Show Captain Herman Goldsteinâ- Herman Goldstein's sprinting talent is usurped this year to guide the Ute cinder squad to its fourth conference title in five years. Each year "Goldy's" lightning legs have been flying for Utah â€"three years previous to this oneâ€"the Redskins have taken the Rocky Mountain championship. His ideal is to repeat. H Specializing in the century and furlong, Goldstein also serves as anchor man on the 880-relay team. He has grabbed IP/4 points in each dual meet this year and hopes to exceed his eight-point collection in last year's conference meet in the big fiesta three weeks hence. H Competing in Chicago last summer and preparing for a Los Angeles appearance this year the likeable, hard training, little captain is rapidly gaining national prominence.TRACK SEASONâ- Supporting a trend for Utah's R.M.C. track supremacy, the '34 cinder squad focused their season's preparation on the state and conference meet as the school year's finis drew nigh. â- Starting the season out with a 58-37 setback at the hands of the B. Y. U. Cougars, the Utes came back in the next meet and swamped their Farmer rivals from Logan to become rated almost on a par with the Brigham Young aggregation in the race for state honors. â- Utah has been known for many years as the outstanding athletic school in the Rocky Mountain Conference. This recognition was gained by track as well as football. Since the spring of '26, the first track season Coach Ike Armstrong tutored, Utah has lost only two state meets, and in the last five years he has won three conference championships and lost another by only two points. This is, with little doubt, the best track record of any school in the conference. Armstrong was fortunate this year in having a few excellent track men who were able to win enough points in most meets to assure Utah a valuable advantage. â- Captain Herman Goldstein proved himself most valuable. In both the meets so far this season, he has been high point man, winning IU/4 points each day. In the '33 conference meet, "Goldy" showed his worth by running second to Powers of Denver who won the century in 9.6 seconds, Goldstein being only a yard behind. *Ed leppson, 440-yard man, won his fourth sweater and his ....nth point forTwo Hundred |
