JUNIORS WIN CLASS TRACK MEET

\
The first track event of the year
took place at the fair grounds Thurs
day afternoon, April 2Sth, when the
various classes of the Blackfoot High
School held their track meet. The
day was an ideal one for track events
and, considering the unsatisfactory
training season, lhe records made in
this meet were very satisfactory
Considerable rivalry developed be-
tween the various classes of the high
school in this meet The greatest
difficulty was in getting the Fresh
men Ito participate. although the
class contains in its members a good
many boys who, by little training,
would be able to distinguish them
selves in several of the events.
If the weather permits, training
VIII begin in earnest With meet in
view for Friday, May 18th. On this
date, field meet viii lbe held in
Blackfoot At the fair grounds be-
tween the high schools representing
Idaho Fails. Pocatello, Blackfoot
Shelley and Aberdeen. and any other
schools in the immediate vicinity of
Blackfoot who do high school work,
if they feel that they have any boys
they would like to enter.
The records made in the Blackfoot
home meet compare very favorable
Wi IN those made in the Idaho Falls
home meet. 1t is hoped that next
year We will be able to hold track
meet in Blaekfoot in which all of
Southeastern Idaho will be invited
to participate. II we are able to
hold such meets, lit will bring to
BlackfOOt in the neighborhOod of
hundred to "a hundred twenty-five
