Dorey was very disobliging in the bingle deâ€" partment allowing the Toburnites no more than one clout in any inning. It was a A4eal hard fought ball game until the last inning when visitors scorâ€" ed exactly half of their runs. Bussiere buckled to allow four hits in that frame a triple by Romualdi, a double by Cookâ€" son and singles by Rudel and chase, Prior to that the Northerners had enâ€" joyed a good inning in the fifth when Romualdi‘s single, Lawton‘s triple and chase‘s oneâ€"base hit accounted for two runs. The first Hollinger run came in the second ining when Cookson tripled to deep right and scored home on Oltean‘s triple to deep left. Boiled down one could say that it was a case of weli placed triple hits winning the game. The three ibase smashes pounded out by the four players directâ€" ly effected the scoring or runs.

In the selection of this type of transport, Canadian of â€" ficials directed their steps along the Operating from coastâ€"toâ€"coast, the fast airliners of the ‘Trans;â€"Canada Airlines could readily be converted into fighting craft if the air division of the Fedgral Department of Natonâ€" al Defence needed them.
