lily gobbled the college end of the
menu.
The Harrisburg squad. proudly
Haunting their school colors. maroon
and gray. grabbed off a total of
So 1-5 points. The nearest opponent
turned out to be a dark horse, Wash
ington High School, who, although it
only had six men in it's lineup, man
aged to score 80 points. The next in
order came Williamsburg for third
place. just beating Peabody and
Kiski.
AS was expected. Carl Beck car
ried off the bulk of wins for Har-
risburg, with Toney Wilsback a close
second. The team was so perfectly
balanced that all hands got their
share of honor and young Carl Beck,
Garrett. Malick, Sparrow and Boyer
each won laurel crowns.
Beck and Garret finished third and
fourth respectively. in the 100-yard
dash, when the time of 10 35 was

the final. 1t was a hard race. Boy

Techs points in the field events
