THURSDAY, NOV. 15, 1906 EDITORIAL Surely no more opportune time than the present can be found to say a word ,on the oft-repeated but ever important subject of cheering. If any man is in doubt whether his yell has value, let him ask any player on the football team. Ask him if he does not feel a new inspiration to do his level best when he hears a ring ing,cheer come from five hundred strong throats. Ask him if he is not filled with new grit and deter mination—the kind of grit that wins victories—when the college yell comes ringing across the field. Too much emphasis cannot be laid on the value of cheering in the Dickinson . game next Saturday. Dickinson realizes this strongly, and is:making.a strenuous effort to en sure, a ~ c beering contingent at the game.. Last week's Dickinsonian, in an appeal for more cheering, said in part : "State will be at the game in full force. - She always is, and she - always cheers until the last minute of the game. Surely we TILE STATE COLLEGIAN cannot see our own team leave for Williamsport with the feeling that they must meet the eleven from State College on a field where no Dickinson songs or cheers will greet their ears, while State's warriors are being urged on to greater deeds by the thought that their fellow stu dents are with them in every move, and are watching their every effort for victory." In other years, State has not been found wanting in the support given to the team. Surely she must not this year. And yet some men for get that this support is of vital im portance on Beaver Field as well as in Williamsport. Enthusiastic, ap preciative support from the side lines every afternoon nerves the team to fast, snappy playing, and that kind of playing in practice work is sure to bring victories later on. So come out to Beaver Field to night and every night, with the feel ing that if cheering will help this team, you will do your part. Then yell, and yell again ! Yells mean victory. The Berzelius Club The Berzelius Club met last Fri day night at 8 o'clock. ' An election was held to fill the office of treas urer, B. W. Scribner being chosen. It was decided to hold regular meet ings on the second and last Fridays of every month during the college year. The main feature of the evening was Prof. Rentschler's ir structive and entertaining talk on chemical analysis and its effect on manufactured products. He spoke of the adulterations common in many manufacturing processes. The coaches at Annapolis say that Dickinson has the strongest defense of any team against which the Navy has lined up this season, and the score is additional proof.
