...spirit with which the college has looked upon the Mott Haven team this year has unfortunately lacked much that spontaneous gratitude which the college owes to the team. There seems to have been a general impression that Harvard was going to come out on top in track athletics simply because it did so well last year. The fact seems to have been lost sight of that while Harvard has lost some of her best men since last year, the standard of track athletics in the other colleges has been distinctly increasing.

But the thing which was most noticeable about the Harvard team was the entire lack of knowledge about base-running. Only two bases were stolen, and in a number of cases the men were caught napping, and thrown out. This is a serious lack, and will do a great deal of harm if it is not remedied very early. It is the same fault which has been apparent...
