From OHA Million Colts' will be operated this season in the WOAA home- brew league. An entry has been sent in and it is expected 'that the grouping for - the team will be known today, Thursday. Not Released As Yet The Colts have not received their release from, the OHA but have decided to enter as the re- lease, is expected at any time. Last season the Clinton team wished to withdrew from the 0. H.A. but were heldup by them until it was too late to enter and Clinton was without intermediate hockey for the first time in many years. There was a great deal of bitter feeling, locally, toward the OHA for not giving the Colts their permission to go homebrew and this yearthere is a determination that Clinton will once again have a hockey team. It was expected that to obtain, a release this season would be just a formality but in a reply from the OHA to Clinton's request for a release, Bill: Hanley, business manager of the OHA, stated the matter would be taken up with the executive at the very earliest possible -time and that the Clinton team would be notified of the de- cision.
