Werner, alwayi a great story teller, picked up
a newspaper dated April 1 as he sat at his desk
in Recreation Hall.
"You know this reminds me of the time the
Daily Collegian ran the April Fools day story
about our track team. The paper had a big story
that day about a runner named Harry Lightfoot
who had Just run a four minute mile in practice.
"It described his time at the quarters, told how
he led the field the entire race,
and even had me listed as the
timer. Then down at the tail end
of the story was an April Fool
line.
and when we traveled to our next
meet, we found the story clipped
and posted on the bulletin board.
As sdon as we arrived everybody
wanted to see Harry Lightfoot,
Dick litel)owell the man who had run the four
minute mile. They never noticed the April Fool ,
tag at the end' of the story."
