The national meet was a two-day event
which was held at Rose Halmun Institute
of Technology and it was the seventh-annual
national meet to take place.
The Hardin-Simmons placed first in
the competition beating out West Point
which ran a distant second. The Univer-
sity of Houston a constant rival of the
HSU team this season placed third.
Leading the way for the HSU team was
Ed Pekowski and Tom Shelton. Pe-
kowski placed first in the overall com-
petition and Shelton palced second.
Pekowski had only a 40-second lead on
Shelton and the third place runner was
17 minutes behind the two leaders.
The team's coach SGM Landry partici-
pated in a coach's orienteering course.
He also brought honors to Hardin-Simmons
placing second on the course.
The team went into the national meet
with a record of 6-1. They had been de-
feated the previous week at a meet in
Ada Okla. The team was never beaten
by a collegiate team. It was a team of
United States Army All-Star orienteers
who defeated the HSU team by only a
minute and 20 seconds. Participating on
the All-Star team was Lester Warren a
graduate of Hardin-Simmons who partic-
ipated on the HSU national champion-
ship team last year.
In addition to the two members who
placed in the first two positions three
other students were a part of the win-
ning team. The other members included

Pekowski and Shelton also received
another special honor. The two were
named All-American and were nomi-
nated to the United States Orienteering
team which will go to Europe for a
formance during the season. Shelton said
that he would liked to have been unde-
feated but that the defeat by the All-Star
team humbled the HSU team before go-
ing to the national meet.
