Mr, John Sutter of Clinton was
'elected president for •the coming

least three more teams are expect
ed to file their entries within the
time limit, namely Atwood, Gerrie,
and Kippen.
The league will be divided into
two sections as formerly, with play-
offs betwee ntbe winners of each
section.
It was generally thought the'
there would be a change in 1114 re-
sidence rule but it was voted to
keep the same rules as last season
Since the trophy wars pat up for
competition by Leo Stephensua of
Woburn It has been won by Wet
ton, Walton, Wilithrop, Walton,
and St. Columban, in thet order, •
One of the problems of the lea-
gues officials has not been to get
entries but rather to keep them
down to a minimum and yet )take
a real competition out of t. Te do
this they have had t'o restrict' the
entries to Huron and Perth. While
this hits cut down tae number of
teams' in the league it 'has had a
tendency to build up a epirw of
friendly rivalry amongst these
towns and villages. Each year the
league hae gained in popularity utt
til it now s one of the main sport-
ing enterprises in this bectlou.
