mater, and that's just what Roselle
will do if they go tramping off for a
weeks vacation next Tuesday and
leave the scholastic football cham
pionship of Union county an empty
honor. Roselle does not fear Rah-
way? Whaddye mean, vacation?
Railway has only played one team
that Roselle has played this season,
that being Plainfield High School.
Roselle defeated Plainfield, 80, while
Railway defeated Plainfield 40. Can
meeting Railway? On Thanksgiving
Day Railway will meet a stronger
team than East Orange or any other
school team in the State when they
will line up against the strong Alumni
team of that school. The Alumni
will consist of such players as Bracher
and McClairy, of Rutgers; Johnston,
of Union; Randolph, of Yale Fresh
men, and others as great as these.
WALTER L. WILSON.
The story we printed regarding the
refusal of the Railway eleven to play
the Roselle team, was received di-
rect from Roselle High School. Ro-
selle asserted that Railway refused
to play their eleven on the only open
date the Roselle warriors had on their
schedule. Therefore, our attitude
was that Railway should first dis
pose of the Roselle team, conten-
der for the State title right in Rah-
ways own county, before laying
claim to that honor. Perhaps the Ro-
sellians, after reading your letter,
will have something to say on the
subject relative to the postpone
ments."
