Walker Runs Four-Mile Race To Win Cross Country Meet

In a cold, biting wind yesterday afternoon, Eugene H. Walker '37 covered the four mile cross country course along the Charles in 27 minutes, 43.4 seconds to win the annual University handicap cross country run. John P. Scheu '35, promising varsity harrier, without his handicap of fifteen seconds had the best actual time. Hampered by the weather conditions, Robert S. Playfair '36, the only man to start from scratch, failed to finish among the leaders. Yesterday's race was the last true competition the varsity runners will have before the I. C. 4A. meet which takes place in New York City on November 20.

The summary:

First, Walker '37; J. P. Scheu '35; second, T. A. Robinson '34; third, Clifton F. Kann '37; fourth, J. W. Fobes 1G.B. Time-27 min., 43 2-5 sec.
