Frosh Win Too; Seals Sets Mark

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Harvard's freshman cross country team embarrassed the varsity a little here today with an overwhelming Big Three Championship. Where the upperclassmen straggled home widely scattered, even though victorious the frosh swept the first three places and six of the top ten.

Led by a slight towhead named Bobby Seals, Harvard destroyed a supposedly strong Princeton team, 19-37, and bombed Yale, 15-50. Since Yale had no finisher higher than 18th the triangular meet results were the same for Harvard and Princeton and the Elis trailed with 85 points.

Seals and teammate Mike Koerner, recovering from assorted injuries, both broke, the old record for the shorter freshman course. Seals' time of 14:51.5 knocked 13.5 seconds from the mark.

In third place was Allen Long, the team's token Englishman. Newly-elected captain Andy Meltzoff took fifth, Rich Jurgens eighth, Jacob Seniuk 10th and Phil Lichtenstein 13th.

The freshmen now have over two weeks off before their next meet--the IC4A's.
