The victory was also the Athletics' sixth of the season over the Tigers in as many games. Earl Whitehill, although beat- en by "Lefty" Grove, who turned in his tenth victory of the season, held;the Macxmen hitless for four innings. The first hit made off him was Jimmy Foxx's first of two home runs. TFoxx's pair of circuit blows, the second hit with one on in the eighth inning, brought his season's total to thir. teen, and was his third in two days, Mark Koenig, who did not have a fielding chance at short during the game, made four of the losers' seven hits, and had a perfect day at bat, ------------ A set of artificial teeth was found near a racecourse recently, It is un- derstood that they were still gnash- ing feebly.

Hockey Star, Signs With Leafs Toronto, June 9.--Just a year or so ago Harold Darragh of Pitts- burg was rated as one of the bes right-wing players in professional hockey. Now he becomes a meni- ber of the Toronto Leafs via the waiver route. At first glace it would appear that the locai own- ers are taking a chance. They are. gamble that way. If Darragh comes through the deal will be more than justified. The newcomer iz 28 years of age. He has always led an ex- emplary life. There is every rea- son to believe that his best hoc- key days are not behind him. He wag an idol in Pittshury not only because of his abiliy, but also be- cause he was one of the fairest players who ever donned the blades, His teammates in the Smoky City rated him as their best performer. They should know. Last year, after the Pittsburg franchise had been transferred to Philadelphia for no good reason, the elub ran into financial straits, and Darragh's services were sold to the Boston Bruins. In his first game with the Hub team he was injured, and after that he never got a chance to display his real wares, It was only two years that the New York Rangers were willing to pay $35,000 for the services of Darragh and "Hib" Milks. : Darragh, who hails from Otia- wa, is_a brother of the late Jack Darragh, onc of hockey's immor- tals. He lacks the dynamic force and the color of men like "How- fe" Morenz, but in his own way he is highly effective. Defensive- ly, at any rate, the Leafs won't have to worry when he is patrol- ling the right-wing lane. It is a well-known fact that there is no love lost between the Boston and Terontg owners, hut the Bruin management asked for weivers on Darragh so that he It includes forehand ! such 4 ar 5 nash and hali- is ce 1 could be sent to the Bruin Cubs in the Canadian-American eLague, and Toronto claimed him.

Coach Eddic Powers, the smartest mentor in Canada; was in charge, and the instructions he gave were adhered to to such an extent that the players combined well on attack and defense. Powers can be depended on to get the best possibic results out of the all-star squad. He knows lacrosse from a to z, and then some, Among those noticed were: Bert Large, Brampton's brilliant goal- keeper; Bert Burry, "Tony" Stapleton and "Bucko" McDonald, all of the Excelsiors; Gordon Thom, the sensational St. Simon's defense man; "Piper" Bain of the same team, and "Toots" "White, high-scoring Native Sens home player, Montreal was represented by Henri Gabarino, better known as one ot football's best outside wings; the fast-moving O'Connell, and "How" Bleecker and Angus McKinnon. The last two-named formerly played for St. Simon's, Benny Haynes, the best home player in Quebec, was also on hand, as were Charlie Connell of Ottawa and Irv. Lounsbury, the best player on the Hamilton team Teddy Reeve went through his paces, and Coach Powers announced that the former Brampton defense star would be included in the line- up. It develops that Reeve has not signed a professional contract even if he has admitted that he will do so in the negr future. Others who will aid the all-stars are "Chuck" Barron and Charley Davidson, former- ly of Oshawa, and "Stew" Beatty and "Red" Spencer, Brampton Stal- warts. It is also hoped that Bill Coulter, onc of the best defense men in the sport, will participate in the series.--Taken from The Globe, » * * * Balmy Beach Champs to Tour West Balmy Beach Seniors, rugby champions of the Dominion of Canada, have definitely made arrangements to make a tour of Western Canada this early fall.

Overcoming a four-run lead whittled out by the Leafs through a shower of three homers, the Bisons scored seven times in the lucky seventh, most. ly through the graciousness of the Leafs. Only three hits were required as thirteen batters faced a parade of four pitchers and amassed seve en counters. A flock of errors and stolen bases enabled the Bis- ons to do most of the damage. The Toronto hurlers were troubl- ed with acute wildness and a total of a dozen walks were issued, eight of them by Guy Cantrell, the starting pitcher. The Bisons pri- ed only three safeties from Cant- rell before he was exiled in the seventh, and wound up with a to- tal of only six safe blows, : Errors Costly Morehart was the chief offender in the error line for the Leafs, being guilty of two vital muffs, Joe Harris also had to accept much responsibility, for after he dropped a thrown ball with one out in the seventh seven straight batsmen scored in one way or ans other. The Leafs had only the satisfac tion of ending the reign of terror of Dave Danforth, electric-light pitching yizard, who was bombed from the mound by a trio of ho- mers that produced five runs dur- ing the four heats he worked. George Bell, right-hander, recent- ly obtained from Reading, became the winning pitcher when he zl- lowed only two hits and two tal- lies, one of them unearned, in the last five chapters. PEER RNE at Pittsburg-- SENATORS ON SCORING RAMPAGE Washington, June 9.-- Bunch- ing 20 hits off four Chicago pitch. ers, Washington rolled up its big- gest score of the season yester™\y to heat the White Sox, 18 to 4. While Bob Burke pitched steady ball, the Senators knocked Thom- ag, Frazier and Moore out of the fibox before they were finally stop- ped by the veteran Faber. Wash- ington put the game out of dan- ger in the second hy scoring eight runs off Thomas and Frazier.

Hand S. and A. Team A Beating Mike's Place Defeat S. and A. Team by 19-2--Los- ers Only Get Seven Hits, Thanks to Fine Pitching of Towns and Smart De- fensive Play of Winners --Jniors Hit Freely and Hard Lack of hits, due partly to their own inability and partly to the stel- lar pitching of Towns, the opposing woundsman, kept the S. and A. Bil- liards' softball team from making even a close contest of their sched uled league game with their bus- iness and softball rivals Mike's Place, which resulted in a 19 to 2 victory for the Juniors. The game 'played at the Motor City Stadium, before a crowd which which was small, due no doubt to the bitten cold winds which swept the stands, tugned out to be a very mediocre softball battle, with the junior squad completely outclassing ther rivals, from start to finish. I'he winners took three innings to solve Hinks' delivery and after that it was simply a case of how many The juniors sccored once in the first, and did not tally again until the fourth when they shoved five run ners across the plate, They scored cvery innings thereafter, On the other hand, S. and A scored in one innings, namely the sixth, when three hits gave then two runs, one being a homer, by Leveque Towns, who threw up to and past the S. and A. batters was seldom in trouble. Hé¢ was given alinost perfect support, there being only ofic error on his team, and that by a player who can easily be forgiven as he scldom makes a misplay: S. and A. played nice defensive ball also,. having only two errors, D. Conlin and Leyden being the offen- ders. Hitting Makes the Difference The entire difference in the stand- ing was duc to the hitting. Hurst, lead off man for the winners, had four safeties while Peterson and Hall each had three. The centre fielders on the winning team were the only players who failed to get at least onc hit. On the other hand S. and A. had only four men out of nine who were able to connect safely, Leveque getting one while B. Conlin, Naylor and Arnold each had two. The last four men on the list failed to get a hit all night. The features of the game were the outstanding defensive play of the winners, from the hurler to the last man, the fine hitting of Hurst and the two home run drives by Peterson, The teams :-- Mike's Place Jrs. -- Hurst, 1f.; Cornish, s.s.; Major, c., Peterson, 1 b.,, Hall, 3 L., Maundrell, r.f.; Price and Graboski, c.f, Knox 2 b.,, Towns P.

Mitchell drove in the Giants' last two runs with a double in the eighth in- ning and scored one run, RUFFING BLOWS UP New York, June 9.---For eicht innings yesterday Charles Ruffing of the New York Yankees pitchea a baseball masterpiece, "holding the Cleveland Indians to one lone single; then he was struck by lizhtning.
