...fair trial at Harvard. Our authorities have never consistently urged the adoption of this plan, leaving Princeton to stand alone as an advocate of the change. As a result we have had no actual demonstration of the value of the system, and can only judge it by its success in other triangular leagues.

This seems especially desirable inasmuch as one of the hardest games of the season takes place next Saturday. Everyone recognizes that organized cheering and singing is a tremendous asset toward success in any game, and certainly in the games still to be played the team has need of the strong support of the undergraduate body. The enthusiasm displayed so far is most...
