Following the definite word received Monday that Oxford and Cambridge would face the University and Yale in a dual track meet July 23 came the announcement yesterday that Cornell and Princeton had formally invited the two English universities to combine against them in a meet to be held about July 29 in New York City.

Suggest conditions of meet similar to that of Oxford-Princeton last summer." (Signed) "Berry, Cornell; McLenahan, Princeton.
