Sports forecasters announce that Weber college appears to have the best balanced team and some of the best individual performers In the circuit, but grant B. A. C. at least one sure bet in Harvard Hinton, who won first In the high jump in 1940 and fourth in the shotput. Two other prospects who they concede may develop for the B. A. C. are Gam Woodall in the middle distances dis-tances and Jack Urie In the 440. While the present track outlook is none too bright for the local school, it is expected that much improvement im-provement ill be made as the season sea-son advances. Due to the cold stormy weather, very little has been accomplished ac-complished in the way of training, but n6w that spring seems to be definitely de-finitely opening up, it is expected that Linford will push his men to make up for lost time. Those who will accompany "Tuff" on the trip anil who will participate in the track event are as follows: Junior Trimble, Mario Busslo, Harvard Har-vard Hinton, Ralph Henderson, Frank Henderson, Elmo Isom, Garn Woodall, Mayo Rich, and Jack Urle. A team of three will be selected from the following six tennis players play-ers to represent the school at Provo on Saturday: Paul Christensen, Forrest For-rest Parry, Grant Seegmiller, Bryant Bry-ant Leigh, Melvln Lyman, and Clair Richards. These boys, who are being coached by Vern Cooley, are competing com-peting with the crack tennis stars of the Dixie junior college in St. George today and undoubtedly the outcome of today's matches will determine de-termine which three will be taken to the carnival at the B.
