Those' are the two headline attractions who will make track history at Brigham Joung University's mammoth Invitational - Meet this weekend. As special event stars at this year's huge outdoor sports carnival', Johnson and Truex will be out to better some meet records. They may, incidentally, lure a record crowd to Saturday's events. The meet, which officially opens Thursday with some tennis compe tition, will climax Saturday with a total of 80 events in the high school and junior college divisions. The list of past performers in the special events includes the names of Lloyd LaBeach, Herb McKinley, Ron Morris, Art Barnard, Craig Dixon and others who held world records and won gold medals in Olympic competition.

TAYLOR McKEOWN Editor, Popular Boating (Distributed by NEA Service) If you own a boat, chances are you are already planning ahead for pleasure trips by water this summer. Long trips, too. In a recent survey of boating developments, we discovered more than half of last year's active boatmen took cruising trips of over 100 miles-- . ' . Figures show that 43 per cent made, voyages of 100 to 500 miles in their boats, 15 per cent went miles at least once, 11 per cent went offshore outside the three-mil- e limit, and the remainder made journeys of less "than 100 miles. You're certainly not alone if you are planning your first long, ad venture by water, or are looking forward to new harbors and cruising, areas to visit. over 500 .get started? Other boatmen can recommerd How do you interesting ports of call. . Newspapers, magazines .and books will tell where others have gone .by boat. A letter to your state chamber of commerce will bring you suggestions of state paries are where camping facilities available along a waterway. Many gasoline concerns now offer excellent free harbor guides; write to their home offic? and see if your area is covered. Do not, however, rely on informal .maps such as these for accurate navigation. This time of year boating' families should be buying the official government charts which have been newly corrected tr show changes in channels and marker buoys, plus any other navigation problems which may have arisen recently.' Rivers and tidal waters particularly are changing course, and the wise boatman will spend 75 cents tp $1.50 each for inexpensive charts of areas he will visit. The family that has cruised before is familiar with the fun of studying charts. Here you can find small coves you might have missed from offshore, examine depths of safe water along your route, and make careful note of any rocks, sandbars, or obstructions that might cause trouble.
