TO PLAY IN NORTH.

i m*m —— I Stratford Soccer Club's Decision. j ADVANTAGE TO TARANAKI: DISADVANTAGE TO STRATFORD I I To form a northern division with the three New Plymouth teams was decided on at the an- j nual meeting of the Stratford Asi sociation Football Club last night, j i i The Taranaki Football Association j j decided at its annual meeting recently to play the Julian Cup competition i in two divisions, leaving it to the i Stratford club to decide which division I it would play in. As there were already five teams in the southern division and only three J in the northern, it was up to the j Stratford team to join up with the J New Plymouth teams to make a decent tournament for them, said Mr.

|H. Gibbs. • j The soutli would have four more I matches, said Mr. R. Jackson, who ' | was of opinion that it would be betJ ter for Taranaki Soccer for Stratford ,' to play in the north, but more advanj tageous for the team itself to play in ! the south. j Mr. Brown suggested that an extra : I round could be played in the north if ! necessary. i When put to the meeting, a motion that the Stratford team should play ! in the northern division was carried ! unanimously. ! _
