I LOCAL GIRLS EARN ANOTHER VICTORY FROM COBOURG The blue and white local ladies chaiked up another victory on Monday when they counted 15 runs to Cobourg's i11 at the pub- lic school grounds. Saily Kiipatrîck on the mound paved the way for the victory by heaving superb bail throughoul the game, but the main credit must be given to the improved batting. Cobourg pitchers, Greer and Hoskin, registered oniy threel strike-outs in the struggie. Eight errors by the visitors also helped the local cause considerably. The Bowmanviiieites had four errors. The second and f ifth innings were the best for the Hunt clan, with five runs crossing the plat- ter in the former when Greer was in the box and six in the fifth when Hoskin was huriing. Cobourg opened the game with a spiurge that brought nine hît: ters into the uine-up and netted a total of five runs, but the blue shirts dug in their tocs and heid them scoreless for four of the re- maining six innings. They aiiow- ed two runs in the third and four in the fourth. The local organization is a much improved team over the oulfit that took the diamond in the first few games. One wouid neyer re- alize they were the same crew. Now thcy can ail hit weii and know what 10 do when a bail cornes bouncing toward them.
