Bantams defeat Juniors In exnîoition soccer play at Peel Park on Wednesday, May il the bantam Crown, Industrials defeated the more experienced Junior teami 5-1. To counteract the juniors fast running forward line the bantams set up and executed a very effective defensive sys- tern using the off-side rule to full advantage whicli com- pletely snuffed out any defensive junior thrust in the first haîf while the younger bantamn front five were creat- ing havoc at the other end which resulted in a 4-0 score in favour of Crown Industrial at the interval. A goal by Robbie Frendo- Cumbo early in the second hiaif put the juniors on the scoreboard but in the dying minutes of the gamne, with the juniors defense tiring, the bantains popped in another. Scoring for the bantamis were Dave Cmni with two <(one fromn the penalty shot), John Longmnuir, Stuart Craig and Steve Gallagher. In a previous garne the juniors camne out on top by a score of 4-3.
