Jones, LaHoff and Johnson will
carry the Penn State banner in
the half-mile. With the Lions' five
fastest half-milers on the Coast,
Jones is still favored to win the
event. He ran a 1 . 53 8 to take
third place against Michigan State
last Saturday. No Pitt runner has
gone below 1 . 58 yet this spring.
Johnson will be in the mile
along with Fred Kerr and Herm
Weber. Weber clocked a time of
4.19 last week and veteran Kerr
also a sub-4:20 miler. The Pan
thers' Ron Rush has hit 4:16 for
the four laps and will probably
be installed as the favorite.
Kerr and Weber will double

Kerr ran the distance in 9:33 to
capture third against the Spar
tans and clocked a 9:26 earlier
in the season at Navy.
