SPORTS OF THE DAILY Harriers place high Special to the Daily The University of Michigan cross country team placed second, behind Penn State, in the Central Collegiate Championship at Glen Ellyn, Illinois, yesterday. "I think we might have done better than them (Penn State) if we didn't have the bad breaks. I'm not taking anything away from Penn State, I felt they are the best team in the East," commented coach Ron Warhurst. THE BAD BREAKS Warhurst was referring to occurred when twp of the Michigan runners were tripped up and lost a considerable amount of ground as a result. In one instance, Wolverine Doug Sweazey was interferred with and lost his shoe, forcing him to run part of the race without his shoe. Sweazey was in ninth place at the time of the infraction. TOP FINISHERS for Michigan were: Dan Heikkinen third with a time of 24:28; Steve Elliott, fourth-24:31; Dave Lewis,, 11th-24:11, and Gerald Donakowski 14th-24:43. Warhurst was pleased with the per- formance of his runners. "I think this is the first time I felt fairly happy after a loss." Penn State won the meet with 36 poin- ts, followed by Michigan's 52, Notre Dame's 127, and Bowling Green's 131, in a large field of teams. -Daily Sports KLIPSCH LOUDSPEAKER SEMINAR Featuring Factory Representatives from Klipsch & Associates WEDNESDAY, NOV. 1, 3-7 pm E DUCA T!NAL - CENTER OOPS!

Vaclav Nedomansky and newcomer Roland Cloutier led the Red Wings . with five goals between them, as 15,872 fans at Olympia roared their approval. Rogie Vachon played his finest game in a Red Wing net, allowing only two late goals when the game was well in hand. "They were clicking, they were checking and they were skating with authority," said a pleased Detroit Coach Bobby Kromm. "We took advantirge of some opportunities early in the second (period) and kept it up all the time." The ones who kept on the pressure were Detroit's "odd couple." The veteran Nedomansky-who scored the only first period goal en route to a hat trick-and the rookie Cloutier-who brought the crowd to its feet with two picture goals-buzzed around the Chicago end, creating chances for themselves and their teammates. After Nedomansky's first period'marker, four Detroit goals broke the game open ii the second period. Dale MCCourt blasted a 20-foot slap shot past Chicago goalie Tony Esposito at :16 to start' the onslaught.,Before the stanza was over, Cloutier and fellow rookie Fern LeBlanc combined tallies with Nedomansky's second goal of the game to boost Detroit to a 5-0 lead. Cloutier's goal was by far the prettiest. The rookie from Kansas City deked past Bobby Orr and around Doug Hicks before flipping the puck over Esposito's right shoulder. Cloutier and Nedomansky sandwiched their final goal around two Chicago tallies in the third period.
