VIII Finish Today

as if the seniors will capture the meet.
The development of the state tourna-
ment prospects steadily shows i'm
provement and there should be between
five and 10 candidates for the state Sc
ries, May 9-13. Pole vaulting was tried
for the first time this year. Conner.
senior, made 8 feet 6 inches.
The time in the 1OO-yard dash is
good at 1O.4, Gonser's first place for
the day. but this may be cut a little
for in~terscholastic competition. Con
ser took first in the 5O-yard dash Tues
day at 5.04, the same time he made
when he took first place at Missoula
last spring. He has been running at
this time regularly and may be able
to touch off a tenth of a second be-
fore the end of the season.
Townsend Is Surprise
The javelin at 135 feet shows room
for marked Improvement the state
thought that Shaw will be able to do
much better with more training. He
has thrown the dart 145 feet at one
time this season. Ario came close TO
topping the winning mark with 1881
feet and Townsend hurled the ~javelin
for 133. y. a mark which completely
surprised all spectators since Town
send has not been training for the jave-
lin. With the proper training, Town
send is expected to make a record for
Great Falls in the next few years. He
is a sophomore.
Eifty-nine seconds was the time on
the 440-yard race and Jimmy Cockrill
is showing good form in the run. He
has a good stride and keeps an even
pace. This is his second year on the
field. Cockrill is also a candidate for
the hurdles.
Livers in High Jump
Carlos Livers is still making ; feet .
inches on the high jump and shows
signs of steady development in form.
He has almost cinched a chance for
entry in the Garden City meet and is
working hard to make a higher record

5 feet Sh inches.
