Scope and content
In May of 1936 Lincoln High School's eleven man team brought Lincoln its second straight State track & field championship. The Abes team scored over twice the points of their nearest rivals. Kenny Wilson, Henry Clifford, Elmon Chilberg, and Harold Berndt set a new state record in the 880 relay, running the race with a combined time of 1:31.7. Lincoln's victory in the State meet left the Abes undefeated for the second consecutive year. In the top row, left to right, are Bob Pirie, Oren Jones, Chester Jackson, Jean Wood, Bryant Stoddard and Henry Clifford. Middle row: Kenny Wilson, John Sharp, Harold Berndt, Elmon Chilberg, Bob Wilson and Jim Harris. Kneeling in front are Coach Vincent Keyes and Burt O. Beal, Director of Athletics. (T.
