Cross-Country Candidates Called Out

All candidates for the cross-country team are expected to report at the Locker Building this afternoon at 3.30 o'clock. Men that have had any practice what-soever in distance running should be on hand as a large squad of men is essential to the success of the team. Freshmen interested in cross-country work should also report this fall. Although they are ineligible for the regular team, they will aid in the development, and, as well, secure good training for next year.

Work will commence this afternoon and candidates should be prepared to run. Strict training will start at once and Coach Shrubb will have daily supervision of the work. A cross-country mass meeting will be held next week, when the plans for the coming season will be fully outlined. The usual meets will be held with Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Yale, although the dates have not been arranged. The season will end with the intercollegiate run in November.

Practice is beginning earlier than usual this year and every effort will be made to make the season successful. The experienced men from former teams are: Captain H. Jaques, Jr., '11, W. H. Fernald '12, G. R. Harding '11, P. C. Heald '11, W. P. Rogers '11, R. H. Rowse '12, E. L. Viets '11, P. R. Withington '12. Other promising candidates are F. C. Gray '12 and P. Newton '11, who won their "H" in the mile and two-mile races in the dual track meet with Yale last May. H. P. Lawless and R. H. Burrage of the 1913 track team, have done some excellent work.
