To the outsider Harvard's showing in the Mott Haven Games, Saturday, could not have seemed especially gratifying, but for several reason we believe that Harvard men have a right to be proud of their track team and of its captain. There is always a certain satisfaction in feeling that your team whether defeated or victorious has represented the whole strength of the University, and gone into its contests with each individual in condition to do his best. Moreover what has been accomplished this spring is to say the least more than was expected, so much had to be trusted to raw material.

Thus the new men even more than the old point winners, deserve great credit for their performances, and most of all is credit due the man whose efforts sought out and developed that material, to Captain Bigelow. His energy in the interests of the team has been untiring, and to the fact that he has had the courage of his convictions in matters of training, much of his success is due. He may well feel that the victory over Yale two weeks ago, and Saturday's good showing, are appreciated in the University, and that his season's work has by no means been in vain.
