Reseña del editor

Excerpt from Track and Field

For centuries sculptors and poets alike have glorified the fine phy siques of track and field athletes. The Greeks considered imperfect physical development a disgrace, consequently every youth sought diligently to develop a beautiful and well proportioned body. In addi tion, each individual aspired to excel in speed, endurance, and cour age. It was only natural, therefore, that aspiring athletes should turn to track and field sports as the media through which these qualities were to be developed.
