The Fernwood Big Five OF Brook

on Saturday night. This combina-
ton to date has played such teams
as the Assumption Crowns, Bay

defeated both the Strollers and the
Crowns. the latter in a hard fought
game at Brooklyn on Tuesday night,
the final finding the two teams
separated by one point.
IL the opposition on Saturday
night puts up nearly as good n
game as the Amboy team furnished
the Brooklyn fans in their game
against the Assumption Crowns on
Tuesday night, local fandom surely
will be satisfied, but the majority
OF the teams booked TO appear here
play professional ball. Local fans
do not enjoy watching a game play
ed according to professional rules,
so amateur rules are used. and for
this reason the game becomes one
sided. IL Is best. therefore. to book
teams playing the amateur game or
play according to professional rules.
