Dave Cole, director of intramural athletics, stated that there were 102 applicants registered for the track meet. But barely two-thirds that number turned out. In evfery event, names were scratched right and left, especially from the pole vault, quarter mile sprint, half mile, and mile runs. Neglected Athletes Two athletes in particular were sadly neglected by their own living groups. Larry Howard, pre-med student who can scarcely afford to throw time out the window, con­ centrated all 10 of Sigma Phi Ep­ silon’s points by winning two events. No other Sig Ep as much as gave a helping hand. Larry’s a bet­ ter swimmer than runner. He swam for Menlo (Calif.) Junior college, specializing in the backstroke. Odd combination, swimmer and sprint­ er, but it’s easy to se how he can toss the cannonball. Mike Fleming^ who pulled his Sigma Nu up as much as could be expected, also took two firsts. Yet there were only two of his brothers out for intramural track. Mike ran a crackling half mile Friday after­ noon,- and came back to take the mile the next morning. Except for about a month of training, he has been away from the cinders since he shadowed Kittell in the 1946 In­ vitational trackmeet. Several of the boys were on Harry’s varsity squad last year. Warren Kobelin was a broad jump­ er and sprints contender last year, but dropped out of track. He and his Phi Delt brother, Jim Coming, make a good pair . . . both faster than a crash crew. Bob Hagenston was out last year, too. Tall and loose-jointed, this Phi Delt high jumper was noticeably out of shape. Last year, he’d jump 5 feet 10 inches as a matter of course, though the SAE triumvir­ ate of Yovetich, Rocheleau, and Andrus, discouraged his hurdling promises. Then, of . course, there’s “ Ambi­ tious” A1 Widenhofer, Sigma Chi’s hope in the distances. A1 was out
