 Bowen ever since his freshman year has been an outstanding con- trihutor to the U-Conn track team, His best events are In the 4A0 dash and the 880 run, However, since tho track team has been cut hard by teh enlistment into the armed Sorv. ices chances are that Bowen will have to perform Rt more than Just the above two events.
