cut, was well fought to the end, but the
superiority of the visitors in the long
distance runs made the vital difference
as the Quakers bowed.
Clever strategy and inspired runners
finally combined in the NEPS Cham­
pionships to hand MB its 13th straight
title. Allen Harper had the Flu, but the
other team members filled in nicely to
bring off the razoredge victory over
Mount Hermon. Particular plaudits go
to Tom Louttit and Bob Settipane for
outstanding performances. Almost the
entire team in the meet walked off
with at least one ribbon for their
efforts. The shot-put team of
DeSim one, T reglia, and M ostertz
brought in big points. DeFeo, Louttit
and Parker in the high jump added
more. Dave Shaw had a fine day in
both the mile and 1000. The untried
relay team of Cooper, Hanson, Parker
and Levy ended the day on a fine note.
Several members of D oc’s stable
took part in creditable fashion in the
star-studded RI AAU Championships,
in which the Quaker AA once again
proved its innate strength.
W ith few seniors on the track to
better things, many of this year’s team
will be back to heat up the indoor oval.
And, we are sure, Doc will have his
eyes and ears alert to any new pro­
spects.
