TROUBLE BREWING
 WITH H. s. SQUAD
School Issues Order Requiring
 Waivers on Injuries

Disruption threatens the High school football team as a result of an order issued yesterday at the school that all players and candidates for places on the team must sign waivers agreeing not to hold the school liable for injuries sustained on the football field
 The boys made known their objec- tions al the meeting held yesterday afternoon called for the purpose of explaining what would be required of them, one of their number suggesting that a series of benefit dances be held with which to establish a fund, since the High school is unwilling to care for the injured players. This sugges- ton was downed. The players and candidates did not cease to make known to the representatives of the school administrator who were present that they do not approve of the pro- cedure, and today ever greater criti- cism is being heard
 AS far as can be ascertained there has never been an agreement, written or otherwise, between the players and the school. In a number of instances medical attention has been furnished the boys and the school stood the ex- pense. This, Principal l.. P. Slade eN- plained,, was done voluntarily since the school is liable for no such pay ment.
 Almost without an exception, those who are playing on the team and those who are candidates-represen some 50 young men-are without means of their own and in a majority of instances the payment of a doctors bill would work a hardship. I.a in h a;S ola nf ha teams stars. They do not feel that their parents should be called upon for the payment of a sum of money as a result of an injury that they might sustain while upholding the glory of the Red and Gold. They argue that they risk painful and serious injury and they feel that the school admins trarion should be willing to meet them half way.
 It will not be surprising if the squad loses at least a few of its men as result of the new ruling. The ef- feet of the order upon their parents will result, they fear, in the refusal of their parents to sanction further participation in High school football. The consent of the parents is neces- sary and they, too, must sign the waiver agreeing not to hold the school lia ble for injuries sustaine ed.
 One of the indignant members of the squad pointed out to the Herald that the Nutmeg club and other foot ball organizations are paying their players an average of $50 each for each game. The school players work, and willingly, for nothing. Yet the charge for the Nutmeg contests, in ordinary games, is not as great as the regular charge for the High school games. They feel that. without drain of salaries on the gate receipts, at least a little might be laid aside with which to care forlthe boys should they be so unfortunate as to be injured ln battle.
