Although only one of the
athletes sent to the B.C. High
School Track and Field
Championships from, the
northwest zone competed in
a final in his event, many of
them had personal best
times and all of them gained

. What they were sent down to
get — experience.

Burnaby Central Secon-
dary School from the Van-
couver suburb of Burnaby
ended up winning the mects,
with Mount Douglas, Senior
Secondary, a perennial track
and: field power from Vic-

_toria in second spot and
Handsworth Secondary from
Vancouver in third.

Ten students from Skeena
Junior Secondary School and
two from Caledonia Senior
Secondary School in
Terrace, three from Mount
Elizabeth Secondary in
Kitimat, two from Hazelton

“Secondary and one from
Prince Rupert Senior
Secondary travelled to
Swangard Stadium = in
Vancouver to take part in the
meet.

Colin Parr was the only
athlete to compete in a final,-
the 5000 metre run, which
had no preliminary heats.
Parr finished 15th out of 25
runners in the event, with a
time of 16:57.47,

Noone really expected any
of the northern athletes to
win the events’ they were
entered in, due to the fact
that they train on facilities
that'don't even come close to
those available to the
southern athletes, and
because of a distinct Jack of
interest in track events in
schools in this zone. Several
of the northern schools had
trouble finding coaches to
take the teams, and those
who did were often

_ discouraged by poor tur-

nouts at practices.

Those athletes that did go
to the provincial meet were
surprised at the level of
competition at the meet.
Several found it hard to
believe that the southern
athletes were as much betler
than they were as-they were,
but most found themselves
encouraged by their per-
formances, with at least six
athletes ‘turning in personal
best performances al lhe
meet.

Mare Ringuette of
Caledonia competed in the

triple jump -and the long
jump, turning in a jump of
11.71 metres in the triple and
oneof5.67 metres in the long.

Linda McConnell of
Skeena ‘had a jump of 4.68
metres in (he women’s lang
jump, while Prince Rupert’s
Teri Gore jumped 4.52
metres in the long jump.

Gore also competed in the
women's 100 metres, turning
in a time of 13.69 seconds.
Kitimat's Barbie Stockman
ran in the women’s 100 and
200 metre races, finishing
with times of 13.27 seconds in
the 100 and 27,41 seconds in
the 200.

Skeena’s women's 4x100
metre relay team, manned
by McConnell, Karen
Wideman, Dianna Lorenzen
and Lisa Peterson, ran a
52.83 second race, an éx-
cellent time for the team.
The Skeena men’s team,
with Noel Valdez, Alan
Hildebrand, Sean Boyd and
Brent Rogers, also finished
witha goodtime, running the
-4x100 metre relay in a time
of 47.57 seconds.

Boyd and Gary Moen from
Caledonia both competed in
different heats of the men's
400 metres, with Boyd
running a 52.55 400 and Moen
running the distance in 53.8
seconds. Moen also com-
peted in the men’s 800 _
metres, running his heat

Temperence

at Belmont

NEW YORK (AP) — This
horse, in my opinion, had no

business to be a 50-4 shot, if.
for no other reason than’

someone had the confidence

- to put up $20,000," said John

Ed Anthony. .

But the crowd of 58,000 at
Belmont Park on Saturday
for the Belmont Stakes. was
less swayed by the $20,000
put up by Anthony to sup-

plement Temperence Hil!

into the final race of the

Triple Crown than'they were -

straight losses and his op-
position which include

records fall, including the
women's Canadian in-
terscholastic long jump
record and the B.C. high
jump women's. record,

Yvonne Coelho of ‘Little.
Flower Academy in Van-
couver was the meet’s
outstanding female’ athlete
as she smashed ‘the old
Canadian long jump record
by23 centimetres on her first
jump of the nieet. Her 6.10
metre jump was good for the
win, although she broke the

old record four other times,

and her worst jump of the
day could have won the

meet. ;

Linda Spenst of Mennonite
Educational Institute in the
Fraser Valley, was’ the
meet's most inspirational
competitor as she broke her

PARIS (AP) — Vitas

Gerulaitis served up lobs,
‘drop shots, top-srin volleys,’

Sliders, fastballs, even

watermelon balls, ‘anything
to “ruin the rhythm” of the
Clay Court King; Bjorn Borg.
It worked for all of about 20
minutes.’

“Tt was kind of working —
in the beginning,” said
Gerulaitis after Sunday's
French Open finals,

But by the end of the first
set, the. 24-year-old Swede
had mastered the Gerulaitis
strategy. And he eventually

put away the match 6-4, 4-1,
. 62 to win his record fifth
French crown,

This week Paul Cohen,
coach of U.S, clay court
specialist Harold Solomon,
called Borg “the greatest

clay court player in history."
