Harvard is proud of every man of them...
...leaders, however, kept well together until a steep hill was reached, two miles from the start. Here H. H. Howland of Technology took the lead, closely followed by Jaques and Young. This order was maintained for the first three miles. On the second lap Young took the lead, hard pushed by Dull. The pair were running shoulder to shoulder when they turned into the stretch at the finish. Young with greater reserve forged ahead, winning by a scant eight yards...
