HARVARD'S DAY

The University cross-country team defeated Cornell at Ithaca on Saturday by the score of 52 to 55 in the first dual run ever held between the two universities. This is the first time a Cornell cross-country team has ever been defeated over its own course.

The University team won through its better average speed. The long lead of Captain J. P. Jones of Cornell, who finished in 29 minutes, 17 seconds, did not count in the scoring. He was followed by three Harvard runners in second, third, and fourth places, with B. S. Carter '15 in sixth place.

F. W. Copeland '13, the first Harvard man to finish, was 43 seconds behind Jones. 46 seconds later R. St.B. Boyd '14, and H. P. Lawless '13 finished within a few seconds of each other in the order named.

The start of the race was clouded by a light snow flurry, which did not last long. Twenty-two men started with the gun and kept well bunched until the half-mile mark, when Jones took the lead. The rest of the field split up into two sections with B. S. Carter '15 and Longfield of Cornell running together between the divisions. Copeland, Boyd, and Lawless of Harvard best out Brodt of Cornell in the first division, while Carter, behind Brodt, barely defeated Longfield of Cornell for sixth place in a sensational finish. The University team finished as follows: 2, F. W. Copeland '13, 30.00 2-5; 3, R. St. B. Boyd '14, 30.46; 4, H. P. Lawless '13, 30:49; 6, B. S. Carter '15, 31:01; 10, F. H. Blackman '14, 31-17; 11, H. G. MacLure '15, 31-24; 16, A. R. Boynton '14, 32-08; 18, C. W. Burrage '13, 32:26; 19, B. V. Samore '15, 32-27; 23, H. M. Warren '13, 36:00
