Lure of Circus Proves
 Stronger Than Police

The lure of the circus and the call of the sawdust ring. with it's side shows and other attractions, proved stronger than the arm of the law for Bruno Zaurotney, IT, of Kensington, who was arrested in connection with a copper theft on New Haven railroad property last week. The youth was await ing trial when the timely arrival of the Sells Floto circus last week offered means of escaping pun iShment at the hands of the law, and he has not been seen since the circus pulled stakes and de- parted. Just what will be done about bringing him back has not been decided.
 When Zaurotney, now appar- cntly a roustabout, failed to ap- pear last night in the Berlin town court, it was his second fade-out in two weeks, for at the previous session he had failed to show up when visions of reform school turned him away after he had actually set out for the court.

San Francisco, July LP)-The fire which cut a wide swath through the residential section of Mill Valley. across the bay from here and razed many beautiful summer homes in the wooded canyons nearby, apparently was under control today. but con- tinued to burn upward on the slopes of Mount Tamalpais, it's scenic back ground.
 Loss May Be Million
 The extent of the loss remained to be determined, but unofficial esti- mates ranged from $500,000 to S1,- 100000. Fire department estimates indicated that about 200 homes, in cluding several that contained costly art and literary collections, had been destroyed or badly damaged. A stiff breeze, which made it's ap- pearancc when the flames were lick ing the fringes of the business dis trict, aided the army of 4,000 fire fighters in turning the confagration away from the town shortly after midnight. The fire then leaped up Cascade canyon. along the west slope of Mount Tamalpais. but fremen be- lieved it could do little damage in that direction.

San Francisco, Cal, July 3 P}- Fire in the picturesque town of Mill Valley across the bay north of here, continued to burn fiercely today de- spite the efforts of a hastily organ ized body of fire fighters, who were handicapped by lack of water.

COLD WAVE And
STORMS SWEEP
COUNTRY; 8 DIE
Worst Snowfall of Winter
Blankets East; West
Bears Brunt.

BIZ United Press
Frigid breezes threatened tot,ay to
keep the northern half of the United
States snow covered for another
twenty-four hours, although the
dangers and inconvenience of snow :.
piled streets and roads were giving
way before efforts to clear the high
ways.
Temperatures generally were sub
normal, but weather conditions were
good for the country except for rain
over the north Pacific coastal re-
gion. Coolest weather was reported
from Minnesota, Iowa and North
Dakota and the heaviest snowfall
bIanketed Vermont and Maine.
Moderate temperatures were re-
ported from the Rocky Mountain
region and thermometers in the mid
eastern sections were rising from ex-
tremely low points, with the pros
pect of a fall tonight.
Snow Blankets East
Seven to twenty inches of snow
blanketed the eastern and New
England states. Bismarck, N. D.,
reported Is degrees below zero.
Flagstaff, Ariz., which usually is
heard from only in the summer
time, considered 8 above rather cold
today.
With the exception of discom-
future to traffic, both on sea and
land, the storm has been unusually
free from suffering. Though with
higher temperatures generally than
the west, the east reports the only
deaths. In the eastern metropolitan
area eight lives lost were attributed
to the storm.
The southeastern tip Of the
northern snow storm struck parts
of balmy Carolinas, Tennessee, Ala
bama and Georgia. Snow and hours
of driving sleet were their lot.
Throughout the country the snow
fall was regarded as the worst of the
Winter, IN LIlS east particularly SlIlC6
optimists were certain they would
escape the season unscathed.
Northwest Bears Brunt
The northwest bore the brunt of
the blizzard. 1t howled across the
state of Montana, Colorado, Wyo-
ming and Utah, leaving giant drifts
which tied up road traffic. Butte
and Helena, Mont, were virtually
cut off. The st. George Lake re-
gion was isolated. Railroad crews
succeeded in reaching Silvertown,
Colo, isolated for many days by
heavy SHOWS. The town received its
first fresh food since Feb. 8.
One man was injured when the
train bucking the immense drifts,
jumped the track in the effort. An
other train, loaded with passengers,
left the tracks in a drift near Sun
burst, Mont, killing fireman, Paul
Greening.

Dentistry's Lineage Is
Traced Back to
600 B. c.

ST. Louis, March 20 u.N.sl.--
According TO DR. Arthur NJ. Black,
Dean OF Northwestern University
Dental School,. dentistry goes back
to 500 B. C. He said Paul Revere
studied dentistry in Boston. The
first book on dentistry he said,
was published in German In 1874,
and the last chapter Of this work
was devoted to a treatise telling
how to stop falling hair by treat
ment of the teeth.
The first dental college was
established in Boston in 1889 and
those who practiced the trade"
went around "}ast like scissors
grinders and umbrella members"
said the dean.
