Junior High Achievements

Hello Dear Reader,

Grandpa (Wes) Carter continued to do well in sports and in academics but sports seemed to take precedence over class work. He did complete a prescribed reading course for the school year 1933-34 and became a member of the Utah State Pupils’ Reading Circle.

Wes High Jumping In the spring of 1935 he went to the 25th BYU Invitation Track and Field Meet and Relay Carnival representing Dixon.  He placed 4th place in the high jump.  This was before the days of the Fosbury flop as you can tell by the photo.  They used to do it the hard way!

Love,

Aunt Genni
