Carver, Delano, Green Isle, Plato, St. Boni, Waconia, Watertown, Young America
Eight clubs: Carver Black Sox, Delano Athletics, Green Isle Irish, Plato Blue Jays, St. Boni Saints, Waconia Lakers, Watertown Red Devils and Young America Cardinals.
Seven of them are Class B in District 7. The Waconia Lakers are Class A, Section 2, which is the top grade the association awards, and they play here anyway.
The names read like a map of the country between the Twin Cities and the Crow River: Green Isle, Plato, Young America, Watertown. Small places, close together, which is exactly the density a town ball league needs.
High Cheese gives a league its own address with the schedule, the table and the rosters on it, rather than one tab inside an association covering forty-seven leagues.
