Romig of Penn State has made the best time in the two-mile grind so far this year, doing it in 9 minutes 29 seconds at the Colgate games, and if he can come anywhere near it on Saturday he should capture the title.

Mahon '22 will have to fight to cross the line in second place, as both of the Tiger runners have been doing under ten minutes this spring.

I know that a weary, body-deforming, mind-stupefying, soul-killing grind the worker's life is. I believe I understand the worker's view.
