    The result of the big game on November 14th, at Williamsport,
was, of course, disappointing to State, but when defeated let us not
be ashamed to own up to it. Dickinson won because they dis
played better teamwork, and throughout the game they played
hard, fierce foot ball. Every man on the State team played for all
that was in him, but they did not seem to have that fierce helping
spirit which Dickinson displayed to a marked degree, and therein
was the cause of our defeat. It is now up to the team and coaches
to get together and defeat W. and J.
However, what helps to console State men and the team for
their defeat at Williamsport was the magnificent spirit displayed
by the student body. Throughout the game they yelled con
tinuously. Between the 1 valves, led by the band, they marched up
and down the field, singing and waving pennants. When the
game was over and the touchdown which sounded the death knell
of State’s hopes had been severed, they swooped down on the
players and carried them off the field, exactly as if they had been
victorious.
All honor to the State spirit!” May it live long and prosper!

Will sound like—well
