...Young of Cornell won the individual championship, beating G. A. Dull of Michigan by a bare eight yards. His time was 34 minutes, 14 seconds, breaking the record made by G. Haskins of Pennsylvania last year, by 55 1-5 seconds. H. Jaques, Jr., '11 finished third in 34 minutes, 20 seconds, also beating last year's record. The pace set by Dull of Michigan was very fast and soon after the start the line of runners extended a quarter of a mile along the course.

C. PELL '08. J. P. WILLETTS '09. K. S. CATE...
...gradually working the one out of the other. The main interest that draws men to these sports in the winter is the prospect of the intercollegiate games. The sports are new and they require stimulus. Hence they will cut short the only interest of the undergraduate life at that dull time of the year, and all the men who go out for hockey and basketball, most of whom do not partake in the major sports, will spend their time idly indoors. Is this what the Faculty desires? Then, too, is it not unfair to the men who have devoted their...
