thorities of the state, sectional track
and field tournaments, similar to the
recent district basketball tournaments
will precede the state track and field
meet at Franklin, May 20
Success of the recent sectional

gestion that similar elimina-

In case the authorities should vote
to hold sectional tournaments, the
first, second and third men in each
event at the various "centers" would
be eligible to participate in the final
meet at Franklin. Sectional meets
would allow a far larger number of
athletes to compete and would pro-
duce more interest among high school
athletes of the state
