like to see every boy whether hes top notch hockey player or just a regular run have an opportun ity to play One way or another all the kids should be given a chance to play either via the school

Smoke Rings triumph possible last spring What this corner would like to see Is Aurora have three teams bantam midget and ju venile Newmarket should have similar squads They could play against each other in the North York League then when it comes to the the best players from both towns could be welded into one unit If Au rora say has a good team then Newmarket sends its best down there for the
