ROBERT n. YOUNG,
"F. W. BOLGTANO.
Nv. c. THATCHER.

The section fight is one that pre-
sents tangle hard to fathom. and even
a good guesser Is at sea. The writer
asked ten different fans. all OF whom are
good judges and close followers Of the
amateur games. which team would cop
the section B series. and received FIVE
different answers. Many people look TO
the Independence League or the Mar
Quette League 10 land the flag, and the
writer believes the fight VIII be between
these two. with the Bankers League a
hot contender and possibly winner over
one or the other of these two teams.
There is no use denying the fact that
the section E clubs are well balanced
and that the fight will be a thriller.
