Bawmanville b6sketbail teams broke even with Cobourg i two scheduled gaines played here Sat- urday evening. The "At Home" the nlght before didn't seem ta have much effect on the senior team, defeatlng their opponents from the county-town 42-17. The Junior lads are flot as used ta staylng out so late and they were beaten 30-16. Senior (lame By defeating Cobourg Saturday the Senior boys won the league titie. This la made possible thro' the Oshawa Senior team dropping out of the league and Coboulrg hasn't suificient points ta equal Eowmanviile. The lads from down east knew it was almost a hopeless game Saturday and therefore went out with the spirit of raugh-house urging them on. Cobourg and Bowmanville have bath been noted for their excel- lent teains, bath the way they play and their sportsmanship, but aiter Saturday'a game Cobourg int ta be compared with the local boys. With stiil a llttle of their rugby training in their system, Benson, Bennett and Jones led the Co- bourg attack. As usual Siemon and Brown were high scorers for B.HS. but it was flot much of a gaine for individual scoring. Tain- blyn of Bowmanville and 0.
