week our boys took one first, two seconds
and third in the finals on Saturday

Langdon people can be proud of. In
the mile run Bert Sullivan came in
second and was conceded a safe winner
of first place had he started his fina
squirt sooner, as he showed quite
reserve of speed on the home stretch
The pole vault found Sullivan in fourth
place in close finish at 8 feet | inch,
which by the way just touches the
record made by Joe Halloran, Langdon

meet. John Mcknight got a first in the
hammer throw, distance LOG feet 3 inches
and second in the shot put, distance
80 feet, 3 inches. 1t had also been pur-
posed to have Mac" enter the two
