Fairy Tales players, Coach Goodhue is bound to come up with a contending team in the nine-team group. Exeter will be a strong team this year. They have played Int- ermediate "A" and Senior "B" the past two seasons, The players brought in to play that class of hockey, and took up permanent residence in Exeter, are now elig- ible to play "homebrew" hockey, Forest Lakesides have played "A" hockey, and with some of last year's, Ontario Juvenile champions from that town, are also expected to be strong. Zurich always comes Up with a crowd-pleasing team, while Lucan has made great strides in hockey 'since the new arena was built there. Point Edward and Blackwell no doubt will be good teams. Ildertol has been in this group for some years. Little is known about Hensall, but manager Smith is trying hard to bring Hen- sell back into the sports picture in this district. Parkhill had origin- ally entered a team but withdrew' before the schedule was drawn up. Kinsmen Club Enters Busy Season Many Projects Getting Underway Treasure.
