The victorious football team was given a warm reception by the members of the Union last evening. R. C. Evarts 1L., acted as chairman and A. F. Pickernell '14 and J. R. O. Perkins '14 entertained with several original lyrics. Captain Storer spoke of the excellent support that was given the team at Princeton and of the courage that the undergraduate enthusiasm instilled into the team before the Yale game.
