The players have all signed a new con-
tract which does not contain the ten-day

means that any player SO signed who

It was the intention Of the new organi-
cation to make further raids on the ma

out Of the question. and II must develop
its own playing material after this. It
will naturally take many years to place

impossible to draw playing material from
