Blazing the Waubonsie trail, a pro-

working their way east across central
Illinois and hope soon to reach the ma

1t is the ambition of the Waubonsie
Trail Association to secure this great
nationwide course without expense ex-
cept to those residing on either side,
requesting only sufficient funds to pay
for adequate sign posts and a desig-
mating mark for the guidance of tour
lists. Already the trail has been laid
from Denver to Bloomington, Ill, and,
off until during the coming fall it Is
hoped to announce that the entire line
has been developed. Already the trail
extends for a distance OF 2, 200 miles and
soon another thousand will be added
when the organizers reach the Eastern
goal in this city.

pennsylvania at Buffalo next Friday
and attempt to better the worlds rec
ord figures established by Cornell
team there last year. may be made up
differently than last years quartet in
spite of the fact that all of those men
are available. Coach Moakley has Sc
lected Jones and Berna as two of the
four men. but the competition for the
other places is very keen and the final
selections will not be made until a few
days before the team leaves. Capt.
PUTNAM, Crandall, Longfield, who was a
member of the cToss-country team last
year; Snyder. hitherto thought to be
best as a half miller, and Finch are the
other candidates for the team, and as
most of them are running pretty evenly
the selection of the team is a difficult
problem.
In addition to running in Buffalo
Jones, with Moakley. will leave thai
night for Washington, where Jones
lives. Saturday night, March 2, Jones
will run the half mile at the games OF
Georgetown University. The Cornell

In such cases. however, no temperance

hard. and they feel that by Saturday

The squad will be cut down to ten

poets everyone of them to get at least
Cne place. A good many of the men
will have nearly the same opponents
that they had at the Armory meet.
