From now on the referee will allow all
goals that are made during the playing
period until the gong rings. Failure or the

gong will not remove the goal that has
been made after the actual playing time
Bill Bannons goal tending is OF the
best. In two games he has stopped l3l
out Of 135 shots for the cage, which is an
unusual record. II would seem that his
defense is none too good, for this Is an
average OF 66 drives at him each game.
Clinton and Worcester will play two

be big crowds at each game
II is suggested that with Menard. Ley
