Show Breaking old records was the fashion this year. Most of the records broken were records of fairly long standing. Both school records and conference records fell before the determined efforts of the Utes this year. Blaine Lindgren, the star of the Utah team, set the high hurdle record at the Colorado Relays, set the Intermountain AAU high and low hurdle marks in the meet held at Logan. He also holds the University records, for both the high and low hurdles. Lindgren ran the high hurdles this year in 14 seconds flat, which was the second fastest time during the year. He was assisted by some very able teammates in the persons of Mike Soulier and Jon Johnson. Soulier, a sophomore, this year tied the Western Division record and set a new mark in the University record books for the 440. Johnson was the top man for the Utes in the half mile.Above: Wayne Smith, one of the Redskin's top hurdlers shows his form.
