PAS* EIGHT Tuskegee Relays Produce I By Chuck Smith | TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE. Ala. May 6— “It was _______ tough.” This Just about sums up the twenty-fourth running of the 1 famed Tuskegee Institute relays. and the failure of the Savannah j State college "Flying Tigers” to I capture the feature 2 mile relay trophy for the second successive year. Despite the terrific lead 880 Enoch Roberts, former Beach high student, an equally second lap by “Big Joe” Turner, and I a stellar anchor by Frank "The Rocket” Prince, the weak third leg by Frank "Breadtruck” Johnson was the telling blow in the big event, Johnson was given a ten yard advantaee but came in trailing by fifteen yards. Charles Shepard, Texas College anchor man and former Nation¬ al AAU 800 meter champ, gave a terri r ir surge to hi* the tn*v ahead of Prince by five yards for a clocking of 8:7. The Savanna:i team apparent¬ ly was disheartened by the two mile loss. However. Roberts, Turner, C. P Harris and Prince came back to take third in the mile behind Tilotson and Texa; college, being timed in 3 20.5. Roberts was the workhorse ot the team, finishing fourth in the 4to 'at 140) and then coming bark to run the leg on the two mile relay, and doubling again for the third lap on the mile relay. rears, Macon Flay Sunday a/ The Savannah Bears and the I Macon Colored Peachers will j play Sunday at Grayson’s sta¬ ! dium.
