1919 County Track Meet

The county Y.M.C.A. sponsored a county track meet in the fall of 1919, a meet with 250 boys from rural and town schools competing in classes defined by weight.

The Clay County Patriot, Clay Center's newspaper carried this account of the meet on October 2, 1919.

How many names of these lads do you recognize? How many of them do you remember as distinguished county gentlemen of your own youth?
