...because the Huskies had double-barreled power awaiting the 1500-meter run. It was not enough that co-captain Paul Organ had placed first in the 110-meter high hurdles (14.8) and second in the 400-meter intermediates, or that John Dweyer added second in the highs and Gary Schmidt won the intermediates...
...middle-distance groups, the Harvard picture breaks into two divisions. At the 400-meter level, there are again no standouts, with Ryan Lamppa, Chris Nicodemus, Brian MacAndrews, Dave Frim, and possibly Gary Schmidt all striding into what Stowell described as a "muddled" picture...

West German economic growth, which in the '60s rivaled that of the Japanese, has slowed to a stumble. At last May's London summit, Schmidt assured fellow leaders that his country would achieve a 5% expansion in 1977. The true figure, however, was only 2.4%, and there is no guarantee that Bonn will achieve its 3.5% target...
