We congratulate the freshman eleven upon their well earned victory. Notwithstanding the unfavorable weather the game was of such a nature that the practice which the freshmen gained will be of great advantage to them in their contest with Yale. Some roughness in team play was noticeable. Much of this, it is true, was unavoidable owing to the nature of the ground but the team must improve as a team if success is to be hoped for against a team made up of such men as Yale '90 brings to the front this year. It is said that the Yale freshmen possess many strong players and strong work may therefore be anticipated. It seems to be a fundamental principle with the Yale elevens that celerity and safe tackling will accomplish much more more than mere beef and hard playing. Therefore while we are glad to register another victory for the crimson, we feel called upon to urge again the necessity of calmness in victory and a growing determination to win. Attention above all should be shown to the work as a team.
