Former Michigan distance ace
Paul Lightfoot set a blistering
course record of 9:24.1 for two
miles to win the All Campus divi-
sion of the Intramural cross-
country meet held last week at
the Michigan golf course.
Lightfoot topped 1970 c h a m p
Sterling Spern by more than a
minute and led Fletcher's Freaks
to the Independent division title.
Spern, who ran for Bartlet House
in the Residence Hall division,
finished second in 10:31.
Finishing second and sixth in
the Independent Division w e r e

runner-up in the Independent
competition.
Finishing sixth overall and third
in the Independent competition
was Robert Schreiner who w a s

the wind itself, sped the difficult
distance in 10:53, and was instru-
mental in pushing Lightfoot to his
record time.

"Biggie" Munn, Michigan State
University athletic director who
suffered a stroke Oct. 7, is ex-
pected to live "but have residual
effects of paralysis of the right:
side and inability to speak."
Sparrow Hospital made that re-
*port yesterday on the 63-year-old
Munn, who coached MSU to na-
tional prominence in the early'I
1950': before becoming athletic
director in 1954.
"As of Wednesday afternon, Mr.
Munn was in satisfactory condi-'
Lion, under the circumstances, in
the hospital's stroke center. He
exhibits improved awareness and
recognition, can swallow soft foods
and sits up with assistance a short
time each day. There has been no
significant improvement in h i s
nedrological condition, but t h e
expectation now is that he will live
.but have residual effects of para-
lysis of the right side and inability
to speak."
