WHERE THERE WAS NO HOPE.

Would that we had more than congratulations to offer the Harvard men who made such a showing against all odds in the Intercollegiates. They followed Friday's surprises with still greater surprises and now, though we had had no hope of a place as good as second, we hear rumors of dissatisfaction because we did not win. This spirit of "never mind the chances, fight!" has been characteristic of Harvard teams this year and is a spirit that will carry us far toward future victories. Therefore, the essence of congratulations!

The only adverse criticism to be offered is in view of the absence of any demonstration of support in the way of cheering in the face of well organized cheering by the visiting colleges. Our own field and with the team overcoming all adds, the absence of Harvard spirit was noticeable.
