Although the scholastic football

October 10.
On this date the Crimson and
White eleven will travel to Me-
tuchen to lock horns with the rep
resentative eleven of that school.
The Metuchen-Amboy contest will
be the first football game a local

While comparatively young Coach
Waddell is doing what a veteran

call for material was issued a group
of forty-eight ambitious young men

will be capable of holding its own
against opponents in their class. The

versity star should be encouraged by
all.
The playing of a game with Me-
tuchen will further promote the in
ter-town rivalry which existed De-
tween various Amboy and Metuchen
baseball and football teams In the
past. There is a probability of AM

The last practice session of the

Az this time the coach instructed ms
