EDITORS HERALD-CRIMSON :-During the past week the question has been raised in your columns several times, editorially and in correspondence-who is the best man to send to New Haven next year to represent Harvard in the mile walk? The winner in last Saturday's race and a gentleman who did not walk this fall have both had their supporters, but not a word has been said for the plucky freshman who made nearly or quite as good time in that race as the victorious senior. Shattuck, so far as is known, never walked a race in his life till winter before last. He has had no training, and yet he came within a second or two of beating an older and more experienced man. Such a man just starting upon a four year's course, certainly does not want to be overlooked.
