The University cross-country team will hold its seventh annual run with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology this afternoon at 3 o'clock. The race will be held over the Chestnut Hill course for the first time. This course has been shortened to 5 miles, and now consists of a 3-mile and a 2-mile circuit. The start and finish will be near the corner of Boylston street and Dunster road, Chestnut Hill. From this point spectators may obtain a good view of the start, the 3-mile mark, and the finish.
