Otto "Kaiser" Kahle was added to the league for the 1924 season...

Next up are Lloyd Johnson (ifspuds), Alan Liao (potatoman), "Woody" Woodworth (woody5254) and my own first ancestor in the league David Wickersham in 1925...

1925 begins the first season where many, many ancestors begin to flow into the league... except for a few seasons where there will only be one player, every season throughout the 20's has 2-4 new ancestors joining up...

and so begins the glory days of the TWB...
