Remember, however that originally OD&D was written to "cap off" at somewhere around 10-12th level. (There were guidelines for characters beyond that, but not much to go from.) AD&D was written with the top stated at 20th level. So, a 13th level cleric in AD&D might correspond to 6th or 7th in OD&D.
I like to think about characters topping off at 12th level. Humans can be 12th in any class, which makes them stronger in one area but not as versitile as some of the other races. Elves can be as high as 4/8 in fighter/MU. When you throw in thieves, Hobbits could be 4/8 in fighter/thief. I should note that I don't use the Greyhawk level-limit extension for high stats.
Since Men & Magic limits Dwarves to 6th level fighter, so I might suggest that the Dwarf be topped off at 6/6 in fighter/cleric or fighter/thief. This would seem to make a nice balance.
