...been on any previous cross country team, there is ample opportunity to new material. The squad is much smaller than in former years, and every one not engaged in some other branch of athletics is urged to come out. Two squads will be formed, one fast and the other slow. The pace of the slow squad will be kept down to suit beginners, so that no one need fear of lacking sufficient ability. These runs are of inestimable advantage to men who intend to run the half, the mile and the two mile in the spring. Trials will be held...

The openings for many of the longest gains were made by him; he kept his feet well in running with the ball and blocked a kick near Maine's goal line, making it easy for Harvard to score the third touchdown. He was fast in getting...
