Sime ran in his first col legiate meet here last year and won the 10b-yard dash with a time of 9.4 seconds. Later in the season Sime set a new world's record in the low hurdles and tied the world's records of the 100-yard and 220-yard dashes. Seven Lettermen Return Leading Coach Weems Baskin's ,cindermen into the meet will be five returning lettermen from last year's team and two lettermen re turning from a tour in the serv ice. One letterman, javelin thrower Zeke Bartulski, will have his! sights on the ACC javelin record. Bartulski presently holds the state record with a toss of 218 feet, 8% inches. Zeke obtained this record with a cast on his left arm. Now with the cast off he hopes to do better. The leading pole vaulter and broad jumper, letterman Conway Snipes, will be in the running all year in these two events. Snipes finished the state meet last year with the most points by winning the pole vault, broad jump, and finishing third in the 100-yard dash. The remaining lettermen return ing are Larry Patrick, George Thomas, and Heyward King in the dashes, Roddy Robbins in the low hurdles, and Heyward Hornsby in the 880-yard run.
