Mikkola Says Trimble Set to Toss 200 Feet

Track captain Frank Gurley, who hit 2:15 in the 1000 last winter, will run the two-mile the Saturday in the Stadium against Boston College.

That's what Coach Mikkola said yesterday afternoon, following a long session on the Stadium cinders. Furthermore, "some hammer thrower will do 170 feet, and if the wind is all right, some javelin thrower will do 200 feet." There are only two men around here who could possibly accomplish this: Sam Felton in the 16-pound hammer and Don Trimble in the javelin.

Trimble set to Go

For Felton, 170 is nothing new, but the announcement that Trimble may throw 200 feet clears up any doubts people may have had about his back, which was injured by a wildly-thrown 30-pound weight last month.

Gurley will be watched closely in the two-mile. Last spring, he ran a 4:26 mile and a 2:56 880, and in 1940, he captained the cross country team. But as yet, he hadn't concentrated on the two-mile.

Hauptfuhrer Will Hurdle

Two basketball players Pat McCormick and George Hauptfuhrer, as well as an ex-football man, Mary Jenkins, form the Crimson hurdling corps at the moment. McCormick, who will do both the lows and highs, was an all Ohio scholastic hurdler. He's a Sophomore. Hauptfuhrer, this year's basketball captain, will run the 110 highs and will also high jump. He will be aided in both events by Jenkins who came here from Tufts back in 1944.
