TRACK-1952 Northern Division meet hopes took a severe blow for the Vandals when Bruce Sweeney came down with the measles. The energetic Sweeney had been counted on for the hurdles, the broad jump, and the high jump. A consistent scorer in all these events, he was definitely missed, as indicated by Idaho's meager scoring total. As is the usual case in Northern Division track, the Wash ington State Cougars copped the division title. Dave Martindale hit the headlines for the Vandals in the Pacific Coast Conference meet at Los Angeles. The Idaho pole vaulter topped 14 feet 2 Y2 inches to cop the event. His effort ranked him second in the nation among collegiate performers and eighth nationally among all vaulters. Hiserman's lineup throughout the season found many younger athletes in competition, thus providing them with experience for the campaigns ahead. With graduation losses not too heavy, Hiserman's cindermen ought to find some plush Saturday afternoons awaiting them in the future.
