RUNNERS PLAN FOR CORNELL RACE

Although all the University track men have been having regular practice during the fall, the cross-country team is the only division that will have any outside competition before next spring. Coach Shrubb began working with his long distance men before College opened in an effort to have the training well advanced before the Cornell race next Saturday. At present there are fourteen-men of the University cross-country squad at the track training table. Of these H. G. MacLure '15 (captain) and C. Southworth '15 competed in the intercollegiate cross-country run last fall. R. S. Cook '17, and R. H. Davison '17 are very promising Sophomores on the squad while B. S. Carter '15, G. L. Wilson '15 and A. R. Bancroft '17 have also been doing excellent work. The time trials for the Cornell meet are to be held tomorrow over the Belmont course.

The two other meets scheduled for the University team this fall are the dual meet with Yale over the course at Belmont on November 7, and the intercollegiate cross-country meet at New Haven on November 21.

Next Friday the 1918 cross-country team will meet the Providence Technology Freshmen on the Freshman course at Belmont. Thus far 1918 has not taken a very great interest in cross-country running, but there are a few good men out and more should be in shape by next Friday. The meet is scheduled for 4 o'clock. The list of entries will be announced later.

Prospects of Opponents.

Interest in the match with the University is running high at Cornell because of the victories which the University team has won over the Cornell runners the last two years. Coach Moakley has not as yet decided on the final selection of his men, but all indications point to a team that matches up well with the usual high standard. Captain Cadiz, who received a slight injury to his ankle, may not be in good condition for the coming race, but the remainder of the Cornell squad are developing splendidly. Hoffmire, Potter, Windnagle, Corwith, Silbert and Speiden are the men upon whom Cornell rests her hopes. Hoffmire is easily the fastest of the group, with Potter, Windnagle and Corwith closely matched for second place. Silbert has been doing excellent work of late, but Speiden has not developed as rapidly as Coach Moakley wishes.
