from the league the source of all the trouble seemed to be the fact that although everton had a good team at the start of the season they insisted on signing up elmar white fred kentner and tinney masale from th ex- lome farmers team with these three additions everton waa a real threat for first place and the millionaire wem a little afraid ot losing thrlr position in second place thus with reelings run ning high the first game between ever ton and millionaires a as a real battle lth several dispute and arguments evertorr won the game 31 and the millionaires promptly protestod on tm brounaalhat fred kotner had been signed on the everton team without the consent of the executive everton re turned the protest against millionaire b demanding why the two georgetown player varej and

lome farmers dropped out there was only enough teams to have two game a night so oordle cook scraped together a team to take their place against york road in the second game of the night this selfstyled suicide squad made things interesting for york road and it was only through careless- 1 ness that york road won 42 the suicide squad had enough substitutes in the players box to form a league of their own and under the expert coaching of mr cook might go far herble woods took a night off from higher company to join in the fun and played every posi tion on the team except goal at

fans were sorry to hear the final bell ring rockwood and lome rifles were the last teams to play and the army waa just a little bit too heavy and rough for the rockwood team who took a 40 trim ming j laverty of rockwood received a nasty crack on the head and had to withdraw from the game saunders for rockwood broke up many a rush and saved rockwood from worse defeac this was the poorest game of the night and not many fans stayed to see it finished out much amusement was caused among the spectators by the punishment one of the fairer sex heaped on the head of a cer tain york road player every
