Today's cross-country meet at Syracuse marks the first intercollegiate race held in this country since the war. Besides the University, seven colleges have entered teams: Dartmouth, Yale, Princeton, Colgate, Columbia, Cornell and M. I. T. The race this afternoon is of particular interest in that it will give some indication of the relative strength of the University and Cornell, who will run a dual race next Saturday.
Taking into consideration the fact that the University is running without two of its best men, D. F. O'Connell '21 and C. E. Dexter '22, it is difficult to predict the result of today's race. Cornell has only one man of prominence, McDermott, who ran here three years ago and tied with George King 1 G. B., who was at that time captain of the harriers. Syracuse University, whose team led the University here in the last intercollegiate race, has many veterans who will have the advantage of running on their own course.
The race, which is scheduled for 2 o'clock, will be run over a four-mile course. The following men are running for the University: T. G. Ames '20, S. Harris '20, B. Lewis '20, G. F. Wason '20, A. W. Douglas '21, J. E. Nally '21, and F. G. Bemis '22.
