HARVARD HOLDS CROSS COUNTRY MEET TODAY

Eighty-eight athletes from six colleges will compete today in the Harvard Open Intercollegiate Cross Country run to be contested over the 4 1-2 mile course at Soldiers Field. Harvard will enter a team informally but will not count in the scoring.

Rhode Island State has entered 15 runners; Boston College, 14; Bowdoin, 18; Springfield, 19; Boston University, 9; Northeastern, 13.

The meet is held annually for the smaller colleges and second university teams of the larger colleges and is open to university and freshman competitors who have not competed in the I. C. 4 A championships and who have not finished tenth or better in the New England or Maine championships.

In today's meet Springfield, which a year ago for the third time won the event, will enter a strong team competing for the new meet cup presented by Dennis F. O'Connell '21, captain of the 1920 Harvard track team.

Today's race will be the last for the University harriers before the meet with Yale on Friday, October 30. The distance men, who have won from Holy Cross and from Dartmouth, M. I. T., and New Hampshire, will seek to conclude a sixth undefeated season in seven years with a victory over the Blue.
