NAYS STORM TROOPS HINGED AROUND BERLIN
 OFFER CRAVE FEARS

BERLIN, Aug, Is, Germany reached the crossroads in it's poli- tical troubles Saturday as Adolf Hitler demanded control of the gov ernment during visit to President von Hindenburg. The visit lasted about 20 minutes but when the Ma zis chieftain left the palace it was only after he had told the Presi- dent that he would stop at noth- ing short of the Chancellorship.
 This deadlock is said by political observers to offer grave possibili- ties. Fears are also entertained that Nazis storm troops may cause inn mediate trouble. It is a we'll known fact that these men are ringed around Berlin and are said to be prepared for stern measures.
 The only break in the deadlock that can result now is for Franz von Papen and Schleicher, the real power behind the present govern ment, to accede to the Hitler de- mand.

ITALIAN CREW ALMOST BEAT HOLDEN BEARS
 CLOSE OLYMPIC RACE

LOS ANGELES, Aug, 15, -Ihe American flag was unfurled on high again Saturday as the great California Golden Bear 8-oared rowing team came in winner in the 2.00o meter Olympic Games race. Four shells lined up at the start ing line and when the gun went of1' all four literally leaped into actlon as the bronzed arms made clean sweeps with their oars.
 The crowd of 75,000 people who watched the race started to cheer immediately from the start ana they continued to do SO until the end which proved one of the clo- sest in rowing history.
 The Italian oarsmen jumped ln- to the lead from the start with their high-strokes but the U. $. entry, Great Britain and Cana dian entries were right behind. It. ally kept this short lead for about 600 or 700 meters and up until the last lap or about 25 yards from the finish line. However, at this polnt, California's powerful crew reach ed way down with their lower ana stronger stroke and caught up with the Italian boat, just managing to put their shell across the finish line with a scant tWo-foot margin.
 From certain angles in the spec tator stands it looked like the 1tal- ian team won but the judges as we'll as the spectators who were directly on the line clearly saw the California's team was. the victor. Scarcely one-fifth of a second se- parated the two shells as they crossed the finish line.
 Canada and Great Britain made an equal fight for third place with Canada taking the honorS. The 4 boats were so closely punched at the finish that there was not day. light between.
 The Californian's ran the course ia little more than six minutes. By their victory they retained the title which they won at the Olym- pic Games in Amsterdam in 1928.
 Oldtimers of and 4 Olym- pic Games said that the race at the Long Beach marine stadium was the greatest they had ever wit messed.

One of the most remarkable dis

active metal, uranium, which gradu-

Tit-Bits. The rate at which this
process is carried out is well known,
and it is invariable. BY taking rocks
which contain both uranium and lead
and finding the proportion of each
metal now existing in them, the
length of time necessary to bring
about the present state of affairs is
not difficult to calculate. Such
calculation shows that the earth
