Mile RunHillsdale High schol mileI' Ralph Likens made good

Likens won his specialty in the relatively slow timeof 4: 23.6. but was probably pleased with his victory over Mike
Hyan of Wilcox more than anything else about the race. \Likens stated after winning the Mid-Peninsula league mile run

By BILL POINDEXTERA. disappointing number of
parltclpanta, poor reactions tothe pressu.res of top competition, and a.n inspired comethrough 'by Hillsdale's Beniormiler, Ralph Likens, highlighted the North Coast SectionDivision.ITtrack meet at KingCity,
The determined Likens,willed his way to a. revengewin in the mile over his arch- 'rival, super sophomore MikeRyan of Wilcox, clocking thewinning time of 4:23.6.TerraNova's Dan Vincent also'
slipped past Ryan, finishing Isecond in 4:26.7. Likens vic- r:tory' avenged an earlier lossa.t Ryan's hands, in the Golden Gate Invitational meet.
RALPH'S,win furnished theonly points scored by Hillsdalein the entire meet. Montereywon varsity honors with 29points, Hillsdale had 8 on Likens victory.
HI }-]sd a,l e co a c h PlaJ;oYanlcks blamed the failure ofother DOtential Qualifiers toplaee on poor mental attitudes, and unfavorable reac;.tions to the Dressure encounta.red when in top-flight competition.
Aragon was the only otherMid-Peninsula League school
'to place in varsity competition. Bill Larson's Dons taJIiedseven points.' Pole vaulterJack McLeskey accounted forfive of these points, finishingsecond in the pole vault with
l'a height of 13-6.His best isI 13-9.Andrew Hill's Phil Fosdick defeated Jack at KingCity with a mark of 13-11.
Other placers from Aragonwere Cliff Glidden (56-53,4)a.nd Max Nevarez (6-0';4,), whotook' fi,fth.places in the shotput ,a.nd high jump, respectively. Dons tallied 7 totalpoints.
The four qualifiers from theMid-Peninsula League travelto Pittsburg this Friday for"
RC.S. Finals, and those. whoI"survive" there go on to .the!state meet at Berkeley, June 1.
