Monday at Thor- old they lost by an 8-3 score. Fri- day, playing the final game at the Oshawa Arena, they held the rivais ta even terms in a hard fought game, the score 6-6. Thus 3they were finally eliminated after ia fine showing and under many difficulties. Sponsored by the Lions Club with Moe Breslin as coach, the local lads, with no home town rînk and no ice on which to prac- tice, put up a fight which has been the talk of thie whole town and district and they have amply demonstrated the need for a local rink if hockey is ta flourish in coming seasons. More than 500 Bowmanville fans lined the seats and raised lusty hullabaloo at Oshawa Arena hoping the Midgets would over- came the five goal lead held by Thorold after the first game. Bowznanville had the better in- dividual players but did flot play their positions and execute team play as did Thorold. At the end of the flrst half, the Midgets had the edge by a 3-1 score, but Thorold evened it in the second and the final bell found the count ail square for the game. The goals scored by the Midgets were: 1, Dadson- Hooper; 2. Hooper-Sturrock; 3. Sturnock-Tighe; 4. Hooper; 5. Tighe, 6. Cowle-Woodward. The team: goal, Rowe; defence, Cowle, Tighe; centre, Hooper; wings, Sturrock, Dadson; alter- nates, Woodward, Cattran, Lobb, Hassilton and Lemon. They presented them with a wool peace.
