Tr-aCk By STEVE FICK The grass always looks greener on the other side of the fence," as the saying goes-and as sayings go, it's not bad. So when Chris Murray, assistant track coach at Iowa State, said last fall that this year's Michigan freshmen were "the best ever" and could take the Big Ten crown in three years, you had to figure he was exaggerating a little. Murray, a former Wolverine distance run- ner himself, probably just wished Frosh Touted he could take a few of the squad back to Ames with him. But sometimes the grass really is greener over there in the next pasture, bad eyesight or no. And it's beginning to look like Murray may have been right after all. Laurels Galore The Wolverine frosh have rack- ed up honors wherever they went this spring, taking numerous firsts and seconds in two meets at West- ern Michigan and one in Ann Ar- bor, often (in open-division com- petition) against varsity and grad- uate-level athletes. Michigan Relays, they swept 7 of 12J In their own for instance, first places in 4 7:15 P.M.-Zwerdling and Dr. Herman Jacobs -Cohn Chapel 1429 Hill St. 4-1-66 the novice division. Coach Don Canham rates theI team "a very good one, a very well balanced team. We've got a real good man in almost every event." He could have said there was a record-setter in almost every event. Olson Leads Parade The milers, for instance, are led by Jim Olson, whose best time last year was 4:06.5--good enough to make him the nation's second best prep miler, behind American rec- ord holder Jim Ryun. Olson, who moved from Bir- mingham Seaholm High to Kirk- wood, Mo., after his junior year, will compete in tomorrow's mile run in the Texas Relays at Austin. The field for the race includes Ryun, Big Eight champ Robin Lingle of Missouri, and 11 other of the country's best milers. Tom Kearney, from Bloomfield Hills, and Steve Bishop, from Vicksburg, rate as two of the other best milers. Kearney's best high school time was 4:13. Bishop, who will probably become a two-miler here, is a former state Class B champ with a best time of 4:15. Steve Klotz of Cincinnati and Taimos Leps, brother of former Wolverine runner Ergas Leps, have also looked very good in the middle-distance events.

The grass, in other words, should be quite green. SGC Endorses Open Athletic Board Sessions Student Government Council, in a unanimous decision last night, urged the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics to open that portion of its meetings which "affect the students and public." Bob McFarland, '68, newly- elected student representative to the board, spoke to SGC support- ing and explaining the resolution along with Chuck Vetzner, sports editor of The Daily, who empha- sized that this was only the first step. McFarland pointed out the im- portance of board decisions for the student body, and noted incidents in the past where students have been kept in the dark about issues affecting them. Explaining that a significant amount of student money is in- volved with board policies, he maintained that this was a rele- vant area for SGC. Vetzner said other things must be done to make the board more responsible to students, especially in the area of intramurals. Board meetings at the present are closed to both the public and the press. The resolution was introduc- ed by Mike, Dean, '67, and in its final form stated that "Student Government Council urges the board to reconsider its policy of holding exclusively closed meet- ings and to open its sessions when faced with matters that affect the students and public." Al Goodwin, '66, suggested that SGC work closely with the two student representatives to the board and other students expert in the matters to effect needed re- forms.
