TAPPED FEET LEAD
CENTRAL TO TITLE.
Dollar Invested in Chacos'
Pups Bears Dividends
in Track Meet.
BY BURTON HAWKINS.

Coach Hardy Pearce today
was regarded as an instru-
~ mental factor in yanking
Central to the public high school track
championship.
Louis ChacoS. an angular lad who
forged his brownish figure prominently
TO the fore in Central's conquest, has,
among other things, fiat feet Pearce
risked one buck and had those tootsies
taped by an expert, bracing the weak
spots.
Whether that taping did the trick
or whether Chacos would have been
the star of the meet regardless is
beside the point. however for Central
has snapped Techs four-year reign
and That, to its mind, is more I'M
portant.
Central emerged from its track
lethargy by scoring "a points yes
terday at Central Stadium to trim
Tech, its nearest rival by 191a points.
Behind Techs 54l2 points came
Eastern, with 81 Roosevelt, with 32l2,
and Western, with II.
Chacos Leading Scorer.
1T WAS the dark, sUarthy Chacos
who largely was responsible for
Central's triumph. He personally ac-
counted for l4'4 points through the
medium of firsts in the 100 and 22O
yard dashes, third place in the discus
and running anchor on the winning
mile relay team which surprised by
beating Roosevelt
The result of the mile relay was
placed squarely in the hands of
Chacos when Dan Hoadley handed
him the baton virtually in a dead
heat with Charley Hughes of Eastern
ard Lawrence Richardson of Roose-
Velt. Dutch Kollmyer, Roosevelt
anchor man, shot into brief lead
rounding the turn, but Chacos had
reserved some strength and passed
him in the far stretch Lou held the
lead and won by comfortable margin
as Kollmyer wilted under the terrific
pace.
Another surprise was afforded spec
tators when the diminutive, curly
haired Emanuel Servator of Central
romped home first in the 440-yard
dash, beating back determined chal-
lenges by Bob Kollmyer of Roosevelt,
jim Farquharson of Western, Cleve-
land Stauffer of Roosevelt and Wilbert
Lewis, another Rough Rider.
Blue Grabs Eight Firsts.
CENTRAL captured of the IA first
places, with Eastern taking 3,
Tech 2 and Roosevelt l. Tech amassed
the majority Of its points merely by
placing, the 5-4-3-2-1 scoring system
employed, thus minimizing first places.
Eastern's victories were recorded by
Hal Kiessling in the 120-yard high
hurdles, Wally Engelhardt in the 800
yard run and Abe Cohen in the shot
put, while Tech grabbed top honors
through the efforts of Jake Fleischman
in the discus and Jack Belote in the
shot put
Roosevelt, while finishing fourth,
definitely established itself as future
threat. Coach Lynn Woodwork has
developed crack athletes with the
proper spirit and the team today had
the consolation of knowing it had
scored more point sthan Rough Rider
teams of the past.
Truman Lancaster of Roosevelt
overhauled the favored Charley Luck
EFT Of Tech on the third lap to win
the mile run by yards in 4 minutes
and AZ seconds. Bernie jackson of
Central finished second as Luckett
faltered on the final lap. Following
