People who say such things as that show thd players and rooters what kind of backing Rensselaer is giving its high school. Brook, that little town about onehalf the size of Rensselaer, cleared $l5O on Friday’s game. How many business men of Rensselaer ever think of attending a game? A specialtrain has been chartered by the citizens of Brook for a coming game, while the extent of the loyalty of Rensselaer citizens is allowing Students to place posters in their windows. Perhaps the playing was not top notch or theboys not in the best condition, but bhtey have a good record and still have a chance for the tournament. If you cannot support the team With encouragement or by buying a ticket, the leaat you can do i is hold your tongue. xx Mrs. H. R.
