AT the mass meeting in Alumni Hall last night
Professor Nettleton and Frank Butterworth ad-
dressed the undergraduates. Professor Nettle
ton said in part:
This year a good many men, on looking over
comparative scores feel somewhat discouraged
at the outlook for victory. This is an entirely
wrong attitude to take. It has always been
characteristic of Yale that her men have stood
behind the team through thick and thin, in time
or need, with the result that, although some-
times their teams have been considered Inferior
they have snatched victory from apparent de-
feat by stirring the men to greater exertion by
the manifestation of their loyalty and devotion
In closing. he said victory is looked for and
may be greatly desired. but a spirit OF honor
VIII be maintained above all else Although
football is being played under new rules the old
rules of loyalty, pluck and honor will never
cease at Yale
Frank g. Butterworth a former fIIlback and
coach at Yale, said:
Only in times of trial can you distinguish the
Yale man. His devotion and spirit of never
die are characteristic. The great Yale Spir-

that II has become almost q hackneyed topic is
nevertheless. all there and IL is this spirit which
supports the team. In my opinion we have a
team which will fight TO the last man and with
the support of the rest OF the college win
team can do ten times as we'll when stirred by
show of confidence and loyalty on the part OF
her followers. and 1 only want TO urge every
one who possibly can to go to Princeton next
saturday and help the team win that game
The last mass meeting before the Princeton
game was held in Alumni Hall tonight The
songs and cheers sounded we'll and should be a
