GOING IS TOUGH BUT REFLECTIONS PROVE INTERESTING: This is the field for the Class A one-mile run in Saturday's Michigan high school track championships at Ferry Field. The picture shows why no records were bettered or tied. In the lead is Bay City Central's Don Witbrodt, who finished first. Battle Creek's Larry Favorite is second here.
