MEETING TO DECIDE 'ON FOOTBALL FINAL (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, Sept. 4.--There will be a meeting of the executive of the Darlington football league tonight to decide where and when the next final of the league wil take place, There has been a lot 'of dissatisfaction on the part of the Bowmanville team concerning piuy- ing at Solina, owing to the fact that Enniskillen are thought to use this ground for practice and is therefore not strictly neutral. It is thought that the game will be played Saturday, either at Hamp- ton Park or someg round at Osh- awa. Wherever the game is fought out it is hoped that a better class of sportsmanship will be shown than at the last encounter. No ref- eree is perfect and being human are liable to make mistakes the same as anybody else.
