Argentina - Interleague Champions

    The Argentine Championship was created by the second
dissident association: the Asociaci�n Amateurs de Football.
AFA recognizes the AAF as one of its ancestors.
    The team of AFA (or its ancestors AAF or AAAF) was called Porte�os.
But in several seasons it entered two teams: Capital and Provincia.
    AFA has not played in this tournament since 1942.  Then, it was used to 
define the Argentine Upcountry League champion.
    Mr. Hip�lito Yrigoyen, Argentine Republic president, gave the cup
Presidente de la Naci�n Argentina to the champion.
    The runner-up wins the cup Intendente Municipal de la Ciudad de Buenos
Aires Doctor Carlos M. Noel.
    The third league wins the cup Comit� Ol�mpico Argentino (COA).
    And the best upcountry league wins the cup Doctor Adri�n Beccar Varela.
