"Point System Revised in Local Hockey Setup. Henceforth, the only points which any team will count in its standing are those which it earns from another team playing in the same hockey classification. That is, only the points which Stouffville, Markham, and Lindsay intermediates receive from one another will count in the standing of these 'A' clubs. Likewise, only the points which Peterborough Legion, Peterborough Petes, Bell A.C., and Toronto Meteors make playing together will count in their standing. Bobcaygeon, being the only Intermediate 'B' club, will receive a bye into the Ontario 'B' playdowns. This plan was not the system originally set up at the convener's meeting, but recent word from the O.H.A. headquarters has changed the setup to that set out above." -Stouffville Tribune, 1949-02-03
