The football game of Saturday showed what good can be done by a week's training directed intelligently to the points of weakness in the team. Although Amherst put up a much poorer game than Dartmouth did a week before, and indeed, was unaccountably weak in a part of the line, yet Harvard's victory, easy thoug it was, was due in large measure to the life and team-work which the men put into the play.

It does not detract from the credit due to the members of the team to say that the University fairly expected that as much improvement as was shown in Saturday's game would be made. On the other hand the University did its duty in turning out in good numbers to see the game. The result shows what can be accomplished when everybody does his part, whether of playing or of looking on, faithfully.
