...prove bitterly blue and sad at the end. It may be bold, but we venture the suggestion that if every man in this University made up his mind to keep himself and his friends cheerful for the whole year, to be silent about things which he did not understand and to give the team captains credit for right motives and sound judgment we should see a year successful in every way. The CRIMSON cordially welcomes every man and only suggests that we shall be much better friends to each other and to Harvard if we force ourselves to cheer rather...

...must play far different ball than they played in yesterday's game with the juniors. They were thoroughly outclassed at every point. How in the world they expect to score with four scattered hits, or to prevent their opponents from scoring, when they make ten errors, is difficult to understand. Every man in the infield made one or more errors. The worst feature of all was the base running. A stranger to the game would not have known that any such thing as coaching was allowable. This criticism may sound a little unfair in the face of the praise that...
