SCHENECTADY TAKES CROSS COUNTRY MEET

Schenectady High School of Schenectady, N. Y., won the annual Harvard interscholastic cross country run Saturday morning with the low total of 65 points, thereby keeping its record of being undefeated in interscholastic meets during six years unblemished. The outstanding school in the preparatory race was Newark Prep of Newark, N. J., which finished with a low total of 35 points.

In the high school group, Schenectady was decidedly superior, its first five runners finishing in third, fifth, seventh, ninth, and eleventh positions, for the winning total of 35. Although it came in second in the final scoring, Newtown high school of Elmhurst, Long Island, had the two fastest runners of the meet. Arthur Cooperman and Edward Wells of the New York school took the lead about half way along in race, and were never headed to the finish. They showed as good speed as has ever been seen in the schoolboy meet, and their team placed second only because the other three of its runners finished in nineteenth, twenty-second, and twenty-third positions.

Arlington Third

Arlington high was the first New England school to place, turning in a score of 123 points for a poor third. G. Buckley of Arlington was the first of his team to finish, arriving in fourteenth place. The course measured about three and one-half miles, being three trips around Soldiers Field.

In the preparatory school race, Newark Prep nosed out the strong Hebron Academy after a close race. The winners made a score of 35, gaining third, fifth, seventh, ninth, and eleventh positions. Hebron won-second, fourth, and sixth, but lost out in total when its last two runners finished fifteenth and seventeenth respectively.

In this race, Marshall Kingsbury, star Moses Brown runner, was the first one to cross the line, his time being 21 minutes, 2 3-5 seconds. He ran a front English of Hebron, who finished second and H. Sears of Newark, third place winner, all having the lead at one time or another.
