PANIG IN GRAND STAND INJURES 103 Fire Breaks Out Under Stand' at Detroit Ball Game Detroit, Mich.,, July 8. -- One hundred and three persons, mostly negroes, were injured, four seri- ously, in a panic that followed a fire under the main grandstand at Mack park, semi-pro baseball field at Mack and Fairview avenues shortly before 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon. A cry of "fire" started the pan- ic and in the mad rush to get out of the stand, many men, women and children were trampled while others were hurt in jumping over the fence into the street. The cause of the fire has not been definitely determined. Park officials denied any gasoline had been placed under the 15-year-old wooden stands. Preparations had been made to sprigkle a small amount of gasoline on the dia- mond and ignite it to dry it out for a game between the Detroit stars and the Kansas City Mon- archs, negro baseball teams. A sudden shower interrupted the plans. The stand was immediately be- hind the home plate and was sep- arated from the field by a wire screen. That more were noc iu- jured was due to the presence wu: mind of players of both teams in tearing loose the screen. Many of the 1,500 'persons in the stand were pulled onto the field for safe- iy. Several of those injured insisted an explosion preceded: the fire. Most of the injured were taken to the city-owned receiving hospital, QUALITY COAL Phone 3060 * MALLETT'S MYRTLE MEN WIN HANDSOME PRIZES NEWMARKET FAIR W. J. Cook and R.

"In school, in church, in our homes, in every phase of the community life you have endeared yourself to us, You came among us as a teacher and ||E we appreciate very much your ex- cellent work in the school room and believe that our boys and girls have not only been taught the subjects of the school curriculum, but will have higher ideals and broader visions be- cause of your teaching. Teaching, to you, is not merely a means of a livelihood, but a profession, a call to service for the Master, "But it is not alone in the school room or among the children that your influence has been felt; you have un- selfishly put aside any difference in creed or custom and been ever ready to bear a part in every good work for church or community. "This while we should very much have liked to keep you here longer, we will try to emulate your own un- selfishness and remember that our loss is another's gain. To give tan- gible expression to our appreciation we ask you to accept this slight re- membrance and when you see or use them may they help you to forget |, the times we have failed you and to remember .our deep love for you, and we trust God will bless you in your new field of work." Signed, Your pupils and friends of Myrtle. Miss McFarland made a very feel- ing reply of appreciation and the gathering sang, "She's A Jolly Good Fellow." Light refreshments were served and the gathering dispersed with good wishes to her in her new environment, She has accepted a school in her home town, Tilsonburg. | Canada's Motor Show at the Cana- dian National Exhibition, Totontd, oc- |. cupies 120,000 square feet in the new Automotive Building.
