the field events. .

mile run. Moorhead beat Young, ■'+. it. *
the 1961 Big Ten indoor two-mile,,
champion, m the mile run last'

necessary to decide the winner
since both runners' finished in
4:14.1. State won the triangular
meet with 65% points. Michigan
State had 49%, Ohio State '46.
The Lion captain was the victor
in another, personal: duel two

Steve Popp- wiU be up against
Michigan State's : Zack Ford in the
sprints. Ford nipped Pehn State’s

The Spartans have plenty of
good material for future years,

Big. Ten, indoor meet, will give
plenty of ; trouble to the Lions’
440 men and broad jumper Bob
