Most Trackmen Grbeh iM”l M"W Hayward Sturts Bottom “If r can’t make anything else out of a man I let him run tbe; mile,” Bill Hayward, veteran track coneIt vast this bit of cinder path philosophy out upon the still air of Hayward field yesterday afternoon. He was considering for the time be ing his prospects or putting out a successful freshman track team. “None of them have experience,” he protested. “I haven’t six men out who ever ran before.” Just then a new yearling candidate hes itantly approached Bill and said he’d like his name on the roll, j “What experience,” asked Bill be fore even asking the lad's name. When the prospective trackman an swered in the negative, Bill sadly turned to the writer and said: “Youj see, none of them have had exper ience. There’s Hubert Allen over there, and Gilbert French, and Scliroeder and Whisnant. They have j more or less experience. The rest of the boys are willing but I’m having to start at the bottom with most of them.” Bill has only one consolation in his tribulations. The first meefyj doesn’t come for more than three weeks yet. That's the Frosh-O. S. (,'. relays here, May 2. With a little luck in discovering virgin talent among his freshmen, Bill may find the makings of a team yet. lie usually does. r~—i i Blues- I i ‘ !
