A Dangerous Lead " The Highbury club will, I faney, look back upon their telegram to the League as an error, but the primary offenders were the League Management Committee, who, by their refusal to release the Man-

chester City players for Scotland, gave a dangerous lead to their clubs.

At all events, it is now written in the record book that a power- ful club, with the rich sources of the Arsenal, can do its duty to its country, and still win an away Lengue match against des perately earnest opponents. Let us hear no more of these unworthy appeals.
