Walter Leeds Chapin Jr. '25 of St. Paul, Minnesota, was elected cross-country captain for next year yesterday afternoon when the eleven members of the team assembled at Notman's Studio to be photographed. He has been on the University team for two years and he also ran on the 1925 Freshman harriers.
Chapin prepared for Harvard at the Mechanics Arts High School of St. Paul, Entering college, he became one of the mainstays of the Freshman cross-country team. He placed fourth against Yale Freshmen, being the second Harvard man to finish. He was the first Harvard man in the Freshman Intercollegiates, in which he finished eighth. In the spring, he won first place in the two-mile event against both the Yale and Princeton first-year men.
Throughout the past two seasons, Chapin's work has been consistently good. He was the third University runner to finish the Yale meet last year and the fourth Harvard man this year. He also placed fourth among the Harvard runners in the Intercollegiates at New York last month. Coach Farrell counts upon him as a sure point winner in the distance runs next spring.
