Their Say in To-day's Times.
To guard against any misrepresenta-
tions, it is desirable that the reason should
be made public why the football game
to have been played by the teams of the
Virginia Polythenic Institute and the ST.
Adams Academy, at Radford, on Octo-
Der IL, was not played. St. Alban's
Academy has upon it's team gentlemen
who have made almost national reputa-
tion us football players while at other in
situations. This year they have one gen
tleman, who for several years was IL star
player at the Naval Academy ut Annapo
lis another who has been II leading play
Ell at the University of North Carolna
also two graduates from the University
of Virginia. and two others from Ratford
and vicinity, whose presence made ques.
tionable the right that the team should
be called st. Adams Academy team.
TO offset these players the V. =. l. de.
termlned TO play their physical director
from the University of Virginia, who is
an old Blacksburg man, and is attending
lectures at the V. p. l. Under no other
circumstances would tile V. p. | permit
or have they permitted, their trainers or
any other than bona-fide students to par
ticipate in regular match games with
other institutions But in spite of the
personnel of their own team, ST. Alban's
refused to play unless the V. p. /. with
drew this one man, although they pro-
posed to retain their six men, who occu-
pied questionable position-to say the
least-as students at ST. Albans
Upon this refusal of st. Alban' to play,
the V. p l. team, although they had
driven long distance for the game, af-
ter waiting reasonable time, withdrew
from the field.
The V. Z. |. football team has never
been stronger than it is this year, and the
presence Of its trainer upon the team was
only as protest against semi. profession
alism in college athletics. 1t is mani
testify unfair that such an aggregation of
players as St Alban's team should style
itself i'm academy team of amateurs.
