This is a photograph from, what appears to be, Central High School (Cardozo), some time in the 1920s. These young ladies are competing in the low hurdle race.

  1. Oh, yes, the men were hooting and hawing because hurdles were flying.
    Imagine the nonsense women have had obstructing their progress over the centuries.
    I so admire those early female athletes who went ahead and conquered the English Channel,
    the Atlantic Ocean by air, and the posh golf courses. Our foremothers were fabulous!
