Dear Editor: In the SCHOLASTIC last Spring under a caption of "Tracksters to end dismal season tomorrow" I wrote a story which depicted the Notre Dame track team as a dying group destined to end its season in a pathetic manner.

Titles Roll In as Trackmen End Cinder Season in Glory The Irish tracksters who have the longest and most difficult season of any group at Notre Dame, amassed a spec­ tacular array of honors after the clos^ ing of school last summer. First, they captured the Indiana State Track crown from a determined Hoosier group at Bloomington. The spikesters of Purdue also made the battle and the final vic­ tory more impressive. The local cinder kickers scored the la\'gest number of points ever recorded in achieving their victory. A week later, the squad coached by "Doc" Handy traveled to Indianapolis without special advance preparation and blazed their way to the Indiana A.A.U. track title, again rolling up the highest total of points in the record. Participa­ tion in this contest was not scheduled, and the final decision to compete came at such a late date, that several events had to be delayed so the Irish runners fOf^ could engage. ^f>%T Sept. 24. 1948 23 Charity Covereth a Multitude of Woes; Ticket Sales Break N.D., Army, Miciiigan Join Against Pros All Former Records The shattering noises coming fiom Charity accomplished this fall what tember 2, to see another Irish foe join Breen-Philips Hall are not evidence of many an eager promoter tried to do last with former wearers of the green.
