PAGE EIGHT INTERCOLLEGIATE RUGBY GAME AT ALEXANDRA PARK SATURDAY THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1928 Oshawa Colle Cobourg te Clashes With . in Scheduled Game | ~ Which Should Draw Large Crowd though Oshawa's Intermediate O.RF.U. team is scheduled to pros vide the excitement up in Niagara Falls this Saturday, Oshawa will nevertheless be able to see a smart little exhibition of the autumn game here at Alexandra Park on that day when Cobourg Collegiate Institute brushes up against Oshawa Collegiate in a regular Central Ontario Inter- scholastic Rugby Football Union me. his will be the second game of the season for the Oshawa Collegiate boys to play at home and inasmuch as the first game played here, against Peterboro Collegiate, was at a time when many other attractions drew the crowds elsewhere, for some who regularly follow the Interscholastic game this will be their first contest to see of the season. When Peter- boro Collegiate played here, it will be remembered that the championship lagrosse game between Brampton and Oshawa was being played in Bramp- ton while a ladies softball game at the Collegiate grounds also proved a coynter-attraction. Saturday, with the only other at- traction being a soccer game, the rugby game up in Niagara Falls which is not likely to see too large a following from the Motor City, en account of the distance, if the wea- ther is favourable a large erowd should turn out at Alexandra Park to see this little nip and tuck affair, Anyone who thinks smart rugby and exciting rugby isn't played in Interscholastic circles, will be due for a pleasant surprise if they pass through the portals at Alexandra Park on Saturday and catch a few glimpses of the Collegiate youths in action. And by Collegiate youths we mean both Cobourg boys and Oshawa Collegiate boys. : Cobourg Collegiate today is a sur- prising eaxmple of the advancement a school--or any organization, can ' 2 once it decides to go in for the ridiron game, Three years ago Co- ourg started into the game and al- though they knew absolutely nothing about it to start with, they were will- ing to learn and showed this by the persistent game they put up against Oshawa Collegiate despite the fact that they were being defeated by 8 margin, large ; wo years ago the same story was repeated although the defeat was hardly as severe, while last year Osh- awa again won but they had to battle all the way for their victory. This year the two teams were evenly bal- anced and Oshawa, in the first game of the season in Cobourg, barely managed to stagger out with a 10 to B victory in their favour, As they left the field after the game down in Cobourg, Cobeurg promised them that if they were at full strength for the game up in Oshawa that they would take the first fall out of Oshawa that Cobourg has in all time, Whether they will live up to their promise or not will be seen Saturday on the good old battle ground at Alexandra Park, Oshawa Collegiate. is fit as a fiddle for the game and after- their 23 to 0 crushing at Peterboro's hands down in the §ife Lock City last Saturday, the entire team is out to return to the good graces of the school to keep in the running for the group title, 1f Oshawa Collegiate loses any of her remaining games this: season while her rivals, Peterboro CI. continue their winning streak, the league championship and the right to en- ter he championship, play-offs will o to Peterboro.
