...before the cold weather is finally out of the way, everybody must recognize the determination which the nine thus shows to put in good work at every opportunity. Let the nine keep on in the good course it has begun and we will prophesy for it, if not certain success, at least a series of hard-fought and closely contested games with Yale. We congratulate the nine on the early arrangements of dates for its games with the Yale freshmen. They will thus avoid the bother and uncertainty which so seriously inconvenienced...
