The editor Of the Standard in the above

Through some misunderstanding OF dates
the foot ball team which was to play the
st Johns Seniors was not on hand, so
picked lot of boys, with twenty minutes
practice entered the grdiron to defend the
honors of Bedding. The Standard man
here makes a grave error as the team
picked from this city did not contain but
one boy who had ever played on the High
school team here. he being Ven Wilder,
a young man who W juld probably weigh
los pounds, and not one of the team
would weigh as pounds. as was stated
by the Standard as the average weigh.
and also in referring to the Grand Rapids
Bedding game the Standard gave the
score as ] ! to 0 in favor Of Grand Rap
ids. which should have been as Belongs
favor. Another great mistake was If
stating that the same teams played
in both games. for the truth of the
matter is that not one Of either team en-
tered into the other game.
