THE OSiiAWA DAILY [lIMES, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1928 PAGE NINE "A New Absorbing Love Story of the Air "SEA WINGS" CHAPTER 33 He crouched silently - against the frail house under the window for several waiting to hear some sound, But all was quiet, Si- lently, he arose to his feet and peered into ihe Ri R the on Sande ight le out. t re oan, ligh and bound on the bed. Her dome the room, tly, glance ¢ had decided she was alone, when he saw, with a 'shock, a pair of beady eyes staring at him over the foot of the couch! Mora! She made no outcry, how- ever, and Ivor drew himself up on the window ledge, The slight noise aroused Joan, who turned with difficulty on the shiver passed over her, and her eyes wid- ened as she recognized Ivor, "Le Fevre here?" Ivor's lips formed the words, Joan shook her head, : vor slipped into the room, seized a knife from the wall, and quickly cut Joan's bonds, and loosened the gag from her mouth, 3 "Oh, Ivor," she moaned, sagging toward him, : He caught her close to him, em- bracing her fiercely. - "All right, darling? She nodded, "Where's Le Fevre?" i "Gone to the cliff, to kill you! Joan answered, supremely content to rest in Ivor's streng arms, "Good God!" Ivor exclaimed. "I hope Art doesn't try to come up. Hurry, we may be too late!" Mora, who had squatted silently on the floor, commenced to moan as she saw the two preparing to leave, "What's the matter?" Brooks ask- ed curiously, | ; "Afraid the beast will kill her, when he finds me gone, He killed Kwana before he left, , , ." a "Well, we'll take her with us, Brooks said, and motioned Mora to follow them. : The little pigmy, understanding, leaped to her feet, mumbling excit- edly in her gutteral language. Led by Mora, who knew the path, Ivor and Joan hurried through the darkness, ; As they neared the cliff, Ivor took the lead, his makeshift dagger in his hand. Stealthily they srept on, Joan keeping close to Brooks, "Halt 1" The sharp command, uttered by someone directly ahead of them, startled them so that they stopped suddenly in thejr tracks, - It was Le Fevre's voice, A heam of a flashlight flashed from Le Fevre's hand, half blinding Ivor, Then the light swept swiftly to the side and illumined Joan's face, and that of frightened Mora, | ag peering from behind the girl, > "So!" Le Fevre snarled, keeping the light on Joan, and raising a revolver, "You're running away, eh! And you, my fine bucko," switching the light back to Ivor, "where'd you come from?" ; Ivor, rasping his screwdriver more firmly, glared back at Le Fevre defiantly, 44 as the man turned the flashlight from him again, the aviator sprang forward, kicking it and the gun from his hands. Both went rattling down over the cliff. "Out of the way!" Ivor shouted. He swung his screwdriver weapon to strike but Le Fevre struck it from his fist, A pigmy came running up with a flickering torch, and in the feeble light Ivor saw a knife glint in Le Fevre's hand. Le Fevre screamed a gutteral com- mand to the pigmies but they stood stock still in a group at one side, their beady eyes calmly watching the white men. : "You devils!" Le Fevre was furi- ous. But Ivor closed with him, an he was struggling in a minute in the fierce, grip of the aviator. The knife fell to the ground. The two men were about the same size. Le Fevre, despite his age, was wiry and tough, is arms around the younger man's body gripped like a vise, : Swaying from side to side, first one, then the other had the advan- tage, In the dim torch light, Joan shud- dered as she watched the battle. Once she leaped forward and snatched up LeFevre's knife to hand to Ivor, in a moment when the two men had broken apart, But Ivor had no chance to take it because the Frenchman came at him again, striking out wildly, The girl held the knife in her hand, waiting for an opportune moment. . , The fighters, locked in a desper- ate embrace, reeled perilously at the edge of the cliff. Now they were on the ground, Ivor on top, beating Le Fevre with all his strength. Then Le Fevre with superhuman effort, threw the aviator off and seized him by the throat, . Tt was a brute battle--terrible! Le Fevre's face was streaming with blood, and Ivor's tattered shirt had long since been torn from his body. aa Still the girl stood near, knife in hand, waiting her chance. 1f only Art were here! "Art!" she screamed at of her voice. "Art!" She looked wildly out over the cliff. . Again she shouted, "Art! Her voice, she realized was lost to Collins. He could not hear her if he were below. . . . i: Then she scanned the horizon, helplessly, wondering whether she could go down and fetch him , . , she was startled , , . far off in the dis. tance on the sea . , . was a light, fim but visible!

Brooks battling with Le Fevre did not hear, en Again the girl shricked: #A ship!' The Englishman, with both arms wrapped about Le Feyre, heard her. "Get Art!" he croaked, hoarsely, "The plane--" Here Le Fevre threw him while the aviator was half off his guard, and the rest of his words were choked off by the hand of the the top that meant There looked powerful Frenchman, That Dr, French's Nu-Erb surpasses all other known medicines wherever it is intro. duced is again evidenced by the recent statement of Mrs, Alice Sansom, well known local lady living at 226 East 23rd street, Mount Hamilton, Ontario, "For a long time I never knew what it was to be free from indigestion, Every morsel of food that I ate would ,sour soon after and form a distres- sing gas on my stomach, I would have a burning sensa- tion that felt as though I was on fire inside, My liver was sluggish, I would get staggering dizzy spells and suffered conm- Every Morsel of Food Hurt Me, Says This Lady Declares That Nu-Erb Gave Her the First Real Relief from Indigestion and Constipation tinually from constipation. "Nu-Erb was the first medi- cine to ever give me any real relief from these troubles and I am glad to say that it has practically overcome all of these troubles for me, I can now enjoy my meals without being afraid of the after ef- fects, for my food never sours or forms that distressing gas now, My liver is more active, I have not had a dizzy spell since I used this medicine amd my bowels are keeping regular every day, My appetite has also improved greatly and I am feeling much better in every Nu-Erb is being specially introduced in Oshawa by Karn's Drug Store, next to Post Office, Go there and let them explain to you the merits of this remarkable medicine, way," Stumbling past several pigmies, oan dashed to the stair head. Mora ollowed her, but only to jerk the knife from her grasp and rush with it to the two fighters. The girl started down, It was pitch dark. She could only feel cach step as she went down. Sob- bing now, and frantic lest the light of the ship be gone when she veached the beach, she tried to hurry, She could not. The steps were too treacherous, too steep... . It seemed hours to her before she found her seli on the beach. Long hours when she saw again the scene of silhouettes on top of the cliff-- Ivor being strangled by Le Fevre. Yet she must go . . . must find Art + + + have him take the plane out to the ship. . : "Art," she called again and again. Her cries echoed hollowly from the wall of the cliff, "Art!" He must be near--some- where! "Art! The plane--a ship!' Still no answer, 5 The light of the ship was dimmer--it was going away! to seal "Art!" No answer, Quickly she ran to the plane, ripped off the palm leaves on the engine, and settled herself in the cockpit. Long since she had driven a plane, so long she fumbled clum- sily, losing precious seconds, before she could find the switch. At last she put her fingers on the button that would release the spring starter and spin the propeller, praying aloud that it would work, that it was wound, because if it were not she had no way of start- ing the motor by herself, THEATRE EXCURSIONS BY ENGLISH RAILWAY London, Eng, Nov, 13.--A fur- ther move to capture additional traffic is to be made by the Great Western Railway Company, witn the running of matinee excursions to London, wherehy passengers will be able to start the journey with their theatre tickets as well as vail tickets, The first of these excursions will be run this month from Birming- ham, at a rail fare of §1.50 return, A theatre ticket agency in Dirm- ingham is co-operating with the (Great Western aRilway and passen- gers will be able to select from 30 afternnon performances taking place in London that day, A weut on the train is guaranteed to ev- ery person booking in advance, and iuncn and supper 'will be provided en route at a charge of 60 cents and 72 cents respectively.

Gord Cook got away for a thirteen yard end run on the next play following a triple pass, Carver to Gummow to Hubbell to himself but London stepped into the picture on the next play when they intercepted a pass to put them in possession at the centre of the field with exactly three minutes to go. Then followed the most exciting rugby ever seen in London, Play Ends on Oshawa's 5-Yard Line London tried the only expedient that contained any element of chance whatever to win the game for them in these last three minutes of play, and that was the onside kick, Their first attempt gained them 15 yards when one of their men fell on the ball after an Oshawa player had tried for the ball and then missed, A sec- ond onside was tried and this, only a short one, gained them five yards when a London man came up on top with the ball after another wild scramble which saw men on both teams diving headlong after the elu- sive pigskin, With only a minute to go, London tried out for their third onside kick and this one went well down the field to five yards out from the Oshawa line, Another scramble followed but Scott Hubbell beat a Londoner to the hall this time by inches to give Oshawa possession on their four yard line with only 30 seconds to go. On the one play which followed, Stew Carver hung onto the ball to make sure that nothing went amiss and the whistle blew to end the game on Oshawa's five yard line, with the General Motors Blue Devils of Oshawa being declared the win- ners by an 11 to 6 score, Varsity Orphans Defeat Sarnia to Enter Finals Toronto, Nov, 19,--Using the same formula of brilliant kicking, with vicelike-tackling, that bumped off Balmy Beach last Monday, Var- sity Orphans disposed of Sarnia on Saturday afternoon and captured the crown as kings of the senior O.R.F.U., rulers of the old union hy virtue of their power over the sin- gle point, The solitary scere drop- ped the former champions from their throne early in the week, and it was enough to bury Sarnia am- hitions on Saturday, but the Los Legion added five more for good measure, winning hy 6 to 0, the total being made up of three rouges, two kicks to the deadline and a touch-in-goal. Two games in the same week on the same rain- "naked field of Varsity Stadium, without a point arainst them, simp ly tells the story of the Students' suecess, Never has any rughy race ended with such a climdx, and seldom has any team leaped from the gloom of almost elimination to the caleium zlare of the Eastern Canada final, like the Lost Legion of Varsity, Only two weeks ago the Orphans were practically listed with the eli- minated, but now they face Hamil. ton Tigers. champions of the Bie Four, in the Dominion semi-final next Saturday, and thelr meteoric rise is rugby historv, an epic for tha nnnals of sport, Fate played its necnliar part as the same team that saved the Orphans from annihila- tion, eventually proved the last victims in the mad march to the Ontario chamnionship, for when Sarnia beat Kitchener two weeks ago, the Westerners put Varsity beek in the race, gave them a new erin on rughy life which they never relinnuished. The same combination that top- nled the mighty Beach team, also swept Sarnia aside, a brilliant back- field, a tenacious tackling-brizade, working on a greasy grid. Sarnia's rngged force and battering line was held at bay by Jack Sinclair's kick- ine. while all his team nrates were rhle assistants, doing their grts In the same star manner as the ace of the rear guard, Sinclair and 'ha Orphans proved by their dual "ieplay that they are superior mud- "ers. masters in mud shoes, Just what their chance jis against fhe Tigers is a problem to predict, Cag Shacks: Other "Fruit-a-tives" for Rheumatism, Ki Trouble, i ointment Just rub on MOST SENSATIONAL "VICTORY IN YEARS (Continued from Page 8) others on the London Gas House kicking list could manage to propell the ball on its return flight. As a result, the game developed into a mammoth land and air strug: gle with London trying to make up on bucks and extension plays what Hubbell gained through his kicking. But while Hubbell found little trou. ble making gains for the Blue Devils, the Gas House Gang had more than their hands full attempting to make gains by the land route through the Oshawa line, Never did the Blue Devils play a better or a stronger defensive game and their practice activities through the week previous has a great deal to do with it. Under the coaching of Ike Sutton who was acting in an advisory capa- city to Coach Cliff Pound during the last three days prior to the game, the team developed seemingly a new style, a new manner of going about things, both on the defensive and on the aggressive which beyond a doubt was one of the paramount reasons, which are sometimes often to be found behind the scenes, for the suc- cess of this now championship aggre. gation. Putting into effect on Satur- day the coaching advice handed out by Ike Sutton, the team had by doing #0 just the edge which gave them their triumph, Tke Sutton's work however does not lessen by one iota the credit which goes to every single player on the Blue Devils' line-up, Sutton's work helped the players to improve their own personal games as well as the general team-play and to him goes the credit of possibly being re- sponsible for the team's work, as a team, being on Saturday much bet- ter than London's, Credit for the splendid individual work goes to the players themselves. everyone on Saturday gave the last ounce of energy and the very utmost of their ability for the cause of the Blue Devils, Their play was truly phenomenal and too much praise can- not be spoken in their favour, Three figures seem to stand out for Oshawa in Saturday's game. The first, and almost on a pinnacle by himself, is Scott Hubbell whose re- markable kicking and splendid ball carrying figured in a tremendous portion of Oshawa's victory, All of Oshawa's points were either directly or indirectly due to him while the confidence his teammates placed in him which he unfalteringly lived up to also played a large part in his value to the team, The other two figures are George Loveless and Stu- art Carver, George Loveless was given the role at the first of the game of filling the vacancy caused by Alex Park at quarterback, Loveless gave every- thing for twenty-five minutes at the first of the game but just at the last of the first half the terrible strain on his nerves broke when he received an injury to his back and he had to be taken from the battle, While on the field, he played a glorious game. He instilled the opening flashes of pep into the team and started them off on the road to victory, And then when George Loveless had to be taken from the game a new boy to the London populace limped on the field to undertake the trying duties of quarterback and to fill the shoes of in turn Alex Park and George Loveless, This boy was "Stew" Carver, the youngest recruit on the team yet by the time the game was over, he showed himself equal to any on the fleld, Suffering slightly from a bad knee, besides in- experience with the team, he was filling something of the role of a pinch hitter in a World Series whose record in major league annals was more or less an unknown quantity, But like the pinch hitter who comes through in the ninth with the bases loaded, "Stew" Carver came through on Saturday with colors flying and handled the team like a veteran. He finished the remainder of the first half and continued to handle the play aN the way through the second thirty minutes, without a single mistake be- ing made on his part while his judg- ment in handling the plays and the players was of the. very highest or- der. This boy along with George Loveless, truly pulled the Blue Devils out of a tough hole on Satur- day, But these were by no means all the stars on the Oshawa team, Jack Bond for instance had another mar- velous day, Besides tackling every- thing and everybody that elected to advance around his end, he scored Oshawa's first touchdown on a nice piece of work in the first quarter, Russ Wiginton and Hobart, the for- mer at left outside and the latter as substitute to both men, were also much in prominence defensively duy- ing the day. As a matter of fact, nearly all the Oshawa team except Hubbell, Loveless, Carver and pos- sibly Doc Rowden stood out more for their defensive work than for their aggressive for the simple rea- son that very little ball-carrying work was actually done by Oshawa. Seventy-five per cent of the Blue Devils' activities while in possession of the ball was in kicking down the eld, On several occasions however, Oshawa found themselves obliged to do some ball carrying in order to get away from the danger zone around their own goal line, When a healthy buck was desired, Al Moore, Morris King, Ed Logan or Ed Wilson were the old reliables who were called upon. These four boys were all used about equally to carry the ball on Saturday and all did © exceedingly well. Their work on the defensive, moreover, was never better. London's plays through the line were stopped as if they had collided with a stone wall and many times the Londoners lost the ball on third down through their inability of making even two feet through the Moore-Logan-Wil- son-King combination. Boultbee at flying wing turned in another deadly tackling game such as that which he also turned in the week previous here in Oshawa. Ko- hen who relieved him and who also acted as a relief for the outside wing men was right in and stopping plays every time a London man triedsto bresk through the line, via the aerial y-yard Oshawa gain. Gord Cook shared with Bill Gummow on the defensive as we have seen but few centres perform and in ad- So hard did Alex go all the time he was in the game that Bill Tribble had to be sent in to relieve him to- wards the end of the first half of the game, which is indeed something unusual for a snapback. In Alex's absence, Tribble filled the vacancy exceptionally well, It was a fighting, hectic battle that Oshawa General Motors Blue Devils won but the better team came out on top and today this Interme- diate O.R.F.U, aggregation stands the undisputed champions of their league and now look forward to new fields to conquer, Sarnia Wanderers, champions of the number one group- ing of the Intermediate O.R.F.U. are the 'next team the locals will meet but no arrangements, outside of the fact that a winner must be decided this week, have as yet been made, dition to this he only had a single: poor snap to his discredit all day," Healthful Food in Perfect Form TRESCUIT~the water way to whele wheat health Made by The Canadian Shredded Wheat Co., Ltd.

He judges the future from the facts of the present and it is his job to judge with accu~ racy. He must judge with accuracy because, in a tele- phone system, plans must be made for years ahead and millions of dollars are in- volved, With a railway there must be tracks and stations before trains can run, With a tele- phone system there must be conduits aud central ex- changes before telephones can go in, To wait until people are clamoring for telephones is too late, MPHE BUSINESS PRO- PHET does not wait. He comes tothe management with his charts and graphs and figures and says: "In 1930 the demand in On- tario will be 80,000 new tele- phones. They will be wanted here and here and here," Or he says: "Within the next five years the Province of Quebec will need at least forty per cent more exchange ca And the management does not wait either, They know it is up to them to prepare now, If they don't they will be falling down on their job; they will not be keeping pace 'with the country, ECAUSE THE BUSI. NESS PROPHET spoke in time and the management acted promptly there are 139,000 telephones being ine stalled in Ontario and Quebee this year, Without them there would be inconvenience and confusion now in thousands of new homes and offices, Next year the business outs look calls for spending over twenty-seven million dollars to extend and renew the sys tem and plans have 'been made to do so, For the next five years the telephone expansion definites ly known to be needed in the two provinces means over one hundred million dollars, INDING THE MONEY, is a problem, It is as great a problem as the com» plications of engineering and organization. Every year as the country, grows there must be new * money ready so that the tele» phone system may keep pace, Every year thus far the money has been ready bes cause the policy of the tele- phone system has been for tunate in attracting the su port of conservative and reli- able investors who have not been subject to the influence of market fluctuations, 4 ' Li Paar IS HOW the busi~ ness prophet and his graphs have been made ef- fective, And that is why the telephone management has always met ian pro- gress with con- fidenceand en- thusiasm.
