STRONG CROSS-COUNTRY TEAM ARRIVES FROM CORNELL TODAY

Although Somewhat Handicapped by Minor Injuries Ithacans Have Speedy Aggregation.

The Cornell cross-country team arrives in Cambridge this morning and will go at once to the Hotel Victoria which will be its headquarters during its stay here. After luncheon the team will go out to Belmont to walk over the course. Several of the University squad will accompany the Cornell runners. The race will start at 11 o'clock tomorrow morning and will be run over the regular six-mile course at Belmont starting at the School house and going up over the hill then down around by the Country Club and over the Golf Course and finally back down the hill to the school house.

After the race the two teams will lunch together at the Varsity Club. Afterwards the Cornell men will be the guests of the University team at the football game with Penn. State.

The team which the University presents this fall is an untried one. Only four of the men who start tomorrow were in the Intercollegiates at New Ha- ven last fall. Only one runner is available from last year's Freshman team. But the team is in good condition and able to stand a hard race.

If Cornell's injured list can return to form before tomorrow, Cornell will present one of the strongest aggregations in the history of the sport at Ithaca. Potter wrenched his ankle a few days ago, and has been in poor shape recently, while Tinkham and Burke, two "C" men have developed strained tendons. Coach Moakley hopes, however, that some of these men and perhaps all will be in shape tomorrow. The team will be selected from the following list: Potter, Hoffmire, Windnagle, Corwith, Eldred, Tinkham, Burke, Boynton, Campbell, Green, Main, Beckwith.

The University runners will line up as follows: K. E. Fuller '16, G. A. King '18, Captain R. T. Twitchell '16, H. R. Bechtel '17, R. W. Babcock '17, C. J. North '17, R. S. Cook '17, A. R. Bancroft '17, W. P. Whitehouse, 2d, '17, R. H. Davison '16, G. A. Hughes '16, H. S. Boyd '17. Also W. Edgar '16 and H. L. M. Cole '16 may run if permission can be secured to enter fourteen men
