According to the figures, Harvard should win the meet with a total of 43 points; Dartmouth should capture 40 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.

Heasely, his teammate is not capable of equaling that performance, but is expected to finish a safe second. Alcorn, Green hurdler who captured second honors last year, is generally conceded the leader in this class. He has been clocked at 6 2-5 seconds in a recent time trial at Hanover in the 50 yard hurdles. Putnam will most probably finish third...
