Photograph caption dated March 24, 1956 reads, "Ceiling for North Hollywood's pole vaulter Jack Munari is 12 feet, 3 inches and when he hit it at league finals it won championship for 1956. Munari's win came as surprise as he was beaten in a dual meet by both Canoga Park's Larry Barnett and Jack's teammate Preston Kelly. Munari got 'sweet revenge' when it counted."
