Mere reverses of fortune should never shake the strength of the support given to the team, but a loss of confidence may have that effect. It is to be hoped that today's game will leave no doubt any where that our team is one which every Harvard man may be proud to stand up for.

But we doubt whether such a restriction as is imposed by this latest vote will not give the impression of being dictated more by considerations of mere "policy" than by absolute considerations of right and wrong...
