There seems to be lack of interest in football in the Westerly High school at the present time. The excuse is made that as there is no interscholastic league there is no occasion for foot ball team. This is answered by the fact that there has been a league only during the past two seasons, and that prior to that time Westerly was we'll represented on the gridiron and there Is no valid reason why a good team should not be available the coming season.
