rest being well scattered. Cecil Wil
cox, former speed-ball star with the
Chesley Colts, opposed Robert on the
mound, but the partly right-hander
lacked condition and his speed desert
ed him sadly after a few innings. Both
pitchers fanned seven while Cecil
walked three to Bob’s one. The Tribe
looked much better at the plate than
they have for some time and their
fielding improved, too. Roy James, a
new boy in town on the Bell Tele
phone crew, ha.s been given the sec*
ond-base job and, no doubt, will fill
the bill satisfactorily after he becomes
better acquainted with his new mates.
After Hanover had left a man
stranded on third, the Braves scored
two runs in their half of the first.
Wilcox fumbled James’ roller in front
of the plate and Somers drew a pass,
to put the first two batters on base.
Both moved up on Niergarth's sacri
fice but Wilcox bore down to fan the
dangerous Sfith. Bob. Groves came
through with, the first of three hits,
scoring both runners. The trees along
the right-centre-field fence ..achieved
sudden prominence in the next few
frames. In the third, Ken Somers lin
ed one through a maple near the
right-field foul line and the ball
bounced back in. Thinking the pellet
had gone through to the creamery
wall, Ken was an easy out as he jogg
ed along towards second. Bart Smith
had even worse luck to start the
fourth, when his long high smash to
deep centre-field got tangled up in an
elm and dropped back, Smith having
to be content with two bases instead
of a home-run. Another sharp single
by Groves, scored the short-stop after
which Wilcox struck out the next
three batters.
Two more Hurons dented the plat
ter in the fifth. Bridgeford opened
with his second hit of the day, a liner
just, inside third) base and took second
on a passed ball. James walked and,
while Somers was missing an attempt
ed sacrifice, Bob stole third, greatly
to everybody’s surprise, including his
own, we imagine. Ken then lifted a
foul to Krueger and Niergarth struck
out. Smith was given an intentional
pass filling the bases. Groves lofted a
Texas Leaguer over short scoring two
Magwood just failing to hold on to
the ball. Bob was given a single on
the blow. The last Huron run came
in the eighth, Smith looping a hif to
centre and1 going all the way to third
when he caught the Red Sox napping
on Gnoves’ sacrifice. Rae went down
swinging but Fred Mellor lined a nice
single over second. Cook also singled
but the Tribe were prevented from •
scoring more runs when the base um
pire ruled Bridgeford out on a slow
roller to Wilcox, although Bob seem
ed to be half w.ay to the railway track's
by the time the rotund twirler let fly
the ball.
A double by Murray Thompson fol
lowed by clean singles by Magwood
and Hetherington opened the ninth
and accounted for the visitors’ scor
ing, Bob getting the next three in or
der by fanning two and tossing out
the other one himself. The win put
the Hurons back in undisputed pos->
TWO GORRIE GIRLS
DIED IN CAR CRASH
(Continued from Page One)
that there will not be an inquest.
This follows the procedure recently
adopted in such cases. When a charge
is laid no inquest is held.
Traffic Officer Norman Lever, of
Clinton, was called to investigate the
accident and he was assisted by Coun
ty Constable William Gardiner, of
Wingham.
Car Hit Bridge, Rolled Over and Over
Just what happened, as far as com
plete details are concerned may never
be known and every explanation, even
by traffic officials ’who investigated
is purely one of presumption. Police
claim the car was going at a high rate
of speed and that the driver skidded in
the loose gravel as he approached the
bridge from the south. The county
road had been widened at both ap
proaches to the bridge. Traffic Of
ficer Lever believes the car skidded
sideways on the approach and that
the right side of the machine clicked
the east and south corner of the
bridge and then plunged over to .the
other side, starting then to turn over
and over. The tangled mess of the
car was found some 58 feet north of
the north side of the bridge, which
was of heavy steel construction with
planking as a flooring.
Immediately the car struck the
bridge, it gave way, the southerly end
. caving down some distance. It was
said that this created-an incline point
ing north, which the car travelled, lit
erally shooting it out into the air
northwards, with the momentum
which would be left in the wheels,
Injuries to the two victims were
terrible and in one case beyond des
cription, being to the head in each in
stance. They died immediately. One
girl, now in hospital was thrown some
twenty feet, but. she managed to be
clear of the bouncing and rolling au
tomobile. As far as can be determin
ed the injured were thrown through
the roof ,of the heavy sedan, which
was not of steel-sconstruction. It was
said that a piece of the steel bridge
rail pierced the car. which for the
most part was a tangled mass of ruins.
However, the front end of the mach
ine was not badly damaged, leading to
the belief that the front of the car did
not hit the bridge. The car was on
its side on the West side of the road
wher it came to rest.
Warned Approaching Car
Young Desjardine, recovering al
most immediately- from the shock of
the crash suddenly realized -the bridge
was down and that he had passed an
other car back the road some dis
tance. He ran- across the bridge which
had sagged down and the drop was
so severe that he went rolling into the
muddy creek at- this location. He
scrambled out the south side and back
onto the road, approaching the bridge
to stop a car driven by William New
ton, of Gorrie. Otherwise, without
warning, this car may have plunged
into the great hole left where the
bridge had broken down.

meeting of the County Council. One
half a mill ($27,000)-was set aside for
war purposes. It is for use as follows,
$10,000 for Red Cross; $11,000 for air
port and the balance for other war
work to be used at the discretion of
the Warden’s committee. The form
ation of a Home Guard was turned

the county police will assist them
when necessary.
Speaking Of accidents on county
