The hare and hounds run yesterday afternoon, although it had been announced as an easy one, proved to be the hardest of the season. Bordman and Paine, the hares, laid their trail out to Tufts, College and from there over toward West Cambridge. Here they went through some very swampy territory for about a mile. The ground was so soft that the men sank to their knees at almost every step. They finally made the "break" on Concord avenue, about three-quarters of a mile from the gymnasium.
The hounds, 52 in number, lost the trail after leaving the wet ground and split into two divisions. E. B. Hill '94, raced in far ahead of the men he was with. Emerson and Coolidge were the first two men in the second lot, which had come by a different route. As, by the rules, all the hounds should have staid by Emerson, the master of hounds, until he ordered them to break, the first lot of men were disqualified.
Emerson and Coolidge will be the hares in the run next Tuesday.
