(Tross (Tountr 1921 f The second year of the revival of cross country running showed a marked improvement in interest and team ability. There were no outstanding men, but rather a group of evenly balanced runners. The s()uad was finally singled out from about 45 aspirants. In the handicap run, which was open to freshmen and varsity, the Aggie followers of this sport saw the beginning of the hard grind of the daily running. Bill Matthias, captain of the team, was first man in despite his handicap of two and one-half minutes. M. R. Henre, handicapped the same, was second, and E. H. Bradley was third. The team which ran against K. U., and which met the big defeat of a 17-38 score because of the unknown stretch of almost a mile of brick pavement, was composed of the following men who placed according to the number following their name: Matthias, 3; Chapman, 7; Bradley, 8; Clapp, 9; Bryan, 11; and Ibach, 12. Just previous to the meet with Nebraska university, November 5, the team was greatly strengthened by the addition of M. R. Henre. As a result, the Aggie men won a decisive victory over their opponents by the score of 17-38. This team was composed of Clapp, Matthias, and Henre who tied for first, with Chapman, fifth, with Bradley sixth, and with Bryan ninth. The final meet which the Aggie antelopes entered and which gave a good comparison of the relative merit of the individuals in a valley setting, was the M. V. meet at Lincoln, Neb., on November 11. The team which made the trip was the same as the week before, and among the thirty-six entries made the following places: Matthias, Henre, Clapp. Bradley. Chapman. Bryan. The placing of the teams was: Iowa State, first with 31 points: K. U., second with 50: Kansas Aggies, third with 75: Nebraska, fourth with 80: Grinnell, fifth with 8S; and Washington sixth with 140. Captain Matthias, M. R. Henre, and W. J. Clapp reached the requirements for monograms and were presented with the cross country sweater. 2 c:»c j: jRTy i i= z :E: m
