will mean kaput for the ten teams the club sponsored last year known as the town league we dont need to point out how much fun the 110 odd boys from- this district had last winter playing in the league not only did they gain practical exper ience of the fine points of hockey but they were taught sportsman ship and the value of team work these last mentioned items could prove fn- valuable in later life and alone justify the existence of the league best thing about the whole idea was that parents knew where johnny was and just what he was doing no concern was felt when he was under the capable hands of the leagues coaches we could go orf at some length and give some pertinent illustra tions of what we mean but feel it isnt necessary the results are there for the seeing consequently
