Newspaper Clipping, November 20, 1915

• – This newspaper clipping is hand-dated 11/20/1915 and describes the results of an intercollegiate cross-country tournament.
• – "The University of Maine celebrated its first entry in the inter-collegiate A. A. A. A. cross-country run by taking first place from the strong Cornell team at the annual run of the association held yesterday over the Franklin Park course. Cornell was conceded an easy victory before the start of the race, and the winning of Maine by the score of 51 to 54 was acomplete surprise, as the best Maine was given was a chance against Yale and Dartmouth for second place. Maine came through in grand shape taking four of the first 10 places with the fifth scoring man coming in 28th. Encouraged by their win in the run of the New England Association last Saturday they set out from the crack of the gun to displace Cornell. Dempsey started outin the lead, closely followed by his teammates, and they stayed well up throughout the whole race. Capt J. Overton of Yale was the individual winner of the race and his time of 33m 21 1-5s against the strong wind which was blowing across the course was excellent. Throughout the race he was among the first six men and did not take the lead until the last mile, where he letout and passed Preti of Maine, who after passing the two-mile mark had led up to this time. Overton opened up about 15 yards, which he held until the last eighth of a mile, when heuncorked a burst of speed and won by about 30 yards. Pennsylvania Gets Third Place. Harvard's showing was disappointing as the Crimson failed to finish better than sixth place. Princeton showed surprising strength in beating Dartmouth and Pennsylvania for third place. At the start Dempsey of Maine jumped into the lead, closely followed by Davidson of Harvard, Gullvier ofYale and Duffy of Dartmouth. They were unable to open up much on the bunch, but held the lead up to the approach of the first mile. Here Cornell's two stars, Potter and Hoffmire, came up and went into the lead. At the two-mile mark they were still leading and running strong. Windnagle of Cornell and Preti and Bell of Maine had drawn up to the leaders, closely folowed byOverton of Yale and Floto of Princeton, who in turn had a small lead on the squad which up to this had not stretched out appreciably. The 3 1/2-mile mark brought a change in positions. Cornell's three stars had relinquished lead to Preti, Bell and Overton. Hoffmire and Potter, however, were only a short distance away, with Brown of Tech, winner of the New England run oflast Saturday, at their heels. Sherburne and Tucker of Dartmouth were running side by side, and Grover of Princeton had a slight lead on each. The fourth mile showed Preti, Bell and Overton still in the lead, all running abreast, and Potter and Hoffmire in fifth and sixth positions. At this time, Dempsey of Maine had come into sixth position, followed by Windnagle ofCornell and Brown of Technology. Overton in the Lead. When the runners came up the hill, Overton showed a lead of about 15 yards over Preti of Maine. Brown of Tech, Potter of Cornell and Bell of Maine were fighting it out for third place. Bell had a slight lead, which Potter and Brown were trying to cut down. When Overton came within about 200 yards from the finish he letout a burst of speed which Preti tried in vain to fight off, the former winning by about 30 yards. Bell managed to hold his lead over Potter and Brown, and finished third, the other two finishing in the order named. Floto of Princeton and Hoffmire of Cornell had it out to the finish for sixth place, Floto just getting the tape. Twelve colleges were represented, Colby andthe College of the City of New York being the only ones not to start their entries. The 76 men who finished covered the course of six miles with a little more than 10 minutes between the first and last man.
