SOCCER AT THE TRAINING COLLEGE.

TO THE EDITOR. Sir, —There vu published in your paper of to-day a letter, very protectively signed “ Undebarred,” which reveals a lack of good taste, surpassed only by a' manifest ignorance of the true facts of the situation. lam myself, as undeharrcd (by Training College regulations) from playing my own game, as are your correspondents, and it is to me that they refer as the "one student who desires to play Soccer.” This is another characteristic misrepresentation of the case. In the year 1929 I played Soccer witty ho protest from the principal of the college. I resent the imputation that suggests in this a Jack of pride in the college. No mention was ever made of the proposed college Soccer team, and the principal has never been faced with such a request. Might I suggest ■ that “ Undebarred ” should leave the protection of a pseudonym and should apply for a little pwre accurate information, before next bursting into print, from one who has never claimed to be debarred. —I am, etc., Eeio Maofablake.
