...November 13 is thoroughly regrettable. That any Harvard man should have such an unsportsmanlike attitude is to be deplored. But to make public such an article just at this time when every possible effort should be made to help out the coach and the team is mighty poor judgment.

The competition is nominally closed, but it is not yet too late to put into use words that are dignified--not blatant and boastful--to be sung to some tune that we all know; nor is it too late...
