fifteen years and enter a team under
the 1ia411of Tltlrott�s of'. Tugker-.
istnrtiia' This team will :be m6,de up of
the best players of 'the • old three rival
teams and younger players within
the district. If the enthusiasm which
was shown at the meeting holds

ball will be
fetrt-ball,will•be seen in this district
It was decided to start training as

ing called for Friday, May first, and
