The CRIMSON realizes the difficulty of securing prominent men to speak on political questions; but felt justified in comparing the tangible results of last year's efforts with what has been accomplished this year.

A bad ankle, which had prevented his training as much as the other men, was perfectly well and did not trouble him in the race; he himself felt in good condition and the other men on the team thought that he should run.
