bowled over 500 for the winning
SPE’s, while Bretherick was the
only man on the Delta Chi team to
hit the mark.

Have you ever heard of a high speed track meet, featuring 1400
entrees, being .j-un off in the actual running time of one hour and 4j»
minutes? Well, it happened, and all through the efforts of former
Penn State track and field coach, Lieut. Charles (Chick) Werner.
Chick, although taking full responsibility for the adfui*. give?
credit to. military regimentation of the participating cadets at the
Chapel Hill, N. C„ school where the event took place.
The immense program took three days for completion, although
the actual running times for each day were 55, 20, and 30 minutes
respectively. Rain and snow during the second and third dgys of thw,
match slowed up the program by at least'3o minutes. '
All events were rpn on the same field, with the cadets standing
at attention for the distance events until starling time rolled around*
Four high-jumping pits at successive heights enabled the cadets te
go from one to the other until they were eliminated!
Two discus circles and six shot put circles added ot the time-sav*
mg venture Tapes? guns and watcnes were not used until the final?
durin„ the last day of the meet. After the first day of competition:
when 1400 cadets competed, the field was narrowed to 520 entree#
the second day and 150 finalists for the third day of competition. '
Four hundred eighty cadets tried for honors in the. 100-yard dash,
while over 300 competitors entered in five other events. The we&thnff
was strange 100, with the sun beaming on the iirst day entrees, raid
pouring during the second 'day of the program, and snow
during the finals.
The project, possible only through strict military control, is the
first of its kind to he run off in military camps throughout the United
States. Credit must therefore be given to the o’-iginator—oup own'
Chick Werner.
Chick, himself a track man and holder of five world's hurdle
records, deserves thanks for such a tremendous program
