Such a team deserves final success, and its exhibition today strengthens our hope for a victory in the third and decisive contest...
...their undergraduate lives, most of them to leave this world of comparative comfort for one of true hardship and struggle. They have handed over their College sinecures to 1914 and are about to tackle real labor on which more than mere outward success will depend.

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...
