The British Broadcasting Cor- poration, which has hitherto fi- nanced the orchestra, offered to continue to support it to the ex- tent of $35,000 for two years on condition that a like sum. was raised in Wales, the control of the orchestra to be vested ulti- mately in a Welsh committee. An appeal for funds signed by Lord Plymouth and others was jssued some months ago, and a sum of $14,000 was collected, including contributions of $2,600 and $1,250 from the Cardiff and Swansea Corporations respective- ly. The Welsh quota was to have been raised by the end of June, and a deputation from the Or- chestra Appeal Committee, which waited upon the Council recently, urged that the time-limit should be extended. After reviewing all the circumstances the Council were unable to agree to this course. The Council resolved that donations due to be refund- ed under the conditions of the appeal should be returned to the donors and the other donations should be given to hospitals where that was undertaken, the remaining donations to ha deve- ted to the Musicians' Union Be- nevolent Fund in Wales, An attachment has been in- vented for dial telephones that records the number of a person calling when the person called is absent to enable the latter to call back on his return, A tank motor truck has been built in England that can carry a load of 100 tons and thats so long that an assistant rides at the rear communicating with the driver by telephone. a Ruth is Creeping Close to Gehrig New York, Aug. 7.--Young Henry Johnson bore down when the bearing was good yesterday, striking out two batters and fcreing another to pop weakly to the infield with the bases crammed in the ninth inning and the New York Yankees ger- ed through to a 6 to 3 victory over the champion Philadelphia Athletics in their series opener, Gomez, until he weakened in the ninth, had held the cham- pions to three scattered hits and would have blanked them for eight innings had it not been for "Bube" Ruth's two base muff of Cramer's fly in the fourth in- ring. Ruth apologized for this error in the fifth by hitting his 30th home run of the season. Leaders In The Majors Chuck Klein moved up another notch in the Big Six standing yes- terday as his two National Lea- gue batting rivals were out of action. Klein hit safely twice in four attempts, adding two points to his average and gaining a tie with Charley Grimm for second place onthe National League list and sixth in the Big Six. Babe Ruth and Al. Simmons also made two hits apiece in four times up, adding one point each to thelr marks. One of the Babe's clouts was his thirtieth homer of the season. Earl Webb failed three times and dropped three points.

Despite the heat, a large crowd of fans sweltered and hollered to the finish as the Toronto team scored more and more goals as the periods progressed. By the end of the initial period the Leafs led-by 6 to 2 but, as goals are small matters in the box lacrosse game, Cornwall Colts still had a chance. After five more Leaf tal- lies in the second session the Colts' chagces had Ween reduced to hopes. As the final period wore on the Zimmer, White Ken- dall front rank frollicked along with assistance from Pim to ram in eight more counters the Hast- erners' hopes even vanished aud their ship went down with all hands at their posts. Native Sons Suspended by ~~ 4 i O.A.L.A.; Former Players * Of Oshawa Team Involved . ---- Smithson, Silk and Coulter Called to Appear Before O.A.L.A. Executive at * * Meeting Tonight--Sev- eral Charges of Profes- sonalism Suggested \ j Toronto, Aug. 7. -- Following formal presentation of certain charges by a rooming housekeeper of Highland Creek, by two refer- ees and the Hamilton Lacrosse Club, the Native Sons of Canada Lacrosse Club of Toronto was suspended last night at a special meeting of the executive of the Ontario Amateur Lacrosse Asso- ciation. Alderman John Winnett amd Joseph W, Miller, two officials of the Native Bong Club, together with three players, have been di- rected to appear before the exe- cutive to-night to answer sugges- tions of professionalism and other charges, The club stands suspended by last night's order until the situa- tion is cleared up. The three Na. tive Sons players, whose testi- mony will be sought to-night are W. Coulter, Bert Smithson and Ty Silk. At the meeting of the O.A.L.A. executive last night, the follow- ing motion was passed: "That the Native Sons' Lacrosse team of Toronto be suspended un- til such time as specific charges are disposed of, and that the of- ficers of the club along with play- ers, Smithson, Coulter and Silk, appear before the executive on Aug. 7 at 8.16 at the Prince George Hotel." Native Sons last week initiated court action against the O.A.L.A. to force the latter body to grant a playing certificate to Charles Barron but the case was thrown out. Later the O.A.L.A. suspend- ed Native Sons until their entry fee of $30 was paid. Settlement was made thus automatically re- instating the team. The suggestion of professional- ism arises out of the allegations of Mrs A. Swinton of Highland Creek, who claims that Mr. Mil- ler and Alderman Winnett ar- ranged with her for the accom- modation of six players and two officials of the Native Sons' Club for a period of nine weeks, the club to stand responsible for all obligations incurred. The league executive, in sus- pending the club, did so with the possibility in mind that the resi- dence at Highland Creek, eight miles east of Toronto, was estab- lished merely for the purpose of circumventing the league's re- quirement that players for Toron- to clubs must live in the eity or closer to the city than to another municipality that has a lacrosse club. Some of the men for whom residence was established at High- land Creek are employes of the General Motors at Oshawa and have permanent homes there, It has been charged that the men must have been aware of the bas- is upon which such arrangements were made in their behalf, and that the alleged payment of their board bills by the club wag tanta- mount to cash remuneration for their services to the club. This point will be threshed out tonight it is expected. i Toronto Leafs Defeat Skeeters Jersey City, Aug. 7. -- Yoang Glenn Liebhardt, who couldn't win a game for the Skeeters when hie was with them last summer, surprised the local players this afternoon. He allowed but six well-scattered hits and pitched the Leafs to a 7 to 1 victory in their final 1931 game here. The vin gave O'Neill's team a record of seven out of twelve in Jersey City during the year. Nolen Richardson, making four Lits, drove in the same number of runs and scored two more, be- ing of much assistance to the iron man's son in gaining revenge over the team that gave him a chance to view the scenery in the New York-Pennsylvania League last season. Wilmington, Aug. 7. -- Primo Carnera, giant Italian, added an- other knockout to his string to- night by disposing of Armado de Carlos, of South America, in the second of a schednled eight round battle. . Carnera weighed in at 272 1-2, while de Carlos tip- ped the scales at 187. ets --------ta NEW MARTIN Playing Today SHE WAS A MADONNA ~~ ote STREETS / , UNTIL SHE MET HIM onc Sh Silverware Night TONIGHT !
