James Cosgrave Succumbs To Heart Attack iri Toronto TORONTO, Ont., June 11.— James Cos-grave, for many years a popular figure on Ontario race tracks, died suddenly from a heart attack on Thursday. Cosgrave was associated with E. P. Taylor in business and in the ownership of the Cosgrave stable, which was organized in 1937. Mona Bell, a stakes-winning mare, who finished second to Bunty Lawless in the-1938 Kings Plate, was a star of the stable, which included a modest band of successful campaigners. The Cosgrave stable colors were Turquoise and gold, identical to the present Taylor stable colors. James Cosgrave was active in many fields of sport. He was a rowing star with the Argonaut rowing club and represented Canada in the diamond sculls in 1910. He played hockey with the old St. Georges OhA team. Always an ardent devotee of racing, he was in daily attendance at Woodbine until a few days before his death. Funeral services will be held at the Rosar Funeral Home, Sherbourne St. Monday at 9:30 a.m., followed by Requiem Mass at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church, St. Clair Ave. E.
