Olympic committee plans lower budget By BRIAN MARTIN and PAUL CAMPBELL Special to The Daily SOUTHFIELD, Mich. - Determined to avoid the monetary morass of Montreal and the multitude of organizational problems that have beset Olympic host cities in the recent past, the Lake Placid Olympic Organizing Conimittee (LPOOC) vowed that the 1980 Winter Games will be on schedule and below the budget. The LPOOC has budgeted a relatively modest $100 million for the finan- cing of the Winter Games, allowing $71 million for construction and $25 million for administrative costs. A PORTION OF the administrative dollars is being used for a national promotional tour which stopped in the Detroit area yesterday for the weekly meeting of the Detroit Sportscasters Association at Northland Stouffer's. The media dined on turkey and gulped large quantities of free spirits (courtesy of Sports Illustrated),' while featured speaker Sheila Young Ochowicz and other LPOOC officials waxed confidence about the prospects for a smoother and less commercial Olympics. "We hope to return the Games to the athlete," said Ochowicz, triple medal winner in speed skating at the 1976 Innsbruck Games. "Money has been such a big deal in the last few Olympics that the athletes and their spor- ts have been overshadowed." TO HELP put the Lake Placid games back in perspective, the organizers have consulted with environmentalists to guarantee that the natural beauty of the area will stay intact after the spectators go away. "We'll only be accommodating 51,000 fans a day," said LPOOC public relations assistant Maureen Lewi. "The rest of the people will just have to stay home and watch it on TV." The people of the upstate New York town, which also hosted the Winter Olympics in 1932, have gladly donated their time to help contain costs. A PUBLIC referendum was held in Lake Placid before the town put in its bid for the games and passed easily. This avoided the problem which oc- curred in Denver, where the city had already been awarded the games when a state referendum showed the people of Colorado just weren't interested. Part of the Lake Placid austerity plan is based around building facilities that will have practical use after the competition is over. So, the athlete's housing complex will become a minimum security prison. The new ice arena being built for figure skating and hockey will seat only 8,000 people, because the town of 3,000 can't support an Olympic-sized arena after the XIII Olympics close. OCHOWICZ WAS also quick to point out that, although she is dimninished to a non-competitive status by her eight-month pregnancy, U.S. speed skaters should excel once again in 1980. "I feel really good about the 1980 team," said Young. "It has just as great, if not greater, potential than last year's team." WINGS KNOCK OUT PENGUINS, 3-1 The Michigan Daily-Thursday, November 3, 1977-Page 9 MICHIGAN LEADS IN BIG TEN TITLES ' w - - -. i .i-.i %-Jpr l AL 1 f iJ i./ -L -V F-r ii " .its V - - , - - + Harriers ru By ERNIE DUNBAR When Michigan's cross country team travels to the Big Ten cham- pionships this weekend, they'll carry the added responsibility of trying to win the school's 200th Big Ten title. Since joining the conference in 1895, Michigan has won 199 Big Ten championships scattered over twelve intercollegiate sports. The Wolverines have proven most successful in football, winning 27 championships overall with 10 out- right and 17 co-championships. That figure ranks them tops in the confer- ence. Following close behind is the mens' tennis team with 23 outright and three co-championships. Coach Bri- an Eisner's squads have boosted that total significantly in recent years, winning the past 10 Big Ten titles. Michigan's early powerhouses in outdoor track were main reasons in claiming 25 championships. The thinclads took the title from 1901 through 1904 and came back with four more consecutive titles from 1937 through 1940. Overall the team had its best success from 1930 to 1944, winning ten of the 15 championships awarded. Baseball follows with 24 champion- ships which is tops in the Big Ten along with Illinois. Michigan has 17 outright and seven co-champion- ships, while the Illini have 19 outright titles. From 1918-1929 eight of the twelve conference crowns went to Michigan. n or The indoor portion of the tr season accounts for 23 of Michiga total championships. This lead conference figure was solidified fi 1934-45 when Michigan dominated sport, winning 10 of 12 titles. Swimming led the Big Ten wit] titles, taking 15 of 19 championsi awarded from 1931-45. Michigan's golf record of 12 cha pionships places it on top in conference, overtaking that posit from 1932-36 when they captured five championships. The gymnastics squads also ha 12 titles to their credit, ranking the third in the conference. Coach N Loken's teams produced half th total from 1961-66, winning the cro eachyear.

In basketball, the cagers have managed 10 titles, placing way down'. in sixth position in the conference. Three titles from 1964-66 are the bright spots in their total. Both the hockey and cross country teams have amassed five Big Ten championships, with the icers taking two -in'a row in 1968 and '69 and the harriers grabbing the last three races held. Michigan's total of 199 champion- ships breaks down to 164 outright and 35 co-championships. Illinois ranks second with 168 titles, 144 outright and 24 co-titles. En route to their conference lead- ership, the Wolverines have man- aged to rank first in titles won in seven of the twelve sports they" compete in. So if Michigan's cross country team comes back to Ann Arbor with its fourth consecutive victory on Saturday, Don Canham can hold his own little Bicentennial party.

Star center Bob Lanier left the game with 3:51 left after being Aoked in the eye. An eye doctor checked the injury after the game, but no official word was released. The high-flying Hawks, sporting four rookies and a balanced scoring attack, are now the proud owners of a 4-game winning streak and a 5-1 season mark. In years past, the Hawks would rely mainly on the scoring of forward John Hawks throttle Pisto Drew. Nowadays, the new look club, boasts five men scoring in double figures. Drew and former Minnesota Gopher Ron Behagan got the Hawks off to a flying start last night, combining for 28 points in the first half. Meanwhile, the Pistons couldn't get anyone besides Lanier to find the hoop. Lanier hit for 19 first-half points and went on to lead all scorers with 29. The Pistons faced a 63-42 halftime deficit. "We came in at halftime, and Herb said we weren't playing with any inten- sity," said Piston forward M. L. Carr. "Then he looked right at me. He wanted me to be the catalyst." Carr went out and teamed with guard Kevin Porter to spur a late Piston comeback attempt. £"t4 oj the tz)ad4 Badger star bails out Wisconsin's Mike Meeker, currently tied for the lead in scoring in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association, (WCHA) has quit school. Meeker already scored six goals this season and was supposed to be an integral part of the defending NCAA champions' offense.

Last year Meeker scored 26 goals with 27 assists for a total of 53 points. - DAILY SPORTS Carlton cops Cy Young award PHILADELPHIA - Steve Carlton, the 23-game winner, earned his second Cy Young Award as the National League's top pitcher yesterday.

The Red Wings scored the only goal of the first period and added two more in the middle stanza to take a 3-0 lead. Detroit goalie Ron Low was outstan- ding with several important saves to keep Pittsburgh off the scoreboard. Low stopped 25 of 26 shots and drew standing ovations from the crowd and several chants of "Low ... Low ... Low." Tom Cassidy ruined the shutout with only 4:49 remaining in the game. Cassi- dy's shot hit Low's stick, dropped on to his pads, and then trickled into the net. The victory gives Detroit a 4-3-2 record, good for second place in the Norris Division.
