...points for second honors, with Cornell third, only seven point behind. The Crimson runners are generally granted the superiority over their two rivals in the track events, but by how wide a margin it is difficult to conjecture. Cornell, as usual, is powerful in the field events; Dartmouth may be ranked a fairly close second; but the University is a poor third. The outcome of the clash would, therefore, seem to depend entirely on the final event on the schedule, the mile relay. The Crimson quartet's fast time of three minutes 28 4-5 seconds in the Millrose Games...

Smith '29, two of the University "dark horses...
