ft was decided for the purpose of a competition that teams be
arranged in such geographical districts as might be convenient,
such divisions to be decided by the Committee after the entries
have been received.
For places where gate money can be obtained, such money, after
deducting all necessary expenses, must be sent to the general
fund. This fund will be applied by the Committee to aid.the
expenses of teams travelling from a distance.

are invariably to be admitted free.
