Homes Wrecked

glass and the singing Of the wind
in the trees announced the coming
Of the tornado. Chimneys crashed,
houses heaved and fell, while the air
was dark with dust and flying mis-
sizes. Witnesses, telling their stories,
later spoke of sheets of flame, their
origin 2 mystery, that swept past
and dissipated themselves by strik-
ing building or tree.
Automobiles moved crafty about,
overturning and wrecking them
selves like playthings of children.
Everywhere the thud Of falling walls
and chimneys and the tearing sound
Of piazzas being wrenchcd from
their foundations filled the air.
Storm Quickly Over
Swift in its coming, the tornado
was as quick in leaving. From the
ruined homes and stores the fright
ened and wet occupants appeared in
a stream. T. y found wilderness
Of fallen trees to block their way.
Hysterical women supported by men
picked their way out of the debris.
AS the danger from fallen power
wires became great, self-appointed
guards stationed themselves until
police arrived to take charge.
A Gordon was hastily placed about
the section while elementary relief
work was begun within. AS the news
was flashed to the downtown section,
the police and fire departments hast
lily modified and soon the sirens of
%,,v nd nvNv,
lances announced the coming of out
side help.
Communication Disrupted
Travel through the section was
slow and laborious and from Forest
Park to the Mississippi river, the
city lay almost inert. Telephone
communication virtually was
stopped. Word reached radio sta
ton and was broadcast, although
citizens outside the area little realized
the extent of the catastrophe.
Newspapers were powerless to
gather the details Of the picture and
sketchy reports were circulated. APP
parent exaggerations became reali-
ties shortly afterward.
The first movement was toward
Central high school. Firemcn found
18 injured pupils who were imme-
diately removed as the roof threat
ened to fall. Then the search for
dead was begun in all parts Of the
area.
Fire broke out in several places
and was extinguished by firemen
with the help Of steady drizzle OF
rain which followed the tornado
The bodies of three omen were
taken from burning debris, two OF
them charred and unacceptable.
The rain stopped and the sun came
out but shortly afterward another
storm threatened and the air itself
seemed tinted grey, later turning to
q pale pink and frightening still
more those who had an hour 'evi.
Gus seen the elements on a violc..t
rampage.
Governor Baker did not declare
martial law but gave local military
authorities a free reign in marshal.
ing the Missouri national guard anc
soon the streets assumed something
Of a martial aspect as guardsmer
Of st. Louis reported for duty.

 Lou Gehrig's 22nd home run help ed the Yankees to take the second hall of a double-header from their challengers. the Athletics, by ' to 3, after losing the first game by to 2. Babe Ruth was out of the lineup with an injured knee and Gehrig's slam carried him to within striking distance of the Big Bans homer total of A.
 In the other headline battle of the day. the Pirates loosed terrific batting barrage that rlddled the Cardinals by 9 to 3.
 While the Yankees still had long lead on the American league field. the Pirates needed the victory as they had but slim half game ad- vantage over the Cardinals before.

kAPLAN FAVORED
 TO BEAT FLOWERS
Battle Between Meriden and Harlem Fighters Tuesday Night

The fight between Louis (Kid) Kaplan and Bruce Flowers at the Greensboro A. c. tomorrow night, ought to be a riot. The best match of the outdoor season be- tween little fellows. there promises to be enough thrills to pull a large crowd at Simon Flahertys big arena right out of their seats. The two boys are scheduled to travel 10 rounds, but there is suspicion that one or the other will hit the boards for the full count long before those prescribed ten innings are used up.
 kaplan is a slight favorite over the clever and hard hitting colored battler but there is plenty of Flow CTS money in evidence. The chances are that even money will prevail at ring time. Throughout Connection, "kappy' is a heavy favorite. Nut meg fans cant see where Flowers has a chance and they are banking on the Kid" to beat the colored boy
 No matter which way it goes, the two will know they have been in a battle. Kaplan will pit his strength and aggressiveness against Flowers superior boxing skill. Flowers is a real sharpshooter but that Kaplan is hard man to keep away.
 Billy Gibson. manager of Kaplan, thinks that his charge is we'll on his way to another championship. He wants Kaplan to win against Flowers first and then ease his way along until he gets a crack at Man. dell's lightweight crown.
 The 10 round semi-iinal between Lew KKirsch, the East Side young ster, who has yet to lose a fight, and Jackie Snyder, is attracting almost as much attention as the main bout. Snyder is rough and a good plugger | but he will have to have plenty to beat Kirsch.

To Babe Ruth, holder of records galore in baseball, goes the honor of having performed the greatest of- fensive feats ever staged in a single world series game.
 When you take into consideration all the famous athletes who have participated in the diamond classic. it is easy to realize what(a remark able young man Mir. Babe Ruth really is, provided you don't know it.
 Ruth's defensive performance happened in the second game of the 1916 world series between Brooklyn and Boston. Babe was then the star southpaW of the latter team.

|BURRI77S LOSE IN
 Y INNING GAME|
Local Baseball Team Falls Be-
 fore East Glastonbury Club

The Burritt A. c. baseball team went down to defeat before the East Glastonbury club in that town Saturday only after 17 innings of fierce battle had been fought. The score was 5 to at the end of the long siege with the locals on the short end. From the start to the finish it was a nip and tuck affair.
 The Burritts drew first blood in the opening inning and although the town team evened up matters in the fifth, the Burritts rallied and scored in the sixth and eighth and seemed on the road to victory. In the last of the eighth, however. East Glastonbury staged a rally to tie the score again.
 From then on until the 17th in- ming, it was anybody's game. The Burritts managed to put one across in the first of the 17th inning and it looked as if the old ball game was over. But the town team come up in it's half of the inning and broke the camel's back.
 Burdell at second starred with some wonderful stops that robbed batters of hits. His work at bat also featured. He got three hits out of six times up. scored three runs him. self and drove in the other one for the Burritts. Perry at first had A putouts without a misplay. Co., field, the town teams second base man. fielded nicely while Salak. in the box for the locals, struck out 12 men and kept the oppositions 1S hits well scattered. In the 18th ir- ming with the bases filled, he struck out the next three batters. The summary:
New Britain herald., 1927-06-27

This affair went 14 innings and was finally won by Boston 2-1. Sherry Smith, now with Cleveland. opposed Ruth. With two down in the first inning. Hi" Myers hit 8 home run. That was Drooklyn's lone tally. He held the Dodgers scoreless in the ensuing 13 frames, allowing only five hits.
 His offensive record was the mak- ing of three home runs in one game in the 1926 clash between New York and St. Louis, the most mar velous bit of super-slusging the game will probably ever see.
 Quite some attraction, this fellow Babe Ruth.
