Track Meet At Dundas

By JIM CULLEN

as there were several holes in officials could also ebtain some line off the track with finish lines and lanes for the com- petiters.

Heather MacLean, Rhoda MacLeod and Francis Whitlock,

all from the capital city, made a clean sweep in the femle events. Heather led the way in the running events — while Miss MacLeod was practically untouchable in the standing and running broad jumps. * In the, men’s division the Conahan brothers (Billy and Wally)- from -Montague were the dominating figures, with Charlottetown’s Frank Ross coming. in for his share of the awards in the events in which he took part.

The Conahan boys. took part in every. event on_ the pro- gram. The meet was very capably handled by Alan Andrews and, George MacMillan. Andrews took care. of the starters duties while MacMillan handled the finish line. * :

Also on the sports scene, but separate from the track and field action St. Peters Bay defeated Souris Line Road in a tug- of-war to advance against Red Point lightweights in the final which will be pulled today.

-Track--and-field-action resumes at Dundas today with the junior performers holding the spotlight.
