LOSE ONLY ONE MAN FROM SQUAD WHICH DID WELL IN 1932
Additional Point Winners Coming up From Freshman Class Give Hope
BOAST OF STRONG ROSTER
Pearson and Meinhover Lead List of Luminaries Headed For Championship
Grand Forks, N. D., June 4.-(AP) Loss of only two points off the 1932 squad that lacked but half a point to win this year's conference title together with the prospect of possessing additional point winners is reason enough for the optimism here that the University of North Dakota will win the 1933 north central conference track championship.
The Nodak encampment boasts a strong roster of track and field athletes returning next spring, John Burma, who placed third in the discus at Brookings, being the only point winner graduating. With reinforcements coming up in the way of outstanding freshman talent, the Sioux are confident they will be victorious in the 1933 campaign.
Back again will be Roy Pearson who wins first at any distance; Ted Meinhover, champion weight tosser; Mosher, half and quarter-miler; Winslow, high jumper; Maier and Shore, two-milers, and Pierce, Knauf and Iverson, sprinters and broad jumpers.
Coach C. A. West has three freshmen who stepped right along with conference athletes this spring. They are Nichols, quarter-miler; Belgum sprinter, and Hill, who participates in anything. In addition, Cope, sprinter, and Stocker, high jumper, are outstanding prospects.
With Pierce, Knauf, Iverson, Belgum and Cope, North Dakota will have a great outlay of sprinting talent.
The Sioux will blossom out with a quartet of quarter-milers, where they were weak this year. In Hill they also will have a hurdler, another weak department this year. Mosher and Winslow, veterans, have only started to develop, while Iverson is expected to show considerable improvement.
