Bill Morris Stars In Handicap Race

Bill Morris and Don French showed excellent early season form yesterday although they finished sixth and seventh in the annual University Handicap cross-country run. Arthur Reider, a freshman running with a time handicap, was the actual winner of the 3 1/2 mile run down the banks of the Charles.

On a time basis, however, the second five finishers did better than the winning quintet, but the five-minute handicap was too much for the varsity runners to overcome. Morris, captain of last year's freshman squad, finished in 18 min., 34.5 sec.; and French was right behind him in 18:35.

Behind Reider's winning 19:18.5 came Ralph Perry with a 19:24. The other runners in the first five were Dave Norris, 19:48.7; John Carpenter, and French Anderson, all freshmen.

After Anderson on a time basis were Al Wills, 18:58; Dave McLean, 19:09; and Paul Beck, 19:12.
