Q ol T15QQ1f'e1c1Q, T T hitnriala HE GLQRY of our 1914 football season has not yet waned, and although in later times it may fade, it will never bec-ome entirely obliterated. ' There was introduced a new era in Maine football annals when the Colby eleven rolled up a score of one hundred and twenty-three points against its three Maine rivals, without once having its goal line endangered. There were three great incentives leading the team on to victory: Colby's honor, Coach Ful- ler's skill, and Captain Fraser's inspiring personality. This combination filled the men ofthe team with such a fighting spirit and enthusiasm that the com- petitors for the championship banner found them an irresistible force. Coaches Fuller and Cohn are responsible to a great extent for our successful team, but in the indomitable courage and remarkable insight of Ginger Fraser, we have another potent factor. Always anxious to be in the fiercest of the scrimmage, even when in such a physical condition that a man with anything but an iron will would have been in the hospital, Ginger forced his way for gain after gain re- sulting in victories for the Blue and Gray, and established a name for himself all over the Eastern States that reliects nothing but credit upon him and upon his Alma Maier. XN'e are proud of the Maine Champions of 1914 and their able leaders, and hope that this team has paved the way for more championships in the near future. HE STUDENT body has a very commendable spirit. lt has nobly sup- ported all of the athletic activities and at the same time has fallen in with the ideal of our beloved president, Arthur I. Roberts, who stands strongly for scholarship first. There have been no strong regrets expressed by the students when good athletes with poor preparation have been refused admis- sion and have gone to rival c-olleges. The growing tendency of the college is strongly in favor of clean athletics, a11d better scholarship. It is such backing as this by the student body that is putting the standing of Colby on a higher plane from year to year. L 14
