is for, but perhaps you don't realize just how important it is. This School sets out every year at about this time to beat Wolcott. That's what we all want to do; you and I, and Doctor Wyndham and Coach Otis and every fellow, big or little, who owes allegiance to Wyndham. To beat Wolcott we must have a whopping good team, a better team this year than last, maybe. We have a pretty stiff schedule arranged; eight games; three of them away from home; planned to bring us along slowly and surely to the final contest. When that comes along our team must be in top form, trained to the minute. That may sound easy, but it's really pretty hard. It means lots of work, work that gets a little harder day by day; it means attention to diet, strict watch on the physical condition of every man, for it's quite as easy to overtrain as to train too little; and it means putting into practice every day what you have learned the day before. That's where we come in, fellows.
"Our business is to beat Wolcott, just as it is the First Team's business. We do it—if we succeed—by helping the First to learn how. There's glory in that, fellows, lots of glory. I want you to realize it. I want you to start in with the conviction that you are doing your share to secure a Wyndham victory over Wolcott. I want you to be just as proud of being a Second Team player as you'd be of belonging to the First. When the big day comes the cheers won't be for you, maybe, but you'll know in your hearts that you deserve a share of them, and you'll be satisfied
