Wichita High Wins Class A Title at Memorial Stadium
Wichita High School won the Class A team title at the twenty sixth annual Kansas interscholastic track meet, scoring 33 points to outpace rivals despite muddy conditions. Ford Rural’s Coffman led Class B with 11 points, while Halstead claimed the Class B crown with 24 points. Captain Kurt Reisen of Lawrence contributed in shot put and other events. Shackled by weather, two meet records were broken: Coffman cleared 12 feet 4 1/8 inches in the pole vault and Swisher of Junction City tied the 100 yard dash record at 10 seconds flat.
