We extend to the freshmen our sincere congratulations upon the well-learned victory of Saturday. Not since four years ago has a freshman nine succeeded in defeating Yale in both games, and the work of Ninety-three, therefore, shows up all the more brilliantly by contrast. In regard to the contest itself, the men could not have done better. They played with any amount of snap and had the game well in hand from the start. The fact that the game was played on strange grounds apparently had no effect whatever, except for the good.

The credit of the victory belongs not only to the players but to the class itself. To be sure, the material furnished was of a much more promising nature than usual; but the real reason for success was in the interest shown by the whole class. The number of candidates was unusually large, and they worked with an energy which presaged sure victory. Thus far Ninety-three has shown herself to be an exceptionally good class in most branches of athletics. We hope that we shall not have to take back our words of praise on account of lack of loyal support from the freshmen to their crew.
