Downtown-- West Side of Square
anchored the mile and 440-yard
relay teams, both of which let new
meet records
In the high school class, Ailing
ton Heights outdid the national
high school record in the two-mile
relay by touring the eight laps
in 7:52.K However, the perform
arice will not be recognized as a
national mark because the high
schoolers were running with the
colleges as there was no two-mile
event scheduled for the schoolboys
To be accepted as a national record
a performance has to be made in
competition with four other high
schools.
Highland Park grabbed the high
school division honors with 100 I
point- Arlington Height was sei
ond with 66 11 30.
Curt Newbury of Highland Park
was a atrorig contender for the out
standing performer award. He
anchored the Scot ties' record
breaking 440 and XHli yard relay
teams and turned in a 9.8 to win
the high school 100-yard dash. A
second vote of the sportswriters
was necessary to break a tie be-
tween him and ACC's Richardaon
for the meet's biggest individual
trophy.
The college division distance
medley offered North Texas its
greatest challenge since the Cin
rinnati basketball game. In addi
tion to Arc holding the nation's
beat time 10:00.2 in this event,
the rare furnished direct competi
tion between four of the state's
best distance men the Kagles'
Menchaca and Cooper, and JaneM
Kdwaids and Thomas O'Neal of
ACC.
And the Kagles came through on
both counts.
Menchaca took the baton from
Spencer some ten yards behind
Edwards to begin the three-quarter
mile leg of the race and continued
to trail the ACC star until the
final turn. Then the agile San
Antonian's kick proved to be more
than Edwards could match, and
Mi nchaca handed Cooper the ba-
ton and a five yard lead to begin
| the final mile.
But O'Neal soon made up the
! deficit and ran shoulder-to-shoulder
with Cooper for three and a half
: laps. Cooper made his kick at the
back stretch and cruised on around
the final turn and down the
| straight away well ahead of O'Neal
1 to give the Kagles' a time of
j it:59,8.
ACC's time was 10:00.2, which
equalled its earlier mark.
It was the Howard Payne team
that, pushed the Kagle distance men
into the country's number-one spot
in the two mile relay. Menchaca
and Cooper were again Coach
Noah's big boys in the eight-lap
baton carrying event.
Menchaca, after taking the baton
from Cooper at a stand-still, ran
some ten yard- behind lll'C's Da-
vid Noble until the back stretch
of the final half mile. His kick was
good enough, however, and he
sailed across the tape after a I
half to give the Kagles a time of
7 31.0, which, in addition to be-
ing the nation's fastest time in
that race this year, became the
l>est time in which a Texas team
has ever turned the two miles.
Jim Blassirigamc led off the
event, turning in an unofficial
I :53,H on the initial half. John
Spencer ran a 1:51.9 and Cooper a
1:51,5 on the inside halves of the
race.
Kissing the relays queen was by-
no means the top performance
turned in by Team Captain David
Clark during the course of the
afternoon. The Grand Prairie sta.
cleared the bar at I I feet V* inch
to establish a new relays record in
the pole vault. The old standard
of 13 10 had stood since 1056.
Lanky Tom Grissom made a good
showing in the high hurdles, stay-
ing neck and neck with ACC's
great Calvin Cooley until the final
barricade, where he appeared to
miss his timing. Cooley captured
the event with a time of 14.7.

l> VVII) ( L \RK didn't match his
top pole vault performance of the
year in the North Texas relays
Saturday, but his 14-foot Mi-inch
effort was good enough to surpass
the previous meet superlative that
had stood since 1950.
And Clark also scored points in
the javelin throw.
Coach Pop Noah entered the 6-
foot 2-inch Grand Prairie athlete
In the spear toss, and Clark re-
sponded with a heave of 144-4%,
! which was good enough for third
| place in a pretty weak event that
aw the winner (Tech's Delbert
Shirley) miss the relay javelin
record by more than fifty feet.
! The record, set by Kagle Denny
\ndrewN in 1958, is 202-2Mi. Shir-
j ley won the Saturday competition
with 145-10%.

Til K OLDEST RK< OBI) to fall
| Saturday was the school mark in
| the distance medley relay. This
1 standard was set in 1938 by Al-
\in Christ man, Henry Morgan.
Blaine Hideout, and Wayne Bide-
out.
It took 22 years, but Saturday
a new band of Kagle cinderlads -
Leonard Chance, John Spencer,
Kirhard Menchaca, and John Coop-
er turned in a time of 9:59.3 to
better the previous best by a tenth
of a second. This performance was
well below the relay record of 10:
20 4 which was set by ACC in 1958.
* * *
IN THK TWO-MILK relay the
Kagles broke another record which
had been set by the Abilene Chris-
tians during their golden era of
track. The record established by
ACC in 1950 was a 7:45.1.

COACH NO\ll will agree that
it is easy to secure some track
stars from the high school ranks,
and a matter of hard bargaining
to recruit others.
Some men, such as Sterling
(Hud) Morgan, Menchaca. and
Cooper are being sought by al-
most every major college in the
country and, consequently, are a
little more difficult to convince
that they should come to North
Texas.
Sometimes, though, it is not hard
at all.
Coach Noah tells us that one day
he was driving through the coun-
try and Haw a small town boy
tossing a football. This wouldn't
have been out of the ordinary if
the lad hadn't been sending the ball
for rides of 05 and 70 yards.
Noah, even after learning from
Denny Andrews that he had never
even attempted to throw a javelin,
signed him up on the spot.
