Big Green Downs Varsity Harriers In 21-39 Victory

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

For awhile yesterday at Franklin Park it looked as though the Varsity cross country team was going to win a meet. But then the Dartmouths began running like real Indians and the best teams bowed out of the pictures 31 to 39.

In the preliminary Freshman race, the Crimson evened the overall score by running away from Tufts and Dartmouth 24 to 49 to 6.

Cogan Leads Again

First man to hit the finish line for Harvard in the Varsity contest was John Cogan, in third positions. He was followed by Captain Huns, Rosenfeld, fourth and Bill "Atom" Baker, ninth, Hank Wilbur and John Anderson completed the Varsity scoring.

One bright note in the Crimson's defeat was the performance of last year's. Freshman cross country captain, Joe Leeming, who has been on the injured list all fall.
