Did you hear that Eric Stuber the week before at the Trifecta workout at Haslett
ran a 4:55.  It was the 32nd straight year that he has at least one mile on the
track under 5 minutes.

Daniel Durusoy stopped by in civilian clothes instead of ruynning togs. 
Daniel, a PhD from Michigan State and a childhood native of Turkey, has a new
job as a mathematics professor at Grand Valley State so he is moving to Grand
Rapids on the Allendale end of town.  He will be trying to make it back to the
track about once per ;month.  We will miss both him and his camera.  New
address is 2620 Royal Vista Dr.  apt #302, Grand rapids.

Craig Prether whoo lives ne of Haslett in some hilly countryside is having a
friendly group run this Sat morn of 8 miles.  If you care to join him inquire

Received a letter from Allan Richens who is back home in England on business. 
he says he is too busy to run and as a result is "getting fat".  Comment:
That'll be the day when London Bridge falls down.
