When it was evident that all he had was his bat- "tered old glove. Manager O'Hara yanked him and sent Don Hankins lo the mound, and there was a de- cided lull in the activities of the Piedmont Leaguers for several inn- ings thereafter, 'Twas Home Run Day. Nine home runs were chalked up during the festivities and two-bag- gers galore rattled off the bats of the opposing gladiators. Five of the circuit clouts were gathered in by the Leafs, Rabbitt getting two and Alexander, Webb and Burke one each, The short fences got an aw- ful play, almost any old kind of a fly ball going over the right-field barrier. Alexander's rap was an honest one, as was one of Rabbitt's and Webb's lone effort, Webb not only drove one ball over the left field fence, but smacked two others up against the wall, on which he made the half-way trip, + The chief batting honors of the day, however, were monopolized by Cox, the rangy first baseman and lefthand hitter of the heomesters, who smote three homers, a double dnd a single in as many tries. Two of his "around-the-world" efforts were made off Hankins in succes- sive appearances at the plate, .« Strange to say, Alexander's only "hit was his smash far and high over the centre-field boundary.

Green, educational director of a beauty produets manufacturing company repregented at the con- vention of the midwest beauty trade show at the Hotel Sherman. "Artificial lights bring out the dazzle in her skin, and they also seem fo bring out her character, The brunette must have a stunning figure, wear her clothes bheanti- fully and use make-up artistically to get hy in the evening. "On the other hand, the brun- ette will look far better at moon the next day. She recuperates from dissipation much more quickly than the blonde. Her dark eyes and hair contrast heautifully with the pastel tints of her lingerie and negligee. The snap of her dark eyes serves her in good stead in the daytime, but her charm he- gins to dim when the lights go on." Ochre-colored powder smoothness and allurement to a blonde's complexion, according to experts at the beauty show. Mauve powder is flattering to complex» ions in the evening. The naturals looking make-up is siill popular, with powder of sunburn shade in favor, and women who can afford to have many kinds of cosmetics use lipsticks and rouge that tone in with the color of their cos- tumes, "A woman who wears an en- semble of a purplish-biue shade will choose rouge and lipstick that lean toward a purple-red rather than toward an orange-red," said a specialist in make-up. "If they dress in yellowish beiges. thev select cosmetics that have an orange cast instead of the purplish. Then ensemble idea applies to the entire appearance as well as to ap- parel." 8 HOLD-UPS IN 2 MONTHS CROSS'D BORDER TO DO THEM _ Montreal, April 16.--George Wil- liams, 21-year-old employee of Bur- lington, Vermont, admitted in court to- day that he came across the border on eight different occasions "in spare time" to commit eight hold-ups here during the last two months, His ac- tivities, confined for the most part to cigar stores, netted him in the neigh- borhood of $500. Judge Cusson remanded the man for sentence on the eight charges until next Tiesday. Williams used a revolver with blank cartridges in it in his coups and always operated alone. His work" here was carried out on suc- cessive week-ends during February, March and this month.

The Yankees drove MacFayden from the box with a five-run rally which put the game on ice in the third. George Pipgras, a Yankee hero in the last World Series, started his first championship game of the year and held the Red Sox In check at all times. Boston got only five hits off him. Manager Schalk shook up his line-up, put Alphonse Thomas on the mound, and the White Sox de- feated the St, Louis Browns 7 to 0 for their first victory of the sea- son at Chicago today. In addition to holding the slug- ging Browns to seven scattered hits, Thomas hit a home run with one man on base in the fourth inn. ing.

PORT HOPE BEACON MAY TOPPLE OVER Veteran. Lighthouse Leans Sharply Toward the Lake Port Hope, Ont., April 16.--Lean- ing at an angle of approximately 45 degrees, Port Hope's lighthouse is being rapidly demolished by the winds and waves, as a result of the entire end of the east pier being washed away, The lighthouse is bad- ly wrecked and if something is not done to save it, it will soon tumble into the lake. At the present time one-half of the lighthouse has no- thing underneath it to support it and the half which does rest on the pier is breaking further away with every gust of wind, For a distance of practically one hundred and fifty feet the entire end of the pier has been taken away by the ravages of Win- ter, while the remaining portion has suffered greatly. From hali-way out the pier to the end there is not a solid picce of planking. For vears thus old lighth mose has heen Port Hope's beacon light, and the piers stood nobly and guarded the vessels that sought shelter in the capacious harbor. Several old resi- dents of Port Hope can recollect when the harbor was crowded with vessels of all sizes, and a thriving lumbering trade carried on. These people have watched the destruction of the piers with regret and have liv- ed in hopes of seeing the harbor re- stored to its original state. But each year some part of the 'three Jake piers have gone, until today the west pier and breakwater have vanished The centre pier is very badly in need of repairs, and finally the stalwart cast pier has surrendered the fight agaist the fury of the elements, LOST WATCH HAS EVENTFUL CAREER Dropped in Pennsylvania Mine, Turns Up in Engine in Ontario | coal mine in Pennsylvania, a dis- | tance of more than 400 miles from 5 ages recovered, Stratford, April 16.--Lost in a here and missing for some days, a heavy and rather aged silver watch of United States manufac- ture, was found by E. C. Sander- son, a local railway (fireman, while he was firing up his engine for the run to Owen Somnd. The watch is in perfect condi- tion, although it travelled here in a freight car full of coal. The owner lost the timepiece while loading the car with coal and after discovering his loss reported the number of the car on which it was lost, It was found that this car had been shipped to Niagara Falls and from there to Stratford, On arrival here, the coal was hand- led a number of times and how the watch went through all this rough handling with the coal and came out without being damaged is con- sidered remarkable. The crystal is not broken and the watch keeps good time. It has been packed aud shipped to its owner, RUN-DOWN EXPERIENCE This is given as a London exper- ience. A man was run down by a motor car. He was taken to a hospital, but his injuries wére so slight that he was allowed home the same day. Within the next four days he received writen offers from three different "Associations" to conduct legal proceedings om his behalf without expense to himself, FIRST DEFEAT FOR NEW. YORK GIANTS New York, April 16.--The New York Giants suffered their first def of the here today when Cy Williams pinch bats- man for Bob McGraw, touched Fimzsimmons for a home run with two Phillies on base in the eighth, Philadelphia won 7 to 5. This was the first circuit smash of the championship campaign for Wil- liams, who tied with "Hack" Wil- son of the Cubs, for the National League home ruh leadership last season. The Boston Braves won their first victory of the season at Brooklyn when they came from behind in the eighth to defeat the Brooklyn Robins, 3 to 2. Horns- by led the Boston attack with 3 singles in four times at bat. The. Chicago Cubs pounded Jess Haines for seven hits in the first five innings at St. Louis and won, 6 to 3. The Cubs scored five runs in the fourth and added another on Webb's home run in the fifth. Guy Bush was in good form, holding the Cards to 7 hits. Donie Bush's Pirate artillery swung into action against Eppa Rixey and Jim Edwards at Cincin- nati to win, 8 to 1. They took Rixey for seven hits and six runs in two innings and followed up the attack on Edwards with two more runs. + WINS HANDBILL TITLE Toronto, April 17. -- Fred Og- den won the Ontario handball ti- tle, defeating Hary Phelan in two straight games, playing an un- heatable brand of handball and placing his shots perfectly. Og- den found no trouble in defeating Phelan, although, in justice to Phelan, it must be said he was not in shape for such a hard game, as both his legs were badly bruised from his three hard games in as many days recently, Fred Og- den has all the makings of a world's champion, and with plen- ty of practice and tournament play, by next year ought to be able to defeat the boys at the national tournament in Detroit. US. SENATOR MAKES PLEA Washington, D.C, April 16--A plea for a higher tariff on potatocs was made, today by Senator Gould, Re- publican, Maine, who introduced a resolution calling on the United Sta- tes Tariff Commission to investigate the cost of production of Irish pota- toes in the United States and in the principal competing country, Canada. The resolution sets forth that po- tato imports have increased from 44,- 000,000 pounds valued at $1 000,000 in 1923, to more than 300,000,000 pounds valued af more than' $5,000,000 in 1927. Senator Gould claims that this im- portation is too great and is detri- mental to the potato growers of the New England States. FOR HIGHER POTATO TARIFF, THREE CLUB CIRCUIT FOR N ONTARIO TE BALL London, April 16.--Present in- dications are that the Western On- tario Intermediate Baseball League will operate as a three-club circuit. The league officials have request- ed the executive of the O, B. A. A. to place either Ingersoll or St. Thomas in the loop, but Ingersoll is satisfied to remain in the In- tercounty League, while St. Thom- as has planned to stay in the West Elgin League. A meeting of the Executive Com- mittee of the O. B. A, A, will be held in Toronto on Saturday. Presi- dent George S. Martin has announ- ced, The parent body will deal with the request of the Western On- tario League, but it is not known what action will be taken. Lon- don Orange Crush, Sarnia and Stra- throy are the three clubs already represented in the Western League, A meeting of the West Elgin In- termediate Baseball League will be held at West Lorne on Wednesday night when plans will be made for the coming season. Six teams are entered, including Highgate, Rod- ney, West Lorne, Dutton, Appin and St. Thomas. A delegation of baseball offiicals fromm Highgate interviewed Presi- dent Martin of the O. B, A, A, today and requested that they he awarded three players who are claimed by Ridgetown of the Kent County League, The executive of the On- tario Baseball Amateur Association will deal with the problem on Sat- urday. St. Thomas and Ingersoll are anxious to enter teams in the juni- or series of the O. B. A. A, and President Martin is endeavoring to find a supporter for a London ju- nior team to comprise a threc-club circuit, ' RETARDING PROGRESS (Financial Post) : In Great Britain the mator car industry is making some progress aaginst very severe handicaps. One of the most severe handicaps faced is that of high taxation. On- ly in Germany are motor cars tax- ed more heavily than in Britain. An ordinary light car will pay a tax of $115 a year in Britain as against $9 in Ontario and sums from $3 to $20 in other states or provinces on this side of the wa- ter, It is little wonder then that the use of the motor car has heen greatly restricted in Britain and the industry has in consequence been handicapped, The force of the example should not he lost to Canada, The poor are unique in one par- ticular.

Mild, GOLD SHIPMENT PROVES PUZZLE Been Definitely Decided Upon Paris, April 1:.--Just what will be done about the $5,000,000 in Soviet Russian gold on board ths liner Dresden en route from New York to Germany when the ship enters French waters at Cherbourg today is a highly delicate question which officials of the Banque de France are still trying to decide. There is no question that the bank would much like to seize this ship- ment, since "it considers the gold identical with that the Banque de France had deposited in the Rus- sian Imperial Bank at the time of the Russian revolution and which the Bolshevists confiscated in 1918, But if the bank, backed by the Government, seizes the gold, even more strained relations between Paris and Moscow are certain to re- sult and a most unsavory situation may arise. This would be especi- ally delicate, coming, as it would, on the very eve of the French elec- tions, in which Communists and other radicals will play a very im- portant part, The political reper- cussion of a drastic seizure cf the Soviet's bullion might be exceed- ingly dangerous and this is ane of the factors which Is now giving the Government authorities great concern. Juridical experts attached to the bank are studying every angle of the case in an effort to determine whether or not it would be justi- fied in making the selzure, Mr, Dovgaleski, the Soviet Russian am- bassador here, already has made two protests, demanding to know whether or not the Government planned to interfere with the gnld's delivery in Germany. Foreign Minister Briand, upon his return from his Easter holiday, occupied himself with the ambassador's second note hut as yet has made no statement. It was rumored earlier that a communique might he 'published relative to the subject, but later it was said that no decision had been reached. It anpear doubtful that M. Briand will reply to M. Dovgaleski before today.
