Littler “fins Bosh The evening activities started with the dashes in which the crowd was; keyed to a high pitch with the possibility of a new rec. ord by the red headed speedstcr of Nebraska, Gene Littler. Al» though garnering a first he was above his old time of 207.1. Wilson Junior’s Lewis Taylor, a member of the Winning junior college sprint medley team, led a large field all the way to cop the college division dash event. immediately after Littlor‘s let- down performance in the clash the crowd was brought to its feet as Chicago's two milc relay team almost nosed out Kansas State in this distance. Kansas state led by a large margin until thcanchor man, Ray Randall of Chicago. started his leg. He steadily cloacd the gap and finished about two loci. behind the fast tiring Kan- sas State man, Frank Durham. Timon Flats litecomli Not to be given a moments root the crowd watched brcathicsciy as Tiltien‘s Blue and Gold thin- clads punched out a now marl: in in the half mile relay. This; loam of Stanley Gay, Earl Prince, Frank Montgomery, and Alfred Grochwalskc set a new record with a time of 1235.4 to top Auc- tin’o 1938 time of 1235.7. Littler became the cvcolngg’s lirct double Winner as he walkcti oil with the 440 by a large margin. Shortly after Gene’s rccortl another double winner was crown. ed as Sommerfield of Michigan Normal took both ends of lilo hurdles in the college divieloa Bob Kahler, of Nebraska, pulled a surprise in the university divi- sion hurdles as he beat out Joc Finch and Charles Horvaib, of Northwestern in the lows. in the highs the mediated winners came through and here Finch and Hor- vath placed first and secoml, res— pectively. In the lows on new ar- rangement was used for the sec end time in an official meet. This sct up has six flights of hurdles with three steps between instead of the conventional arrangement of three flights of hurdles. with six steps between. Kahlcr equalled the existing American indoor rec ord of 207.9. Unknown Ties For Firm The pole vault, as usual, lum- ished many thrills and above all many upsets. Ed Thistletl’lwaite, the Tech Relay’s record holder at 1.311%" dropped out at thirteen feet six inches to gain a tie for first. His co-holdcr of first place was Bob Kincheloe, a cocky little lad from Chicago who had. never gone over thirteen feet in his life till last Saturday night. Bill Williams, the Big Ten’s champion was oil form because of a sore ankle, as he dropped out at thirteen feet for a third in the stick riders’ event. The crowd streamed out of the stands at the end of the last relay to watch Thistlethwaite and Kin- cheloe go for their last tries at the thirteen six mark and sighed with disappointment as both boys miss- ed. So, ended a thrilling evening that saw two records broken and a new one set. lilinois Tech Team Boilers ’40 Efiori By Don Kciglier Another Tech Relays goes into the pages of sport history. Anoth- er group of outstanding college and univeroity track men have matched strides and strength in the climaxing collegiate meet of the indoor season. Among these many athletes wore a few of our own lllinois Tech lieetd’ooted com- pctitors. Competitor’s Dream From that bitterly fought col. logo two-mile relay in the after noon to the suspended final tr *‘ of Bobbie Kinchcloc in the pole vault the meet woo a competitor’s dream or should we say, night.) more. Every event had so many good men that it was truly a tour- nament of champions. Wc Techawks didn’t quite live up to genial John Sciiommcr’s builclups. He threatened Bob Os~ home and myself in the alter noon by saying that every brilliant 'l‘cchawk must be in the finals at night. Gsbomc took him aeriouc ly but this: ocribe wasn’t in it after thosc two blistering boats; in tho hurdles. Dick Barry deserved the title “Lucky Boy” for the moans he had of getting into the cami— finals: oi the low hurdles. fipviot lllctlioy Outsourcing: The various relays events were all one could male for; not a mull ocrc one in the lot. The stretch drive of Ray Randall, Chicago acc runner really roused the crowd in tthc two mile relay.

When he swung in lo second piece on the first turn we knew he would get a place. Belorc tho race Bob was so her, muss, manager Earl Huebner thought lac might have to carry him to the starting blocks. This ncwoucacse only made Bob faster because he ran that quarter in 252.2 which is only a second slow or than the school record. Who :~: ya li’l“ does not have at least one good trackman, despite the fact that the red—headed Nebras- kac, Littler, romped through a quarter mile in :493? Polo Vault Sparkles The pole vault was again a suckling event on the program. “(hen brush—headed Bobbie Kinsh- ioe made that terrific jump every fellow on our team was as happy as if “Kine.” was our own team mate. Johnnie Elwood narrowly escaped injury when the jinx of all vaulters occurred. Johnnie’s vaulting pole broke as he attempt- ctl to clear 11’6". It was a great meet and a real specatcle. The only thing lacking were some gorgeous beauty queens. From the viewpoint of our own team. We think. the lm~ proved showing of our Techawks in this year’s Relays only points to a much better squad for next year. If you don’t think we’re an improved group loop up the 1940 Relay’s showing. We were really bad then. l M w...“ m s): limo. mommama. Stall Photo by Anderson llol) Osborne vaatc ill“?

NWABLEEEEVEAL MANNERHSMS T0 TECH REPORTER By Morgan it‘ll/ch .‘lr. Gone Littler was on the rub- down table when acked for a pic— lure of himself running. Ho said he would be glad to pose and reached down to the floor for his shoes. Up come the shoes, a small pair of cowboy boots. When asked if they would fit, he replied, “They ought to, I have been wearing them since I was seven years old.” So, with the cowboy boota the Ru lays had the western touch. lllmiw Mao Brooks lilo); On the tragic side, Hui Nugent of Drake broke his left leg in the pole vault event. Ila could not get straightened out. coming down and the left leg got twisted under him. Hal is a graduate of Salon high and is now a junior at Drake. Neill-calla lilac Rootcro The men from Nebraska had a small but noisy delegation in the stands. The group consisted of boys from Nebraska in the navy. They were on liberty from Great Lakes Training station and “Un— clc John” fichommer gave them passes. One of the boys) gave a good explanation why the Kan- sas State men won the two mile relay. He said the Kano-ac boyc go out and race jack rabbita every morning. Maybe there is some— thing to it. Ray Randall oi” the ‘Univeraity of Chicago pulled tho thriller of the evening. The former Bowen high lad, closed a five yard gap in the two mile relay and almost won the event. John Schommer, ‘King of the Rolayc’ added to his list of expe- riences Saturday night. lie also kept the otficiala poatcd as to the best stories of the year. The im~ possible is to find John Without. an appropriate story for any oc- casion. Sonny Weiooman turned pro- phet Saturday night. The funny thing is that he picked the uni- versity mile right, but missed the time by several seconds. He was: probably in cahoots with Ginn of Nebraska, the winner. Polo Riders Roach 13’3" When Bob Kincheloe of Chicago went over the pole vault at 13’3”, the explosion after that was in. dcocribablc. For the sake of the field house calling it was almost a good thing that he did not, clear 13’6". Bob is about five feet nine with short cropped black hair. He is a sophomore at U. of (1., majoring in industrial relations. Private school, Oak Park, and U. high pole vault records are held by him. Kincheloe also hold many hurdle records, too. His) tie for first place with Ed Thistlethwaite made him the happiest man in the world. Bibli Hard Worker Mr. Sam Bibb should be given the award of the hardest working judge. Why? Well, he watched the pole vault event all evening. There were no cups in the uni- versity division. Three cups were offered to the colleges. The first place trophy was about two feet high with an athlete on top with an olive wreath upraised. The trophy was all silver plated. The second and third place awards were about the same only smaller. ‘ ‘The Thirteenth Relays were one of the most successful events ever run,” says Alexander Schrciher. All those who saw the events will back up that statement.
