Just now we are facing a critical problem in the baseball situation, a problem particularly emphasized by the last three defeats. The situation is by no means hopeless, as many undergraduates evidently believe, but it is one that requires the attention of every man interested in the development of a team that will win from Yale when the series is played in June. That the team has a great deal of latent ability has been made evident by the playing in earlier games, but that this ability is not being utilized was clearly shown by the contest on Saturday.

...musical clubs. But what a difference in attitude if the afflicted one happens to be a well-known athlete! Immediately there is universal mourning and the football team, crew, or nine, which was so promising a few weeks before, starts for New London or New Haven in an apparently hopeless condition. At this point it might be parenthetically stated that the cause of the commotion is himself considered to be very little to blame. Let us proceed one stage further.
