Bramp- ton, Oshawa, St. Catharines and Torontos will comprise the senior group. ; The decision made by St. Simon's wag regretted by the O.A.L.A. offi- cials, but under the circumstances there was nothing to do but accept it.

The prop merger with the Oakwood Grads was not completed and the Grads will proceed with their plans to play in the O.A.L.A. intermedice series. Scarcity of players and lack of finances proved the decid- ing factors in St. Simon's decision to withdraw. The drawing up of the scheuuid occupied most of the time at last night's meeting of the 0.A.LA. The senior campaign will open un May 24 and close on Aug. 5. This will give the Ontario senior cham- pions a chance to compete for the Mann Cup this year. irouping Trouble The Maitland intermediates have heen given until May 24 to deciuo on grouping, It was first propos- ed that the Maitlands be grouped with Brantford, Fergus and George- town but the local club objected to this arrangement because of the travelling involved. They favoreu a group composed of Maitlands, Oshawa, Oakwood Grads and Oak- ville, but there were objections to this also. It is expected. that the matter will be straightened out satisfactorily to all concerned in the course of a few days. Reinstate Players Four players, all members of the Weston senior team, suspended last year for failing to complete the season, were granted reinstatement. The complete team was placed in good standing at the annual con- vention, but the players must ap- ply individually for their personal cards. The president was given power to deal with any other re- instatement applied for. The secretary was instructed to forward a letter of sympathy to the relatives of the late Sir Wm, Otter, cne of the first presidents of or- ganized lacrosse.
