Merlin Stackhouse, ATO and
freshman university trackman,
was the standout of the meet as
he won the 40 with a 5.7 time, the
60 lows in 7.4, and the high jump
with a 5' 7-V leap; took second in
the 75 dash; third in the broad

a lap in his relay team which
placed second.

Confirmation of the meet next

said.
Early in the week the Weir
men got in good outdoor workouts
but were forced inside, where they
ran on the under-stadium track
and studied moving pictures of the
IC Four-A tournament, on Wed
nesday and Thursday.
While outside, despite a wet
track and a heavy wind, Gene Lit

Cream platter tosser, heaved the
discus out 149 feet this week.

Rated as one of the top track
teams on the far side of the
Sierra's, the Bears should prove
stiff competition for the Husker

Prochaska's discus antics also
outdo the Bears' Wolf in that
event.
The Bears dominate in the high
and broad jumps, possibly the 880,
two mile and the mile relay. Close
competition should evolve in the
dash, and the pole vault, while the
Huskers should take the 220, and
the shot easily. Whatever the
score the match should be close.

Easter shoppers and all smokers,
who are after smoking pleasure at

costly aromatic tobaccos from
far-off Turkey and Greece give
Chesterfield a definitely Milder,
Cooler, decidedly Better Taste.
