Stuyvesant High Schools track team
won its second track trophy of the
indoor season yesterday afternoon at

The Stuyvesant boys compiled a total
of 81 points. ten more than Clinton's
total. with De La Sale Institute, third.
with Is points.
In rolling up its total Of 81 points
the Second Avenue boys scored vic
tories in three events and were placed
in every one of the ten open events,
with the exception OF the high jump.
Leo Handy, the colored flier, of De
Witt Clinton, was the only double win
per of the day, with victories in the
100 and 220 yard runs. Handy was by
far the fleetest man in the sprints, but
owing to the lack of competition his
time was not impressive. He led home
large field in the 22O by ten yards,
winning in the creditable time of
0:24 4S-5.
'c.. GENTLE Leads in Mile
Louis Gentle. the P. S. A. L. Gross
country champion, wearing the Red
and Blue of Stuyyesant High School,
ran very heady race in the mile,
heating Al Sulzbach. of Flushing, to
the tape by five yards. Gentle was
content to stay back of the field until
the bell-lap, when he passed Sulzbach,
Alan Pierce. of Poly, and Skane. Of
Bridgeport, to win by FIVE yards in
driving finish. Gentle also was placed
second in the half-mile run.
De La Sale Institute, which finished
third with fifteen points, scored an
other victory in its speciality, the one
mile relay. AS usual, De La Sale forged
TO the front at the very start of the
race. and was never headed. Clinton
furnished all the opposition, and in the
last leg Gilmore all but nipped Ed.
Swinburne. The De La Sale lad had
more speed near the finish, however,
and won by six yards.
Besides running anchor for his relay
team Swinburne also recorded the
fastest performance of the day by win
ming the quarter-mile event in Sc 40
seconds. Thompson, of Clinton, made
the very creditable jump of feet 8
inches in the running high jump, and
Bob Beattie heaved the twelve pound
shot 43 feet II inches. No other rec
ords were in danger.
