The officials hope to help such players next year by registering them in recognized tennis clubs.

The first game of the Toronto Nisei Sunday League finals went. to Buzsers, 8-7, after the Busseis had led most of the way. Five runs in an error-filled eighth inning salted the game away for the winners.

The eighth inning, however, saw a complete collapse of the Bussei defense as five errors were committed^ allowing the Buzzers to score five times for the 8-7 win.
-Leaders in the winning attack were Fred Tanaka, 2 for 4, Roy
