Their last three games agzainst the other teams in this group on their home ice were al Durham victories: 4â€"2 in Walkâ€" erton, 6â€"2 in Owen Sound, then or Monday last, 4â€"3 right in Wingham.

Durham had about as many shots on nets, but foozled them or banged them in Neath‘s pads . Schwan â€"scored the only counter in first period, and the visitors made it 4â€" 0 by end of 2nd, Tennant counted on Crawford‘s assist, and William‘s scored twice, an passes frem Bishop, and from Sargeant and y hwan. Durham was ccvering up; Inosely, and the Cubs were quick to'i take advantage of Durham‘s lapses. | In the third Schwan made it 5â€"0,\ on a pretty passing play from Williâ€" «ms and â€" Bishop, then Dean broke the ice for Durham, converting Tucâ€" ker‘s pass. Garvie counted No,. 6 tor the Cubs on passes from Cairns and Tennant, then Durham‘s only sccring splurge ensued, when â€" Casâ€" sidy banged home Dean‘s pass and Moses counted on G.
