sity? Yes it did; we actually wiggled
out of our seats, but we failed to hear
a note from the Varsity band in res-
ponse to the efforts of the Marines.
Instead, they marched across the field
playing the Victors and then paraded
back as much as to ay "what do you
think of that? Ain't we the berries?"
It would not hurt us to respect the
opposing team in the same generous
spirit as did the Marines. It creates
a good feeling and encourages people
to think in the right channel. Then
~hurrah for the Wolverines and let us
hope that after the battle Saturday,
regardless of their crippled condition,
they will still fly the colors of victory.
