SKOAL TO THE FRESHMEN!

The performance of the Freshman hockey team this year has been an unfailing source of gratification to the University; and its decisive victory over the Yale 1927 team was the only fitting climax for a season of remarkable success. The records show victories over most of the best teams of the preparatory school class, including St. Paul's, which had not been defeated for fourteen years,--St. Mark's, Exeter, Andover, Princeton 1927 and Dartmouth 1927.

Incidentally, it is worthy of note that this is the first Freshman major sport victory over Yale since the spring of 1922, when the Yale boat sank at New London, while it was still slightly in the lead. At that time, there was much secret rejoicing, in spite of--or on account of--the somewhat unusual circumstances; this time, however, there is nothing to prevent the Freshman team's receiving the praise that it certainly deserves.
