...people, however, as evinced in the recent election, have thought differently of the Sixty-seventh. What their real opinion is, cannot be crystallized into clear expression. But Congress still has, until March 4, an opportunity to display talents largely lethargic in the past two years. Prompt action taken on the important bills pending, especially the Dyer anti-lynching bill already passed by the House will regain for them some of their lost prestige. The dying gladiators have a last opportunity to salute His Majesty--the Average Citizen--with something else than mere appropriations and mental inertia...

The Rhode Islanders lost this game 8-4, but if they can display another flash of the power that they showed in certain innings of this contest, it will take the Crimson's full strength to gain another victory...
