COBURN NOTES

err Hall.
Thresa Lawrie, daughter of Mr..

the Pennington State Normal school,
has been visiting at Thayer Hall
over the weekend. Mrs. Lawrie is

Much credit is due to the Coburn
track team which took part in the
University of Maine track meet last
Saturday at Orono. Many of the
boys who never have been on track
took part in the meet and showed
up well, although not winning first
places, gave the veterans of other
ing boys with a little more work
will sure win places in the coming
meets: Ross Butler in the dashes,
Solomon johnson also in the dashes,
and Mortimer Sullivan in the mile,
who fought gamely to the end on
Saturday against many veterans.
Captain Charles Major did what was
expected of him in fine fashion, win
ming first places in the high jump,
pole vault and second in running
broad jump. He broke the record
in the high jump at the University
of Maine. Others who took places
and surely were expected to do what
they did were Leslie Spaulding, long
distance; Reginald Rood, the low
hurdles, coming in first; while Shay
won fourth place in the high jump.
With a larger squad the team will
be able to do better and it is eX-
pected that many more men will
take part in the coming meets.
