The Roxbury Latin School and Worcester Academy have each entered twenty men. Among the Roxbury Latin boys who have previously distinguished themselves are Dunning. Batchelder, Kimball and Blossom. Fenner, of Worcester, won the bicycle race last year, and holds the interscholastic record; this year the struggle between him, Kimball and Townsend...
