BY AN OLD Foary,

THE PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALLER, I am firmly convinced that the professional Association football player is still very much misunderstood. It is doubtful if the public are to blame for the misconception, as the majority of those who have no knowledge of the inner life of the game mnat acquire their information from newspapers. And the average journalist only regards the great winter sport as a means of making money... Thus apart from the reports of matches, the enterprising news-correspondent is constantly on the gui vive for any scrip of information he can obtain with reference to these paid players, who are in a sanse public men. Thus if Smith looks upon the wine whan it is red, or the ale when it is nätbrown so that
