The remaining three Big Six
schools are not given a chance to
finish among the first three, but
will fight among themselves to stay
clear o fthe cellar position. Coach
Schulte foresees the possibility,
however, that these three schools
will cause trouble for the leaders
by taking away seconds and
thirds. While not boasting much
in theway of team strength, each
has one or two outstanding per
formers who rank with the best.
Real interest in the meet centers
around the largest group of in
dividual stars assembled in several
years. The efforts of champions to
retain their titles will be doubled,
for ccmpetition is faster this year
than before, and duels in several
events are expected to bring forth
some lusty record-smashing.
