WEST Oxford Democrats Club made it back-to-back victories after a 4-2 home success over Oracle B, writes PETE EWINS.

The Oxford & District League Division 1 side secured the points by taking the opening four singles through Richard Garrett (4,690), John Patey (4,870), Terry Green (5,120) and Billy Hill.

Although Oracle hit back to take both pairs through Kevin Giles and Vinnie Brown, as well as Melvyn Johnson and John-Jo Kelly, Democrats had already done enough.

Singles wins from Alan Lowe, Mick Murphy and Dave Rose, who won by just 70 points, helped Masons Arms to a 4-2 win over Headington Conservative Club.

Sid Ponting (5,260) won the away side singles point before the pairs were shared.
