Jinx Follows Marks in
State Track Meets; Other
Gossip of Recent Tourney

Marks of Wabash High School is surely
the tough luck track star Of the State.
In last years high school tourney at
Franklin he twice broke the State record
In preliminary heats in the hurdles only
to fall in the final heat and not even win.
This year at Richmond he clipped one
fifth Of a second off the 300 yard low
hurdle mark set by Allison of Richmond
in 1909, both in the preliminary and
final heats, but in the final heat knocked
down the first hurdle.
The State high school track rules plain
" state that no record is allowed when
any Of the 10 hurdles are knocked down.
Last year the new mark set in the pre-
liminary heats did not go down as new
records and the same will be true this
year. Glenn F. Thistlewaite, athletic
director at Northwestern University and
referee of the high school meet this year,
stated that time made in preliminary
heats never counted as records. 1t has
been stated enormously that Marks mad
set a new record.
Two other records were wrongly said
to have been broken in an account of the
meet. The mile record is still held by
Trotter of North Salem, who went the
distance in minutes, SO Is seconds in
bettered the mark this year had he been
pressed, went the mile in minutes, ~ Id
seconds.
Mittank Of Paramount Academy still
holds the pole-vault record Of IL feet and
7% inches. The height this year was
only II feet 2 inches. 1t is interesting to
note that Miller of Anderson, the winner
this year, went II feet inches last year
to tie for first place with Sevedge OF
Princeton High School. This year he
was four inches under his last year
mark, but won the event.

average results even during the

Mr.. Babcock believes the new
highway program has fulfilled al
reasonable expectations thus far

mainly to give present taxpay-
ers benefits in fair proportion to
the taxes put in. He is conf
dent that the program to be re

ture, If adopted. will bring re-
suits TO more than Justify itself
that it will bring at once the
measure of road improvements
to which the people are entitled
now for the payments they are
making toward them.
The bonds, as stated, will tend
to reduce taxes and there will
