Certainly everybody hopes to see an increase of enthusiasm during the coming season, but the realization of such a hope depends almost entirely upon the action of the Athletic Committee in the appointment of the temporary captain.

However annoying the persistent opposition of the weather may be, the enthusiasm of the association is apparently not to be so easily dampened.
