Show RESULTS OF IJC MEET: Albion 65 1-2 Weber 56 1-2 Snow 32 1-2 Wes trai ns te r 30 Dixie 24 Branch Aggies 14 1-2 A well balanced team from Albion, led by Bill Powers, was able to nose out Weber and retain the junior college track and field championship for the second year. From the first bark of the gun the meet was a nip and tuck contest between Weber and Albion with the lead changing at the end of practically every event. The champion was not determined until the last event was finished. Four junior college records were broken. Ray Zenger of Weber hung up a new shot record with a toss of 38 feet 10 inches. Anderson of Dixie set a new broad jump mark with a leap of 20 feet 8 inches. Bill Powers of Albion broke his own record in the discus when he heaved the platter 132 feet 8 inches. The fourth new record was mabe in the 440-yard run won by Howard of Albion who nosed out Steve Rushforth of Weber by a scant margin. Steve would have undoubtedly beaten Howard and have lowered the mark more if he had not had the misfortune of being boxed in on the first turn. The time for the 440yard run was 52:8 which is more than two seconds slower than the time recorded bv Steve at Provo the preceding Saturday. One of the most outstanding events of the day was the 880-yard relay. The Weber team of Kin-caid, Martin, Olson, and Rushforth turned in a beautiful performance to win the event in 1:35:8. The outstanding performers for Weber were Steve Rushforth, first in the 220yard dash, second in the 440yard run, and anchor man on the winning 880yard relay team; Ray Zenger, first in the shot, third in the javelin; Burnell Nelson, first in high jump and fifth in discus; Don Kincaid, tied for first in pole vault, third in low hurdles, second in 100yard dash, and member of the 880yard relay team; Russell Alley, second in discus and fourth in javelin; Vern Williams, second in his first attempt at running (graduation Gib GLASSES FITTED Packer & Stevens 2359 Washington Avenue the half mile and a member of the medley relay team. The outcome of the meet would have undoubtedly been in Weber's favor had Ray Zenger, Russell Alley, and Don Kincaid been able to equal the marks they had made in earlier track meets this season, and had Glen Ballard not been inelegible. At the close of Saturday's meet the Weber tracksters hung up their spikes for another year, having closed one of the most successful seasons Weber has had in the last decade. o SPRING FOOTBALL: Monday Coach Swenson issued suits to aspirants for next fall's football team.
