Sir:-Will you kindly publish the fol-
lowing statement in answer to charges
of roughness which was published in
the newspapers regarding the rough
ness at the National Guard-2nd Infan-
try game at Moiliih Field last Satur-
day. / wish to make the statement
that Dr.: Peden was not slugged from
all sides by End Infantry men during
the game.
In the heat of the struggle, Rasquin
of the End Infantry and DR.. Peden of
the National Guard eleven naturally
became excited when they were in
jured and both lost their heads in that
case, and am sure that both players
regret their hasty actions.
l have known Rasquin for some
time, and know what he has always
been an advocate Of clean sport.
was acquainted with his work while
he was with the strong Remington
Yost team of Bridgeport, Conn, and
his record there was clean. Iknow
that Rasquin will be willing to apollo
gize for his argument and l hope that
whena the teams meet again that
friendship will not cease.
Regarding Peden, Moore and Aus
tin, the boys at Shafter have moth
ing to say On that subject as the three
players are members of the National
Guard The man who started the story
regarding their eligibility has not been
located as yet, and 1 am sure that
the Shafter boys will admit that they
were defeated fairly They have no
alibi, but will wait until the next game
when they will make an effort to re-
gain their lost laurels.
With best wishes for good season
in football, remain
A LOVER OF THE GAME.
