"When the Toc H. team went to bat, the brilliant bowling of Mann quickly mowed down the wickets, his record being 8 wick- ets for 7 runs, an unusually fine bowling record.

Was Again Successful in Winning Trophy France %< Auteuil, France, July 27.--In a great finish, France yesterday on the Davis Cup for the fifth consecutive year. She beat back a determined bid by Great Lint- ain, in the challenge round, three matches to two, to assy. once more her world tennis superior- ity: It was the uncanny tennis "brains of 'little Henri Cochet which kept the cup--more bowl than cup--from crossing the Eng lish channel. In the first of the final two singles matches, Henry W. ("Bunny") Austin, of Britain had whipped the fading Basque veteran, Jean Borotra, 7T--5, 6-- 8. 3--6, 7--5 and brought the series count to two-all That left the issue squarely up to Co- chet.

Perry, in the deciding match, 6--4, 1--6, 9--7, 6--3. France thus for the fourth suc- cessive year successfully defend- ed the cup it won from the Unit- ed States, at Germantown, Pa., in 1927. Many Turned Away The Cochet-Perry match was an excellent finishing touch for the world's hard fought team classic.

OSHAWA CITY LOSE, 3 TO 1 Minus some of their star players the Oshawa City Soccer Club bowed to the Bricklayers organization of Toronto at Greenwood Park on Sag- urday afternoon by a score of three to one.

WHITBY TENNIS CLUB WON Playing at home on Saturday the Whitby Lawn Tennis Team de- cisively defeated the Cobourg team by four events to one. The only event which was carried off by Cobourg was the men's singles which was won by Irvine in a bitterly contested three set match, 6-3, 4-6, 9-7. Feltenstine, the Whitby player, was leading in the final set 4-0 but could not hold his advantage and succumbed to the steady play of his oppon- cnt. In the other events Whitby had a decided margin and did not lose a game in the Women's doubles or second men's doubles. * » * * "BIG FOUR" GAME TO-NIGHT The big game that is attracting the interest of Oshawa fans to-night is the Falcons vs. Robson Leather tilt at the Motor City Stadium. Tan- nery are fresh from their victory over the highly rated Mike's Place tcam on Thursday night, and would like to take the game to improve their position in the standing, but Falcons may have ideas of their own. The game shapes up as one of the best. * * * * FRANCE DEFENDS TITLE SUCCESSFULLY Playing in. the style that has made him the star of French Davis Cup the past, Henri Cochet won thé deciding match in the chal- Britain yesterday in a gruelling feams in lenge round from F.

The place of repose of the historic cup was entirely up to the brilliant Cochet, and he came through in a match that had the enthusiastic onlookers sitting on the edge of their seats.

Ken rifled three towering over-the-fence the first game in eleven heats by 8 to 5, but the Bisons came back and waltzed away with the night- cap by 5 to 1, causing an even break on the string of six games playéd here and in Toronto. Had the Leafs been able to make the most of their opporuni. ties they would have taken the first game by a larger margin, as they outhit the Bisons 16 to 10, with most of their safeties prov- ing scorchers, while about half of the Buffalo blows were more or less tainted.
