Very few mentions of this league.

SUBURBAN PARKS ASSOCIATION. - The Age (Melbourne, Vic. : 1854 - 1954) - 2 Mar 1934

trove.nla.gov.au trove.nla.gov.au

Earliest mentions begin in 1934 as a two-grade league: A-Grade for under-20's and B Grade for under-17's. The A-Grade teams were Brunswick City, Brunswick United, Central Brunswick, North Carlton Presbyterian, St. Paul's (Ascot Vale), Thornbury (District) Juniors, West Essendon Juniors. The grand final was going to be St Paul's - Thornbury Juniors but nothing about the game was reported.

For 1935, the A-Grade was for under-19's and B-Grade was for under 16's. The A-Grade teams were Albion Rovers, Ascot Rovers, Ascot Stars, Brunswick City, Doncaster Rovers, Thornbury District.

But after McKenzie's 38 goals, nothing appears on Trove. This is probably one for the library.

Have had a search of Trove using similar rather than exact same information and cannot find any other refs to this event. The "exact" search, as others have mentioned, also finds very little about the club and league. Given the way such goal tallies are treated in that era, it is extraordinary that no other comment has been found.

In my opinion, the McKenzie 38 goals event should not be entered into the main list until more specific proof is found.
Should it be entered in italics at bottom of the list as a footnote and noted as unproven, or left off list altogether ?
 
Its not open age (as restricted to players 19yrs and under)
so would remain a footnote

Whenever someone in the bush/mallee/sticks kicked 20+ there
was always a rush to sign them and a paper trail

i guess charles never went further than park football

I think it's very likely it's the same person. They look rather similar, and he was born in 1918, so would be 17 at the time he was at Trinity Grammar School (1935), which would be about right. I can't find a middle initial for him from his Army records or Vic BDM:

C. R. Campbell got a permit to go to Collegians in 1936 (from Trinity Grammar): https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/11030521

This has C. Campbell (Collegians) training with Hawthorn in 1940 - that was the year Colin Campbell joined Collingwood from Preston: https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/11309278 (3 July 1940)

CAMPBELL FOR COLLINGWOOD - No Preston Clearance - The Argus (Melbourne, Vic. : 1848 - 1957) - 16 May 1940

trove.nla.gov.au trove.nla.gov.au
Edit: That makes it look unlikely then! Unless there was another C. Campbell from Collegians around at that time, the fact one was training at Hawthorn in July (by then Colin Campbell was playing senior football for Collingwood) should rule out the possibility!

In 1944 C. Campbell transferred from Hawthorn to St Kilda: https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/206780050
Colin Campbell was said to be a promising recruit at St Kilda in 1945 (from Hawthorn): https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/245338381

So it seems he was at both Hawthorn and St Kilda without playing senior football. Definitely wasn't the chap who played with Collingwood.

I suspect this may be the 1935 Trinity Grammar footballer:

I think the F Braun (1955 27/26 goals) score that we've got is wrong, it does appear in later NSW records
and in the 3aw book ,however, Jim Braun didn't play that year and there was no sign of F Braun in the '55 records
