Cornell easily won the ninth annual intercollegiate cross-country run at Princeton Wednesday afternoon with a score of 39 points. Pennsylvania came second with 61 points, followed by Yale with 135, and Syracuse who scored 173 points. The University team finished fifth with 182 points, after which came Columbia who had 227, Massachusetts Institute of Technology with 228, and Princeton in last place with 231.

Kimball '08. The former was used at the Yale game two years...

The best individual score was made by J. R. Gilman '09, who broke 41 out of a possible 50 birds. The complete score follows...
