...quarter mile cup will not be offered for competition this spring. It was thought inadvisable to allow the quarter-milers to hold a special event for it, previous to the dual games, and since that time many of the men have broken training.

Blunt and Gleason have done 10 1-5s. and Richards 10 2-5s., while Haigh, a new man, has done close to 10s. repeatedly this spring and should win, the other places going to the Yale men. The other Harvard entries are Butler, Sprague and Barnes...
