...football games. But why should athletic enthusiasm be confined to football? The spring sports are just as representative of the University and deserve just as loyal and spontaneous support. If we are gradually coming to look upon occasions such as the Yale baseball game as opportunities to watch a good game and criticize the players, it is time for a reaction. We should realize that a handful of men following a band and a cheering section of a few rows of seats are not conducive to brilliant playing.

Both the four-oars did light work, the university boat taking a two-mile...
...present the squad is in good condition and the order is generally supposed to be settled, barring accidents. The crew has more than two weeks before the race and in this time should continue to improve and develop into winning form. The University feels that the crew has the material and the coaching which will assure a victory, and the men who leave today should feel that they have the confidence of the whole University behind them. An opportunity for a tangible expression of this confidence is offered by the cheering this afternoon in the Square...
