Probably never in the history of Harvard athletics has there been greater need of a glorious victory than just at this time. The Yale game pulled down the spirit of the students to a point which it has seldom reached and had Pennsylvania beaten us it is hard to tell what might have happened. Within a week we have gone clear to the depths of misery and now a plucky set of men have brought us up again to something above our normal spirit and have saved us from a disaster which would have had its effect on the good name of the University. Every man on the field yesterday must have felt that the game which Harvard put up against Pennsylvania was one of the noblest, manliest, and pluckiest things ever seen on a football field. Only one objectionable thing happened and the man at fault amply atoned for his guilt by an apology. Pennsylvania, too, is deserving of the highest praise. Her work was perfectly straightforward football and her whole attitude was honorable and sportsmanlike. The cheering on both sides of the field was an interesting contrast to that of Saturday. Everybody must have felt a new feelling of affection for the University and a new confidence in Harvard's ability to win, as the ball was taken repeatedly down the field by the same sort of sharp, determined play with which Yale beat us Saturday. We take the greatest pleasure in giving our heartiest congratulations and our sineere thanks to the whole team; in this we feel that we shall be heartily seconded by the whole University.
