BERLIN, August 25.-Mrs. Sinclair
Lewis, who writes under her maiden
pame of Dorothy Thompson, today
was ordered by the secret police to
leave Germany within "a hours.
The banishment order against the
wife of the Nobel prize winner was
based on her alleged hostile attitude
toward Germany.
Mrs. Lewis recently has written
many magazine articles on Germany
and the Hitler movement. 1t was
privately reported that an interview
with Hitler which she published in
magazine before he came to power
had much to do with the expulsion
order.
Although she has been here scarcely
a week, she is leaving tonight by the
North Express for Paris.

AS a spectacle for tourists the dance
was an unqualified success. The
dancers used more than 200 snakes, at
least three -fourthS of which were

Indian officials estimated that more
than 5000 persons, the largest crowd
ever TO see a snake dance, witnessed
the ritual. The mesa was so jammed
that Indian police began turning Wis
itors away an hour before the dance
started. Roofs of dwellings cracked
under the weight of hundreds.
A group OF co-eds from an Eastern

SANATOR|UM SITE
REPORT IS SECRET
Experts Leave ReCommen-
dation With Ickes, Who
Keeps Silent.

A definite recommendation Of a site
for the proposed adult tuberculosis
hospital for the District of Columbia
was submitted to Secretary Ickes to-
day by the committee of three ex-
perts appointed by him at the direc-
ton of President Roosevelt. But the
recommendation remained secret.
For the present, at least, Secretary
Ickes refuses to divulge contents of
the report. This tends to strengthen
the belief expressed in medical circles
here, that the experts, after all, had
decided the Glenn Dale site was pref
cradle to other locations In nearby
mountainous regions.
Unable to See Secretary.
The committee concluded its work
yesterday, but was unable to see the
Secretary because of a cabinet meet
ing at the White House. Members
called this morning at Ickes' office
and submitted their recommendations.
The audience with the Secretary
covered about 2 minutes, part of
which was taken up with greetings.
DR.. Lawrason Brown of Truteau
Sanitarium, Saranac Lake. N. Y,
chairman of the committee, said
afterward the matter was in Secre-
tary Ickes' hands now and that he
was leaving for home on the first
train. He said he could not, discuss
the recommendations.
The two other members of the
committee are Col. c. D. Buck, Fitz-
simons General Hospital, Denver, and
DR.. Charles M. Griffith of the Vet
erans' Administration here. They also
were bound by the promise of secrecy
with which Secretary Ickes Is sur
rounding the whole hospital question.
Officials of the Public Works Ad-
ministration, who have been following
the local hospital controversy, indi-
Gated that Secretary Ickes would take
up the matter with the President be-
fore making public the report or an
nouncing his own decision.
No Locations Divulged.
None of the exact locations of the
five sites outside of Washington which
the committee inspected was divuIged
because of the fear property owners
would boost prices excessively If they
thought the Government really was
interested in acquiring a large tract
of mountain land. For the same rea-
son, it is possible, Secretary Ickes is
withholding the recommendations of
the committee in event they have de-
cided on one of the sites inspected
near Bluemont, Va, and in the vicinity
of Braddock Heights, Md.
President Roosevelt entered the pic
ture about 10 days ago when he
ordered Secretary Ickes to appoint
committee of outside experts. headed
by DR.. Brown, whom the President
named himself
The Presidents committee visited
the sites in nearby mountain districts
Thursday and yesterday morning went
to Glenn Dale, where the children's
tuberculosis sanatorium already has
been built.

SPIDER CONQUERING SCORPION,
PINCERS USELESS AGAINST WEB

is bound to win if left to its own de-
vices. Slowly it has wrapped its cling
ing strands about the forelegs Of the
scorpion, to which the pincers are at
tached. They have become swollen
and paralyZed.
Conserving its energy, the spider
works in regular shifts, going out to
do battle every few hours and then
retiring for an equal length of time
to gain new strength.
The work of the spider is slower
now than at fitst, for it has not
fought without injury. One leg and
part of another have been sheared
away by the scorpion, which lies inert
until its enemy approaches and then
rouses itself viciously to resist the
spiders efforts to bind up Its danger

Il DUCE AbANDONS
VISIT TO FUEHRER
MussoIini Had Planned on
Conference at Home in
BerChtesgaden.
BY the Associated Press.

ROME. August 25.-The proposed
visit of Premier Mussolini to Chancel-
lor Hitler this Autumn, to return Der
Fuehrer's" visit to II Duce in June, is
definitely off, it was indicated in gov
ernment circles today.
1t had been expected the Italian
prel..ier would meet Hitler at the lat
ter's home at BerchteSgaden, near
Munich, in October or November.
Government sources said the de-
velopments in Austria, which have
caused a decided cleavage between
Germany and Italy, now preclude the
possibility of such a meeting.
The assassination of Mussolini's
close personal friend, the late Chan
cellor Dollfuss, which was attributed
by the Italian press indirectly to Ger
many, has removed from II Duce's
mind all thought of visiting the Ger
man chancellor, these circles pointed
out.
At the conclusion of the Venice
meeting an official communique was
issued saying the personal contact be-
tween the two premiers would be con-
tinued in the future.

There will be no football game
for the V. M. I. Flying Squadron
this week, but the Cadets face
two hard games next week. This
Saturdays scheduled game with
Maryland at College Park has
been shifted to Monday at the
Baltimore municipal stadium. On
the following Saturday the Cadets
will travel into North Carolina
to meet Davidson.
The Cadets will face the Old
Liners with the same team that
registered V. M. rs first victory
of the season by defeating viii.
liam and Mary at Norfolk. In
addition, Eddie Law and Dick
Dodson, pony backs who have
been on the hospital list, will be
ready for the Terrapins.
Two husky lines and a collec.
ton of flashy backs will furnish
the fireworks when V. M. I. and
Maryland clash in the thirteenth
game of their series. The Cadets
have three hard running ball car
riers in Bo McMillin, Meredith
Urick, and Wayt Clark. while the
Terrapins boast almost an en-
barrassment of backfield riches.

DUKE, DEACON
BATTLE

DURHAM, N. c., Nov. 8.-Fea.
turing q clash of two powerful
forward walls, Duke and Wake
Forest promise quite a battle in
their annual Big Five engagement
in Duke Stadium Saturday after
noon.
The husky and strong Deacon
line will give the Blue Devil for
wards quite an assignment Satur-
day. Outweighed even more than
they were last week by Auburn.
the Duke line will have to depend
on the same method they took to
finally push over the Plainsmen-
their everlasting fight.
Everything that goes to make
good football game will be Of.
fered by the Deacons and the Blue
Devils. Both teams have hard
running backs and hard-charging
linemen. It is true that Dukes
record for the season is more i'm
pressive than that of the Deacons,
but Wake Forest appears to have
a way of evening up things when
they are facing a team with a
higher ranking.
If the Duke line can function,
Duke followers will look to the
running of Corky Cornelius, Jack
Alexander and Clarence Parker to
furnish the margin of victory. 1t
is a hard job to stop all three OF
these boys when they start the
Duke offense to rolling.
Wake Forest, too, has ball-carry-
ing threats. The Duke forwards
will have to keep a close watch on
Edans and Kitchin, a pair of
great sophomore backs, if they ex-
pect to go up to the big game with
North Carolina next week unde-
feated in the Big Five.
It is an announced intention of
the Deacons to beat Duke. They
set their caps for that very thing
after the Blue Devils defeated
them last year, and it is highly
probable that they were thinking
about the Duke game when they
were preparing for their game last
week.
