ADDS ABABA, July 7.-While her colonial armies are busy trying to put down balky Ethiopian tribes men who refuse to accept Italian domination of this ancient African Kingdow, Italys Empire builders are reconstructing Halle Selassie's old capital.
 Military and administrative buildings, restaurants, bars, cin- emas, and shops have sprung up among the native mud-huts and Greek and Armenian shops. Pave ments have been built and roads resurfaced.
 Many of the main centers of ac- tivity are being transferred to fresh quarters. The ancient great market has been moved to the district where the American lega tion formerly stood. In it's place modern roads lined by shops have been constructed.
 The industrial and commercial center is to be moved to the Filoa district, near the railway station. This quarter, formerly swampy, has now been drained, and is dom mated by military buildings of modern architecture surrounded

BOXER MAKING ANOTHER TRIP
 INTO BER|NC
Famed Vessel Stops Here on Way to Arctic for
 Summer Voyage

The Bureau of Indian Affairs sup ply ship Boxer, famed old veteran of the Arctic, passed through Ju- neau today on its way into the storms and fogs of shallow Boring Sea.
 Capt Ellsworth Bush said the Boxer will make a total of 68 stops on the present trip which began in Seattle June 29 Loaded deeply, the Boxer has a big deck cargo of lum- Der, gasoline and miscellaneous sup plies, and a hold filled with more of the necessities of fife that will feed Eskimos and their teachers through the long winter.
 On this first trip of the sum- mer, the Boxer will go as far north as Bethel and will then return to Seward for more supplies and an- other Arctic voyage, which will end sometime in late November.
 Passengers aboard the Boxer are MT. and Mrs. Lloyd Barnes, bound for Akiak where Barnes is a teacher; Frieda Jacobsen, a teacher at Beth el; Mrs. George Adams, and son, four, bound for Seward and rail trip to Mt. Mckinley National Park where Mrs. Adams husband is doc tor for the CCC crews; Gibson Young for Sitka.
 MT. and Mrs. George Fleisch- mann, and daughter, T, disem- parked from the Boxer here and will go to Panama Crossing to teach.
 Charles w. Hawkesworth, Assis- tant Director of Education, boarded the Boxer here to make the round trip to Bethel on an inspection tour.
 The Boxer was built in 1904 dur ing the Boxer rebellion as a Navy training ship, and converted to Boring Sea duty. She is 165 feet long, heavily built of wood, and is considered one of the best sea boats that ever went through Unimak Pass.

Special Submarine For Arctic Waters Described, Wilkins

OSLO, July "A $150,O00 stain less steel submarine for use as permanent weather bureau under the ice at the north pole is envls- aged by Sir Hubert Wilkins, Arctic explorer and Antarctic aviator.
 Sir Hubert says weather reports must be greatly improved before regular air route can be established across the polar icefields.
 The only effective way to secure f,,ch reports is to have a floating headquarters, and that headquart- CTS must be under the ice because the ice masses are in constant G41t," he says.
 "A submarine could remain at the north pole for three years. Food and equipment would be supplied by airplanes, which landed on the ice before winter began.
 Life in such a submarine would be quite comfortable, as the tenn perature of the Arctic ocean is only g degrees Fahrenheit, although the air is intensely cold"
 Sir Hubert says he has perfected an instrument which would drill a hole through the ice from the submarine, so scientists could get to the surface to take observations.

Clay Miller, who lives on the

Wytheville and said that he found
them. He reported the theft to the
Virginia officers and Wednesday

Chicago Cubs Win
National Pennant
Pulled Ahead OF Pirates AT The
Last NJ n u t e. To Play
Yankees In Series.

Sportsmans Park, St. Louis, Mo-,
Oct. 1.-The Chicago Cubs, crippled
but courageous, sewed up their
third National league pennant in
seven. years by plastering the st.
Louis Cards, 10 to 3, in the second
game of a wild-eyed double-header
here today while their last rivals,
the Pittsburgh Pirate, were bowling
in Cincinnati.
The victory, scored in 17-hit at
tack on four St. Louis pitchers,
placed Gabby Harnett's scrappers
two full games ahead of the Pirates
and placed tomorrow's concluding
game in the light of an exhibition
It climaxed a pennant surge which
saw the Clubs, standing fourth only
two months ago, win Fl of their
last Is games and out game the op-
position.
When Charlie Root, 39-year-old
veteran of IS campaigns with the
Cubs, forced Lynn Myers of the
Cards to pop up for the final out in
the ninth inning, his exuberant
teammates rused to the mound and
hoisted him upon their shoulders
and carried him in triumph to the
clubhouse. Root hurled masterful
ball, allowing only two scratch hits
in the last six innings after he had
got off to a shaky start.

hospital a county institution, sub
NIT an application to WPA and en-
deavor to get financial support from
the Duke ENDOWMENT Fund and
thereby, if successful, assure the
county of getting an adequate, mod
ern hospital building, at minimum
cost to the citizens of the county in
providing the sponsors part of the
institution. Prof R. E. L. Plummer
drew up set of plans and they
were gone over at the second meet
ing of the committee.
The final decision of the last meet
ing was for the finance committee,
composed of J. B. Hash, chairman,
R. E. L. Plummer, Dean Mcmillan,
C. B. Price and Rev. r. H. Stone-to
contact the Duke Endowment, lay
the cards on the table and solicit
their aid. This organization has as
sisted in the construction of hospit-
ais throughout North and South
Carolina and it is stated that one of
it's detectives is the ultimate estab-
lishment of a hospital in every coun-
ty in the state.
Many who are interested in the
movement contend that the county
could easily assist in securing the
location and Mr.. Crutchfield, dis
! trict WPA supervisor, has assured
,. them that he believes it will be an
easy matter to- get WPA approval
on the building and states that good
labor is available as the Lansing
school building is now virtually
completed.
Members of the committees agreed
that if the Duke Endowment could
not be persuaded to give aid at this
time, that it would be advisable to
submit WPA application.
In event both of those proposed
plans fall through, private hospital
would be splendid undertaking.

Large Crowd Witnessed Game
Last Friday.

Using some Of the most deceptive
plays ever executed by a high school
team, Lansing Skylanders won a
smashing 26-to-0 victory over Cross
more High last Friday afternoon be-
fore crowd of $500 people.
Joe Allen Warren, fast and elus-
i've Lansing halfback, scored two
touchdowns with practically no in
reference on fake double reverse,
one of which was a 60-yard run, and
Horace Stike, triple-threat fullback,
took the pigskin over the goal for
the other two touchdowns.
Stike charged through center on
another fake reverse play and made
a beautiful 4O-yard' dash. Three of
these unexpected scores came in the
first and third quarters and seemed
to have demoralized the strong
Crossnore eleven. By blocking a
punt on the 2O-yard line the visitors
threatened to score once, but Lam
sings alert line in which Campbell
and James are the shining lights,
held them on downs. This was the
first Appalachian High School Con
ference game of the season. With
two well-carved victories to their
credit the Skylanders are now fav-
ed to win the championship.
