...Yale runners is the better is hard to tell; both have done well in competition, and turned in better times than either of the University men. Coxe was unable to run in the Harvard-Yale meet, being disabled with a pulled tendon. In the Princeton meet, however, he ran a close second to Stevenson, the Tiger quarter-miler, in the fast time of 48 4-5 seconds. Chapman is a former Exeter runner who has been running for the Yale freshmen this spring. His best performance in a meet was against the Tiger yearlings, when he won his race...
Captain Bemis has been on the cross-country team for the last two seasons and is at present the most experienced harrier in the University. He finished fifth against Yale last fall, the next Crimson man being Pratt. Pratt also ran on the 1923 team in 1919, as did Winchester, who captained the yearlings that year. Although Dexter was the last University man to score in the Yale meet last fall, two weeks later at the Intercollegiates he outran all his team-mates and was the first Crimson harrier to cross the line...
...turn he had a lead of five yards, and although this was lessened temporarily by the spurt of Kelley of Medford, he was able to increase it to ten yards by the time he crossed the finish, in 51 1-5 seconds.

...other day we ran an editorial remarking that Harvard in many respects may be compared to Main Street; there is a sameness from day to day, it was observed, in our life that smacks of the monotony of Gopher Prairie. The boy whose duty it is to hand out books at the desk in the Main Reading Room of Widener must have read that editorial and have been profoundly moved by its truth. Indeed we believe he took it so much to heart that he determined to do his share to spice the drab existence of the undergraduate with...
...will be for second and third place, and Bayard Wharton '22 and Richard Chute '22 will have a job on their hands in beating out Johnson of Princeton. Conover is the favorite in the half-mile race, especially in view of his performance of two weeks ago, when he ran a close third to Campbell and Siemens of Yale in a remarkably fast race. Either H. F. Colt '22 or A. J. Fox '21 should be able to get second place, the other probably taking third...
