The accusation angers us at first; but how is the outsider to know how bitter each successive defeat is to a great majority of undergraduates and graduates? We conceal our disappointment under praises of the "splendid showing," and as a result each year is a repetition of the last and we have the not altogether enviable reputation of being "gentlemanly losers." Is it not time to throw aside the thin veil of easy-going optimism and to make it clearly known that nothing short of oft-repeated victories will give...
