The ethnix groups. and the immigrants from Britain would break down the fences to watch the stars from their countries perform on Canadian soil. A four-team league was estab lished--two clubs from Toronto, one each from Montreal Hamilton. World stars brought in There was the fantastic 46- year-old Stanley Matthews, the first professional] soccer player to be made a Commander of the order of the british Empire That was in 1957 There was Johnny Haynes player in England, from Ful- ham.

This didn't make the promoters rich, but the picture was cheerful enough to get them talking about expansion, an East West interlocking schedule along the lines of the Canadian Football League.
