Frosh HurdlerTo Enter P.A.Meet at Calaaatfi#MClimaxing one of the most successful freshman track seasons in ten years, Don Reiss and Joe Mar-dcsich, Papoose hurdlers, will enter the annual Pacific Association track meet tomorrow afternoon at Berkeley,Bob Waters, ace sprinter, who was originally scheduled to enter, is a doubtful starter with a bad leg, while Bill Joslyn, greatly improved discus thrower, is definitely out of the meet. Joslyn has been too busy with football practice to get sufficient practice with the platter.MILERS UNDEFEATED rWinning five and losing one meet, the Jeffrey men wound up a sue- 4 cessfui season by j^iellacking California, 72 to 59, becoming the first Stanford squad in eight years to turn the trick.Most consistent of the Papoose cinder men have been milers Waters and Bob Compton, both undefeated. Both spent three quarters working on track and were in good condition for the first meet against Modesto J.C.. which Stanford won, 81 to 50. Frequent rains kept other team members from top condition.SMITH. JOSLYN IMPROVEDWaters won the 100 in 9.8. and repeated this fast time twice in other meets. Compton won the mile in 3:35.1, another fast time.Great improvement has been shown by nigh jumper Willard Smith. He progressed from a 5-foot 8-inch jump for second place against Modesto to a winning leap of G feet against the Bears.REISS NEARS RECORDDon Reiss came back to turn in consistently excellent times. His mark of 14.8 against Sacramento was just two-tenths of a second off Sammy Klopstock’s school record.Not to be overlooked are the men who barely missed their letter after good performances all season. Among those in this category are Wes Baylor in the javelin, Bob Bonner and Alan Rosenfeld in the 880, Howard Wright in the high jump, and Kenny Taix in the sprints. Injuries kept the latter two from the California meet, which alone de-teramines an award.
