Crimson Retains Marathon Title

(Special to the CRIMSON)

CONCORD-The CRIMSON marathon team relaxed at a victory party in this historic New England town last night after retaining the Ivy League title in today's 75th Boston Marathon.

"It's getting a little boring, but it provides a nice break from studies," Capt. Ben Beach told newsmen. Beach stumbled home in 3:18.00. a mere hour after the winner of the pace. The winner was from South America.

Spiritual Victory

Besides beating the other Ivy League newspapers. the CRIMSON team out-ran a blind man, several men in their late 60's, and an author of romantic paperbacks.

The race marked the 196th anniversary of Paul Revere's thrilling ride through the Boston suburbs to warn the citizens that the British were coming.
