...THOUGH in the main successful during the past few weeks, our Nine has not shown such field playing as their record during the early part of the season promised.

Cheering, yelling, hoisting their men heavenward, fireworks, and singing inadequately expressed her wild joy. But this we can excuse, even though done with noisy obtrusiveness under the eyes of the vanquished, since her signal success was as much unexpected as was our overwhelming defeat. But while acknowledging our defeat, it is but fair to say that Yale played her best game of the season, while we played our worst; that Yale...
