G The double Joss placed the Can- ucks two points behind Rochester, which team went into the leader- ship. The Red Wings have a .uv4 average, with Toronto attaining a .562 mark. The first game was a slugging match, culminating in home runs blows which won for Baltimore. The other feature of the opening tussle was the pitehing of "Hawks" Hayes, a young right-handcr, who joined the Orioles fur a irlal arter Richmond of the Virginia League disbanded. One Bright Spot Only one thing in Toronto's fa- vor today was that Dale Alexand- er finally got started on his mume run splurge. He banged out ,two four-base. wallops in the opening contest. Alexander's first circuit smash came in the first inning with two men on base, while the other drive was in the ninth with the bas. es unfilled. Alex tied Frank Brow- er, Baltimore outfielder, for the league leadership in circuit wallops, each having 14. Clarence Fisher was given a good lead in the first game, but he grad- ually weakened, and in the sixth inning was taken out in favor of Don Hankins, whose offering was duck- soup for the Baltimoreans. Before he finally retired the side the Orioles had scored enough runs to take the lead. The second game never was in doubt, with "Jing" Johnson, for- mer Philadelphia Athletic pitcher, having -the Leafs at his mercy throughout, Johnson allowed thred into the rightfield bleachers in the sixth inning. Collins Beaten Rip Collins was senf into the second affair by Manager Bill O'- Hara, who was confident his ace could turn the trick, Collins pull- ing through with only three runs against him was a lucky break for him, Baltimore heing the victim of some terrible baseball, and the Orioles should have scored wvure runs than they did. Collins was nicked for mine safeties, Credit for the two victories can be given to Dick Porter, Bird out fielder. Porter, in the first game, made four hits--two singles, a dou- ble and a home run. His four- base ply gave thesOrioles the lead Ip the sixth inning. In the second game Porter drove out a double and a triple. His two-base blow in the first inn- ing scored a run, and in the fourth his three-hase wallop propelled an- other run across. Jack Dunn had to use three pitch- ers in the opening affair. Bill Shores, who is here on option from the Athletics, started, but did not last,iand was taken out in the sec- ond inning in favor of Fred Vin- cent, 'Dhe latter did not fare well and Hayes took up the pitching bur- den in the third. TWO LADS DROWN TRYING RESCUE Found Huddled Close in Death North Bay, June 15--Two lads of Rouyn, Quebec., on Tuesday indelibly inscribed their names in the archives of the North when they went to | glorious deaths after a valiant yet vain attempt to rescue a younger lad irom drowning in Lake Osisko. In- cparable in life, the bodies of the iree companions were found hudd- d closely together in>dcath. The ctims are: Norman Falkner, aged ; Oscar Falkner, 15, and Sam wis, 14, Another Falkner brother, witness- i the lifeand-death struggle, but cas powerless to intervene because ii his inability to swim. According to meagre details re- ceived here tonight, Norman Falkner, playing in a rowboat, became fright- cned when it drifted some distance irom shore and plunged into the water in an effort to reach land. Almost instantly he was in difficul- ics. Perceiving this, Oscar, his bro- ther at once went to effect the res- cue. On reaching the drowning lad, lwwever, Oscar was seized with \:ramps and the two boys locked arms wd went down together, to reappear 1 mement later, It was at this juncture that Sam "ewis plunged bravely into the water. »wis quickly reached his struggling Jiends, but in endeavoring to separ- te them was pinioned by one of the valkner lads and dragged to death iso, On the recovery of .Lewis's body it was found that his hands and face were severely scratched, evidence of the intensity of the fight the boys had made for their lives.
