With W. W. Kent '16 out of the one mile run, first place in this is generally conceded to Speiden of Cornell who won the tow-mile run in last year's dual meet. The 880-yard run will probably be the most interesting of the afternoon as Caldwell and Speiden will both be strong contenders against F. W. Capper '15, and E. P. Stone '15. In the two-mile run R. St. B. Boyd '14 and F. H. Blackman, '14 should be able to finish ahead of Cornell's best men, Hoffmire and Potter, who are inexperienced runners from...

At the start of the race the Seniors gained about half a length on the other two but soon lost it, and before the mile point was reached it was clear that the race would be between 1915 and 1916. Throughout the greater part of the race the crews rowed a very low stroke about 32 to the minute. The time of the winning boat was 10 minutes and 47 seconds with the Juniors 3 seconds...

Kent '16, who broke the Freshman dual record for the mile in the Yale 1916 meet last spring, has developed a bad ankle which will probably keep him out of the Cornell meet. It is not known whether the injury is a sprain or a broken bone...

While the four-oared event is a little more spectacular, because more extraordinary, and gives opportunity for lighter men to win their "H's," a second eight-oared crew affords better training for a University four-mile race. The great advantage of the four-oared race and the one that should make it stand is its tendency away from specialization...
