One of the most pleasing events of fall athletics is the annual series of hare and hound runs. The present weather is in every respect so well suited for a successful run that it is a matter of surprise that one has not already been arranged. Every day of such weather should be utilized. In past years the runs have been invariable successful, and an extra effort should be made to bring the sport before the new students, for the exercise is adapted to develop staying powers as well as fleetness of foot. While the exertion of a quick run is often too severe for the ordinary man, the slow runs offer an opportunity to all. There is little or no reason why the Athletic Association should delay the runs until after the fall meeting. It is certain that if the series is begun at once, an additional interest will be lent to the meeting, as no doubt many men will be induced to enter who would not care to do so later. We trust that next week will see the annual trails around the outskirts of Cambridge.
