first organization meeting of the north york league which was rather a fizzle on monday night it would ap pear that stoufrville would be much better off to affiliate directly with the oba and seek entry into one of their groups be it in toronto or the lakeshore circuit hotter ball would be provided giving better experience to the local lads and public support would be better at the games should all the adjacent groups be baseball of a higher bracket stouffville might seek a bejth for the season with a bye at playoff time aurora and newmarket will pro vide the only junior teams and even they
