Trackmen Take G.B.I. Meet Title

The varsity track team put the finishing touches on its brute-force triumph in the Greater Boston Indoor championships Saturday at M.I.T. Coach Bill McCurdy's varsity tallied 58 points, 19 more than runner-up B.C.

But the Crimson's victory was only one of sheer weight of numbers. The varsity overpowered its local rivals with a rash of mediocre performances. Rick DeLone's 55 ft., 9 1/2 in. toss in the shot put and Ted Bailey's 60 ft., 2 1/2 in. effort in the weight stood out Friday night, and Ed Hamlin's two-mile triumph Saturday, in a meet record 9:42.5, was impressive.

Rawson Beats Mullin

In the only race that really meant anything, however, Larry Rawson of B.C. left Crimson captain Mark Mullin far behind with a 4:17.6 showing in the mile. Rawson was justly being hailed Sunday as the new king of local college milers.

Hamlin's win was the Crimson's only first place in the running events. Other performances ranged downward from there to a truly unbelievable fifth in the mile relay.

Meanwhile, at Yale, Bobby Mack ran a 4:09.8 mile against Brown and Penn, a rather frightening sign of things to come.
