  84. 1/13 Hispano F.C. v Philadelphia Centennials at Steinway Oval 1-1 called off in 55' to be replayed ... 160 results /80 games in official record... so these two expunged would've been 164/82... still need to eliminate other games, 12/8 included as expunged would be 166/83... which Bethlehem W to eliminate? Hispano 20 results, 18 in standings... but two expungements. Hakoah # accurate at 25. Philadelphia 23 resultls, this one expunged... must be 12/8 Philadelphia not counting as well
