The sixth hare and hounds run, held yesterday afternoon, was the most successful held this year. It was a slow hunt and resulted in a victory for the hounds. The hares were H. A. Davis, '91 and Priest, '91. They laid a good scent through Norten's Woods, Somerville, over the Long Bridge to Malden, then through Medford and Tufts College and home by way of North avenue. They left the bags at Portor's Station. The run was about ten miles long.
There were fifteen hounds at the start, all of whom kept up to the break. The race in from Porter's Station was very close and was won by Gorham, '90, with Davenport, '90, second. The hares reached the gymnasium at 4.42. The hounds were eight minutes behind thus losing only one minute actual time. The trail was so straight and plain that they had no difficulty in keeping up a steady pace. As the hounds won, cups will be given to Gorham and Davenport.
