Outclassed by the strong and well-balanced Cornell team, the University harriers went down to a 42-64 defeat on the Belmont course Saturday. The feature of the race was the running of T. C. McDermott, the Ithacan captain, who, covering the course in 34 minutes, 23 3-5 seconds, came within less than a minute of breaking the record for the course made by Overton of Yale in 1914. J. W. Cambell, also of Cornell, crossed the tape 22 seconds later, leading B. Lewis '20 by a scant three yards...
...McDermott and Lewis took the lead from the gun. As the race settled down Cambell and Stanton of Cornell and G. F. Wason '20 drew ahead of the mass of runners. After the three-mile mark Stanton and King, another Ithacan, passed Wason. From then on the leaders of the race kept their positions, except that Cambell wrested second place from Lewis in the last mile of the race. F. G. Bemis '22 ran splendidly, working up from the last group to eighth place. Coach Farrell, in speaking of the race, said that the team had showed great improvement since...
...names of the first ten men follow in order: T. C. McDermott, Cornell; J. W. Cambell, Cornell; B. Lewis '20, Harvard; J. L. Dickinson, Cornell; I. H. Stanton, Cornell; C. H. King, Cornell; G. F. Wason '20, Harvard; F. G. Bemis '22, Harvard; T. G. Ames '20, Harvard; J. E. Nally '21, Harvard...
...Ithacans are also badly handicapped by the same lack of experience which confronts the local runners. T. C. McDermott, the captain, is the only "C" man on the visitors' team. L. E. Wenz, who could not race at Syracuse, and J. W. Cambell ran in the last pre-war meet on the Belmont course when Cornell outdistanced the University team. Although Wenz and Cambell did not score in that race, they have developed greatly since then, and are now rated, next to McDermott, as Cornell's strongest runners. The main strength of the Cornell team, however, lies in its being...
Taking into consideration the fact that the University is running without two of its best men, D. F. O'Connell '21 and C. E. Dexter '22, it is difficult to predict the result of today's race. Cornell has only one man of prominence, McDermott, who ran here three years ago and tied with George King 1 G. B., who was at that time captain of the harriers. Syracuse University, whose team led the University here in the last intercollegiate race, has many veterans who will have the advantage of running on their own course...
