single drove in Martin, who had
opened the inning with a walk. But
the roof fell in on Wigle in the sec
ond frame when eight hits, coupled
with four Hagerstown errors, and a
fly ball that was lost in the lights,
put Harrisburg ahead 10-1. Fifteen
batters went to the plate in that
hectic inning.
The Owls, however, refused to
play Dead" even though they were
nine runs behind, and kept banging
away with the result that they
wound up with eight runs them
selves, and if it hadn't been for the
fact that it was one of those nights
when nothing the Owls could do was
right (they committed a total of
seven errors) the score would have
been even closer

Snyder went the rest of the way, and
he did a fine relief job. Baxter

President Of Mexico
Defends Deva|uation
BY the Associated Press

MEXICO CITY, Sept. 1.-Presi-
dent Miguel Aleman stated his case
before the Mexican people today and
defended his regimes action in de-
valuing the peso.
In a 2O,0O0-word report to Con-
gress, President Aleman made a
strong bid to regain the firm leader
ship he held when he took Office in
December, 1916. His term runs six
years.
Faced with the most serious crisis
Of his presidential career, he de-
voted nearly half his speech to an
appeal for popular support of his
government, which has been under
bitter attack by both left and right
extremists. He cautioned his listen
ers to be wary of disorders led by
selfish opportunists."
Justifying the governments action
in freeing the peso from its eight
year 4.85 to one dollar peg, the Pres.
ident told how an economic crisis
came to head July 81.
Heavy drains on Mexico's dollar
supply through luxury buying, sea
sonal decline in exports and the un.
favorable situation in Latin Amer
ica,, including Mexico, required quicl
action, he said.

MIAMI, Fla, Sept. 1.-Two trop-
ical storms, both showing signs of
dissipating before any serious dam
age is caused. ushered in the "hur-
ricane month" of September today
The first hurricane of the season,
toward the mainland from below
Puerto Rico, apparently was blow
ing itself out in the North Atlantic
after skirting the North Carolina
coastline.
Storm warnings hoisted over the
islands of Guadalupe and st. Lucia
in the WindWard Island chain were
lowered before midnight as a small
tropical storm with winds no strong
er than so miles an hour pushed
into the Caribbean Sea.
A third AREA of suspicion" in
the Gulf of Mexico about $50 miles
off Brownsville, Tex, apparently was
nothing more than a squall wave
and held little threat of becoming a
tropical storm.
Ships and planes which had
evacuated the North Carolina coast
al area when the first hurricane
threatened we're returning and hun
dreds of residents along the Caro-
lima beaches who had boarded up
their homes and retreated to safer
locations also were returning.
Storm No. 2 was reported heading
westward into the Caribbean at
about II to 16 miles an hour. Winds
in the center were estimated at be-
tween IS to 40 miles an hour.
