PRETTY POOR! the cold weather had something to do with the bad showing made by the Varsity, but that was only partly the cause. The real reason lies deeper. It is the same thing that has troubled Sewanee teams since the beginning of athletics at the place, and until it is eradicated we can never hope to turn out a really first-class team. In common slang it is big-head, and however the teams of the past may have been afflicted, the baseball nine of '97 has its fair share.
