 Car Routes Changed
 As far as can be ascertained. there will hereafter be no street cars crossing Exchange place from west to east or east to west ex- cept on special occasions or in emergency. The Oakville and Will low street cars, instead of crossing Exchange place, will after Sunday turn at the southeast corner of the Green.
 The new restricted parking area was established by the board at the request of Mayor Frank Hayes, who pointed out that such a reg ulation would help eliminate fur ther traffic congestion about the center and the Green.
 Further parking regulations about the center are now being con- sidered by the traffic committee of the police board and they may be suggested and passed at tomor- rows meeting of the group.

 United Press dispatches from New Haven and Shelton compared the method used in the hi-jacking to those employed in recent sim liar cases in New Haven and Lyme At Lyme truck load of cosmetics owned by the Carroll Cut Rate company was hi-jacked of mer- rhandise valued at $25,000 and the driver found bound and gagged in a Yalesville swamp. At New Hav- en, a few weeks later, the Adley express company had one of it's trucks footed of merchadise worth $20,O00 and the driver locked up in a shack at Woodbridge.
 During the past two years there have been 21 major hi-jackings in this state, involving loss of goods worth more than a half-million dollars.

 q entered the plot on one con- dition-that blood would not be she'd" he said. After I entered the chancellery and found that my superior had not arrived l told Major (EmiD Fey Cthen security commissar, now minister of inter- ior) that l did not know what 10 do.
 q discussed things with Fey. That is not the method 1 should have used if I had wanted to start civil war. l acted only for love of my people and my fatherland."
 Planetta turned pale and Holz- weber flushed when tentence was passed.
 Both stood at military attention.
 Immediately before the verdict, the court building was occupied by company of regular troops.
 In the courtyard, the gallows, a long pole on a small platform, stood waiting.
 The accused were led away si- lently. Planetta's sister and sister in-law wept audibly.

 Nazis Make Threats
 The Nazis have threatened to blow up St Stephens Cathedral and kill priests if Nazis are hanged.
 The hanging was grim busl- ness. No one was allowed to see :t Troops occupied the court building and machine guns were placed m the entrance, pointing into the streets.
 Newspapermen and spectators who attended the trial were forced to leave.

 Vienna. July 31-(UP)-Declar ing war to the death of Nazism, a military court today sentenced Otto Planetta and Franz Holzweb- CT to be hanged for the murder of Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss.
 It was expected that the sen- tence would be carried out within the customary three hours in the courtyard of a prison building here.
 Nazis, though apparently crushed for the moment, had threatened civil war if the men were exc cuted.
 Soldiers Heimwehr men and po- liceswere alert all over the country for the first signs of new revolt, which this time might plunge the
 o;t nd ed in Europe for many years.
 To Imprison Them All
 Before the death sentence, the government announced that all Nazis captured, even if they were not sentenced to death or to prison, would be taken to concentration camps and put to forced labor.
 Their property, it was said, would be confiscated.
 Vice-Chancellor Prince Ernst Rudiger von Starhemberg took personal command of all the semi military organizations, comprised in the Fatherland front, in addition to his own Heimwehr men.
 It seemed that the government, despairing of compromise with the Nazis, sought a showdown that would turn page Tn the country $ history and decide the issue be- tween fascism and Nazism, either peacefully or at the cost of civil war.
 The First Victim
 It was intimated that Holzweber, the 25-year-old electrician, with a wife and 1-2-year-o child, would hang first. and that immedi- ately afterword Planetta, Dollfuss' confessed murderer, would follow him to the short hanging post.
 Planetta is 35, married and has no children. He is a former army sergeant, short, stocky. blue eyed, of military appearance, whereas Holzweber looks like a student, his eyes bespectacled.
 Planetta was charged with the actual murder. Holzweber. his inn mediate superior in the Nazi or

EAGLES SEEK
VICTORIES
ON TRIP

What hopes, what aims, what
possibilities!
The attitude has been just like
that at American University all
these years, but in each season
there's been that certain some
thing lacking to make the school
term a complete success.
When it hasn't been football, It's
been basketball that has needed
that punch which goes with sue
cess in sports events. When it
hasn't been these two sports, its
been something else.
But on the whole, the little in
s+:Sution out Massachusetts, Ave-
nue. way has stuck together, has
weathered all storms, and can even
be said to have figured in moral
5ories, even though odds, many
times, have offered mountainous
handicaps.
Like An Elevator
Now, what we're trying to get at
Is this. The Eagles, as sport
teams at the school are called,
have had their share of ups and
downs in sports events this season.
The football C a mp a gn proved
nightly discouraging because Of a
sad lacking in material.
The basketball season, although
it's just started, promises to be al
most as diScouraging, because that
same lacking in material is notice.
able in the squad.
But wait! Coach Walter Young
and his gallant army Of merry
men have something to say here.
In fact, they voiced their little
speech before they departed for
Lynchburg, Va, yesterday where
the Eagles fell before Lynchburg
College, 37-17 in the opening game
of their Virginia invasion last
night.
"We'll show 'em yet," they
said. "Well show 'em, even
though we might lose every
game on this Southern trip of
ours. We know we lack smooth
ness Of play, experience, all-star
talent and the like. But we'll
show 'em before the season is
ended that basketball at least
will bring American University
to a place in the sun again
among college teams locally"
Looking Forward
With this spirit, American Uni
versity jumps into another basket
ball season. The school, forget
ting football and the discouraging
hours spent in that sport, is look
ing forward to hours when basket
ball will again become powerful
and attractive sport.
It was that way once upon a
time, and it can be again, the fel.
lows say. All of which offers an
excellent mental attitude for the
teams remaining games on the
present trip, which includes skirm-
ishes against Hampden-Sidney at
Farmville, Va, tonight; Elon Col
lege at Elon, N. c., tomorrow
night and Guilford College at Gil
ford, N. c., Saturday night.
