Drake Carnival

Beneath a benevolent sun, 2,796 mid-western running-jumping-hurling youths held a relay carnival at the Drake Stadium, Des Moines, Iowa, last week. On the average, their performances were better than those at the Penn Carnival. Iowa State captured the medley and the two-mile relays, and the University of Iowa won the 440-yard and the one-mile relays. No decathlon was attempted.
