The University and Freshman runners will hold their last practice today in preparation for their meets with Yale on Saturday. Both squads will take a complete rest tomorrow. The practice yesterday was one of the hardest this year, and the showings made by both squads justifies the expectation that the Crimson runners will achieve victory Saturday. The work of the sprinters and hurdlers was particularly promising. As a result of the trials which have been held this week, Coach Bingham has already practically decided as to who will run in the meet with the Elis. The definite list will not be announced, however, until after today's practice.
The feeling at Soldiers Field is one of optimism. The showing of the runners in the meet against M. I. T. last Saturday, and in practice this week, has been so promising that all who have seen the Crimson team work out feel that the Blue runners are going to encounter exceedingly stiff opposition. The general opinion of both coaches and runners is that there is an excellent chance of a Crimson victory at Soldiers Field Saturday.
The running of the third of the series of the Garcelon hurdle races was a feature of yesterday's practice. Owing to the fact that Coach Bingham did not wish to give his high hurdles a too strenuous workout, there was no race in this event. However, the 220-yard low hurdle race was run off. In the final heat, Gordon after a perfect start, led Reycroft all the way to the tape, winning by inches. Reycroft, although unable to catch Gordon, nipped Palmer by a narrow margin. The high hurdle race will be run off next Wednesday
