WRIGHT TAKES
5 FIRSTS IN
TRACK TRIUMPH
BY GEORGE w. GADDY, III

Wright is one OF the finest and
hardest working boys with whom
have had the pleasure OF work.
ing" Track Coach David L. Holmes
director OF athletics and coach OF
Wayne university's track team paid
this tribute TO Lorenzo Wright.
speedy freshman trackster, last
Saturday.
COACH HOLM MES continued,
When he hrst reported for track
in February he did not impress me
as an outstanding prospect. How
ever he never ceased TO work hard
TO improve his performance at all
times. Wright was always in tip
top condition, and going all out
TO win"
Lorenzo really outdid himself in
Saturdays dual meet with the Chi
cago Maroons He won Ave hrst
places and anchored the winning
relay team while finishing third In
the seventh event he entered 10
set three meet records. He led
Wayne 10 a convincing "a to ~
win over Chicago.
He entered more events than any
one previously, won more hrsts
than any past athlete, and his total
OF 26h points was by far the
largest ever amassed by single
competitor in the Maroon-Tartar
meets. to round out his record
smashing afternoon.
He won first places in the 100
and 900 yard dashes. the 100 yard
high hurdles, 220 yard lows. and
the broad jump. His third place
finish in the high jump was a sore
spot with Coach Holmes.
When Wright went over to the
high jump pit for his final jumps
al4 other contestants had missed
out. the last two missing the bar
at feet 4 inches. He requested
thai the bar be raised to 5 feet
8 inches After three unsuccessful
tries at this height, he had to be
content with third place.
Coach Holmes is sure that Wright
could have topped Ave feet six
inches, or Ave feet Ave inches.
and deserved a first place or at
least tie for frst place in the
event.
Wayne thus closed out Its dual
meet season in grand style. and
gave fitting farewell to one OF
its greatest athletes. Wright leaves
school this week to enter the armed
forces.
