NO CLAIM BY RUTLAND
Until After the Game With Brattle-
boro High School.

The Rutland News of Nov, ID had
the following interesting comment on
the football championship of Vermont
high schools:
"The Rutland high school has so far
entered no claim for the state football
championship, according to Coach Har-
old /. O'Brien, butt the coach says,
after the Brattleboro game, we will be
willing to talk football with anyone in
the state
"Since the smallpox vaccination only
four men have actually been able to
scrimmage though more have been at
practice. Two of the best players on
the team are still out because of the
vaccination. Both of these men were
vaccinated the day of the last game,

after the vaccination one mans arm
is swollen up much beyond its usual
size and another mans arm has become

FAVORS BRATTLEBORO
FOR THE CHAMPION
Writer on Burlington Free Press Con.
siders That Teams Record
the Best.

The Burlington Free Press views the
high school football championship OF
Vermont as rather complicated situa-
ton but is inclined to think that Brat
tleboro high schools record is the best
although that team has not played
Vermont school. The Free Press sum
mary of the situation is as follows:
Now that the college football cham
pionship Of Vermont is out of the way,
football fans are beginning to take no
tice of the various high school teams
of the state and trying to decide the
old, old question of supremacy. This
condition exists every year although
the fans know that there is not the
remotest chance that the teams will
ever meet in actual combat to decide
the question for themselves.
Looking closer, one finds that four
teams stand head and shoulders above
the others. These are Brattleboro high
school, Rutland high school, Spaulding
high school of Barre and st. Adams
high school. A game was pending last
Saturday between Rutland and st. Al
bans but fell through as it was neces-
sary for both teams to cancel other
games in order to play. Rutland, st.
Adams and Brattleboro have won all
of the games, while Spaulding lost
only the one played with Rutland.
Rutland and Brattleboro were TO set
tie their differences next Saturday, but
the smallpox epidemic cancelled the
game. and it is doubtful if another
will be arranged this season although
ranAtnn
"Brattleboro, under the coaching Of
that old war horse Dede Stolte has de-
veloped almost from green team
and whipped some of the best teams
on the Connecticut valley, both in New
Hampshire and Massachusetts. Rut-
land has taken everything into camp
in its own district, but has not in
vaded the northern part of the state,
while the other two teams have con-
fined themselves to the northern part,
st. Adams even going over into New
York TO take the scalp of Platts-
burgh.
"Of the four, the record OF the Brat
tleboro team which lost only one game
in three years, and that to Nj. A. G.
freshmen last season, looks the best,
and while the football dope of the
larger teams is all awry this year, the
odds would be in their favor in case
of a game between them and any of
the others If they had not arranged a
game with Amherst, Mass, high school
as soon as the one with Rutland was
cancelled, il would be interesting to
watch game between them and any
of the others in this section.
"The local eleven is hopelessly out Of
the running this year They played
some good football. but were badly
beaten by both Spaulding and st. AL.
bans in two games apiece. The loss OF
two Of their star men in last Satur-
davis contest with st. Adams crippled
the team to large extent, so that il
was unable to put up its best game.
