Crews A, B, and C of the University squad, and two Freshman crews to be formed later on, are the only ones that will continue rowing now that the regatta is finished. The 1923 eights will be selected by Coach Haines as soon as possible after today's race between the first dormitory crews which will take place at 3.45, and will decide the Freshman championship...
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...
...Belmont course at 3 o'clock this afternoon the University harriers will meet the Cornell team that placed one position higher than they at Syracuse a week ago. Today's race differs from that of last Saturday in that the course, although longer, is less tiring; that all of one team and the best runners of the other will have raced on the course before, and that each side will be strengthened by the return of runners who were out of the race last week because of injuries...
...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...
