Jack Cook, Warsaw High School’s all-around senior athlete, cleared the high jump bar at 6 feet, 2-1/2 inches to break the previous Fisher Field record of 6 feet, 2-1/4 inches set in 1951 by Dave Burke, also of Warsaw. Burke later went to Purdue, returned here as head track coach, and is now head track coach at Culver Military Academy. Dave still holds the Warsaw school record of 6 feet, 3-1/2 inches, set at Columbia City in 1950. Cook did not try for this mark, due to the cold wind that prevailed here Tuesday evening.
