There is a chance that these four may open the invitational season at the Golden Gate Relays in San Francisco next month. They will be hard pressed to hold their places thereafter, however, as sophomores, led by potential star Keith Colburn, start to challenge. The present seniors were tightly united early in their Harvard career, and got used to considering themselves "up-and-coming." Now they find themselves "old men," and are surprised and somewhat humbled by the existence of a sophomore group whose times compare very favorably...

But when Coach Bill McCurdy puts together a sophomore foursome--say of Roy Shaw, John Dugan, Tom Downer, and Colburn--to compete against the seniors...that'll be one January day when all the social unity and nice-guy fellowship will quickly disappear from Briggs Cage and a 7:45 record won't stand a chance...

Shaw holds the University's record in the mile with a 4:03.4 time and will be Harvard's top entry in that event. In the relay he will be joined by Colburn or any of the four runners who ran a record 7:33.6 relay last year--Baker, Burns, Huvelle, and senior Dave McKelvey, who also runs...
