HOOP CHAMPIONSHIP

Our guests and opponents will be the New Brunswick Champs rep- resenting Ccnierville Lcgionaires and the Cape Breton All Stars who were the winners in the Nova Scotia lop.

Basketball is the ‘number one spectator sport in the United Sta- tes and is catching on well in sev- eral centres in Canada. The last time a Senior team played here in this league was in 1947 when the New Waterford Strands were the opponents of the Navy spon-
