Mr. Wood 5jf w at Libby, Montana, as Super LwTert but his plan still continues 1 T Minn and this year will be car t0 i n under the .«uperviion of Super T^ 0 ? t Clifford D. Knapp and Fdnr L Bowers. Several C< hools^have already signified that ? till enter and are going to try tiie - ■ t j, e Meet which will be held ""in* on Saturday, May 5th ^'The Big Four," according to Mr. Mood's original idea stands for the il northeastern counties, Daniels, Sjhland Roosevelt and Sheridan. Contestants from all the accredited Sfch Schools of these "Big Four bounties enter each spring in a track B field meet at Culbertson and this i, with the Meet about one week later than usual, shouhl give all the j ' h00 p a chance to present stronger comnetition. No one outside the four counties can enter and the High, School they represent must be fully accredited and in good standing with the State Athletic Association. Mon tra High School Interscholastic As sociation rules apply to this meet and iio athlete can enter unless deemed eligible by the State Association. A number of the athletes winning in the 'Big Four" Meet have been made pood records at the State meets. Medals are given for first and sec ond place in fourteen events: A silver cup and a pennant are given for first and second place in the meet and a j large silver cup to the school winning the greatest number of points in the meet. This large cup must \fe won three consecutive years before any school is entitled to keep it perman ently Culbertson has won it the last two years but their chances this year are not so good, as their star man Edward "Nute" Anklam graduated last spring. Nute was high point man the last two years. Each year there are about 100 con testants entered on the eligibility lists of which about 65 actually take part. In the last three years twelve new records have been made. It is believ ed that a few more records will be broken this spring if the weather al lows good track conditions. A banquet is given each year to the contetants and the coaches or school representatives in charge of the contestants. This is usually fol lowed by a big dance which brings to a close another glorious "Big Four track and field meet. The Culbertson 1 I band of 40 pieces furnish the for the day. The Culbertson High School and community hereby extends a cordial invitation to all eligible schools and their rooters. Don't forget the date of the "Big roar Track and Field Day, May 5th.
