A -- AIA Sr Wy i, a Northern Ontario's Needs Are Outlined by Leader of Libera TENT - - ~~ THE OSHAWA, DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, JUNE 21; 1927 Prominent Oshawa Citizens Had Narrow Escape When Launch Cau Col. W. E. Phillips and Son, Derek, R. W. Millichamp and W. D, Elliott Were on HAD TO JUMP INTO WATER FOR SAFETY Col. Phillips' Motor Launch Was Totally . Within a Few Minutes, Effort to Run It Ashore Being Blocked by Sunken Log Four Oshawa people, Col. W, E. Phillips, president of the W, E Phillips Co. Ltd; R. W. Millichamp, resident of Oriental Textiles, Ltd.: Ww: D, Elliott, manager of a local branch of the Canadian Bank of Commerce; and Mr, Phillips' nine- year-old son, Derek; as well as R.C. Cowan, Toronto; narrowly escaped death when a motor launch in which they had gone for a pleasure cruise on Sturgeon Lake, took fire and within a few minutes was totally destroyed. The members of the party, who were guests of Mr, Phillips at his summer home on Sturgeon Lake last week end, when the accident occur- red, were being entertained on an excursion on the lake, and had been on the water only a short time when the blaze was discovered by Derek Phillips, An effort was made to run the launch ashore, when a suriken log was struck, thus making any chance of landing impossible, Realizing the imminent danger that threatened them, 'the passengers not daring to risk a moment in trying to save any personal effects, jumped overboard, Through water which was deep in places, and through mire, the four men swam or waded a distance of forty or fifty yards to shore, The boy, with a great show of pluck, in- sisted upon wading whenever pos sible, but more than once the depth of the water made it imperative that he be carried on the shoulders of one of the men, And while they made their escape, striking out for the unfamiliar shore, the launch, flaming like a torch, with bits of timber sizzling as they fell into the chill water, provigled a spec- tacular picture, A few moments later charred pieces of the keel alone floated on the water. Drenched and their feet clogged heavily with mud, the four men and the boy stumbled along shore until they discovered a farm- house, A motor car was secured and the party driven back to Mr, Phil lips' summer home at Sturgeon Lake, The launch, which bore no name, had been the property of Mr, Phillips about one year, er ---- SATURDAY, JUNE 20, ORANGE TAG DAY Proceeds Go To L.T.B.

BOAT IS DESTROYED BY FIRE TODAY AT *" LAKEVIEW PARK CONFLAGRATION DE- CLARED OF INCENDI- ARY ORIGIN Was Second | Fire In Week at Park--No Motive Revealed - That a twelve foot launch, part in and part out of the water at, the lake was deliberately set afire eatly this morning, is the opinion of Fire Chief Elliott who investigated the fire this morning, § Most of the residents of Lakeview Park had gone to bed when the flames broke out, but one saw the fire from his home and notified the department, The boat was partly beached on the east side of the shore remote from the dock and difficulty was experienced in reaching the craft. Some cottagers managed to procure a punt, however and suc- ceeded in getting the flames under control and finally extinguished be- for the fire department arrived. The boat was of sturdy material and practically sea-worthy but was minus its engine, In the opinion of the fire chief, the motive for firing the craft to cover traces of theft was out of the question since there was nothing in the boat of any value, It was owned by Alex Hastings of this city, The damage was not es: timated. . This was the second fire alarm to be turned in Susing the week, both fires having been of incendiary orig- in, Chief Elliott in speaking to The Times stated this morning that he has not halted investigations on either of the fires, the other con- flagration being a barn on the west side of the beach. "There are al- together too many fires in this dis- trict, which have been deliberately started. In each case there has been no motive revealed and theft was out of the question," said Chief Elliott, } When the craft was burning the flames rose to great heights. Sparks circulated high in the air and burnt embers dropped with a sizzling sound into the water. A larger boat immediately beside the burnt craft, was untouched by the flames, CHICAGO GRAIN OPENING June 3. ~Wheat: Mother--Daughter, dear, I'm afraid that young man is a bad eg Tuly, Chi Ts, us: 3 7. orn: July Oats: July, 44 { 8 Daughter--He's all that and even worse.
