first two teams was less than two. *- =1= >7 Armour’s Alex Bingham was en- tirely deserving of the fine send-off he was given by Ted Canty after he had won the college 70 in the very excellent time of :07.3. Norm Root has served notice that this lad will be heard from in future meets and that the present Armour 100 yard and 220 yard outdoor records are in jeopardy. It's about time these records were broken. Seems to no that the 100 yard mark was estab— Iished in 1909, was tied three times, once by your correspondent in 1931 and should be replaced by some fig- seioua urc in the nines. l Bigger and Bigger In closing we again, with pardon- able pride, must say that the Al‘~ mour Tech Relay games are the middle west’s outstanding track car» nival. We have only to point to the class of Saturday’s field to prove this contention. The results speak for themselves. When five records can be broken in a meet where the marks are pegged as high as the Armour standards then the only word that comes to mind is CLASS. The suc~ cess. of any meet lies in the work of the offlcials. The men .lohn Schommer called upon to assist him did an excellent job and bundled many difficult problems to the satis— faction of all concerned. We know they were impartial; we know they were eminently fair. We now come to that place where we must bid adieu but only for the space of a year. Then there will be held the Eleventh Armour Relays which, if the past is to be any guide, will surpass anything we have seen before. To the Armour Relays—to Armour Institute every hope for a successful future. Art Jens. COMPLETE SUMMARIES SPECIAL ONE MILE RUN—Won by Chuck 4 “nuke. Wisconsin: McIII.

Out of twelve meets scheduled the Techmen won five and lost seven. Opening- the season with a slow start, the team developed into :1 nice- ly rounded squad. The only excep- tion was the lack of divers, the team‘s weakest event. In the opener of a tough sched— ule Wright administered a 57-18 de— feat. The team then went through a period of improvement while losing a close meet to Loyola but winning the next two from South Side and North Central. At DeIJauw, one of the two sched— uled traveling meets, swimming in— telcolleg‘iatc distances the local 11a- tators showed up well although los- ing 59-25. On the return meet at Bartlett pool Armour made a great comeback showing while losing 43—32 in one of the closest meets of the year. The two meets with Kcnosha spelled defeat for Aromur. The holl— are for the closest meets wont to North and South Side. At Naper- villo, it was a matter of the relay winning the meet, 34~32, while at Wilson the medley left Armour a one point advantage of II. 38—37 store. The meet with Loyola a week ago showed a little of the improvement the team went through. Armoufs opponents amassed 504.5 points during the season as compared to the chhawks 356.5. Catain Dodge lead his teammates in individual scoring by winning,I with consistency the 230 free style event, and usually placing in the 100 free style. These points added up to 86.7. Behind Dodge came Vic Svog- dis, who by winning the [00 yard breaststroke and doing his bit on the medley team had a total of 56.4. Bob Winblad, newly elected cap- tain, who swam backstroke and was one-fourth of the relay was right on Svagdis’ heels with 54 points. Fourth place honors went to Pettes, a fresh- man who won the remnants of div— ing honors for Armour and sprinted the shorter distances. Although not cstablishingiuny rec- ords, the Armour lads turned in some fast times. Winblad’s time of 1214.8 at the Loyola meet was his season's best for the 100 yard back stroke. Anderson sprinted the 40 yards free style in :19.5 which was about the season’s best, Armour or opponent. Also the medley team of Winblad, Svagdis, and Anderson turned in a fast 1:09 for the 120 yards. Next season’s hopes should look bright as there will be no gaps made in the Almoul squad by the June kills. llrun ll- linolla. thirll‘, flat huwny Nort hnwollt om . "Imc. .
