final whistle blows.
The T~ottenville representatives
did not play last Sunday afternoon
due to the fact that the Wanderer-
Brighton eleven cancelled on Satur-

to book a team on so short notice
to take their place. The previous
Sunday the Wanderers were also
scheduled and the game was can
celled, but in this case the Lafay-

An effort is being made to book

the strongest team on the island.
Negotiations are now under way for

Teglund says he told Runyan that
he had no cash in the bank when he
issued the check but would provide
funds before 1t cleared. Then when he
found out what a poor job had peen
done on the car he stopped payment
on the paper. The check, however,
came back to Runyan with the banks
notation of mo funds"
Teglund demanded an immediate ex
animation, which was set for late IN
