Now that Yale has been scored against and it has been clearly demonstrated that she is not invincible the great point of interest for football enthusiasts is the possible effect of the fact on the Harvard team and the Yale team. From the whole history of the Yale teams it is pretty safe to say that the smart of the recent goal by Pennsylvania will only serve to intensify the determination of the Yale players to do or die at Springfield. It has always been the case that Yale has played better under a spur of this sort and this has been, perhaps more prominently than anything else, the distinguishing feature between Harvard and Yale teams. Admitting that in the end the fact of Pennsylvania's goal will be a source of profit to Yale, what effect will it have on Harvard? The team has seen Yale's weak points and knows that today she can be scored against. There is danger that the players may forget that the conditions may be very different at the end of two weeks. The point to be remembered is that Harvard has as much time for improvement as Yale and that every effort should be put forth to equal and surpass the work that is sure to take place in Yale's secret practice. There is a growing spirit in the University of confidence in the team and there is confidence on the part of the team in the students and the team must have confidence in itself but in no case must the feeling be allowed to become overconfidence. If our men have a feeling that last Saturday's game has any reason in it for letting up on the hard, persistent, determined work it will prove the fatal mistake of the year. Always about this season the team passes a crucial point where it seems either to get its second wind or to lose its wind for good. This year the students feel that this crucial point has been or will be passed in safety and from this time there must be unity of spirit in students and players. Saturday's game does not immediately concern us-we are considering Springfield. The best mood for every one of us from now till the end of the game is one of determination rather than of confidence, for there can be no such thing as over determination.
