Buckhannon March 6 One of the most important announcements is that May 2 at Clarksburg will bring a triangular track meet between West Virginia University Marietta College and West Virginia Wesleyan. For three years there was an annual West Virginia inter collegiate track and field meet. The meet was started by Wesleyan in 1902 and held locally the following year at Clarksburg and again in 1944. Dissension among the organization delayed revival. no move to revive the old annual meet is now evident. Instead a meet featuring West Virginia and Wesleyan is arranged with Marietta likely to send a strong team.
