1934-35 California Hockey League season

This was the 1934-35 California Hockey League season. Three teams, all based in the Los Angeles area, competed in the league, and the Hollywood Millionaires won the championship. The local newspapers referred to the league as a professional competition, and were rather erratic in reporting the game results.
