DarIan Is Expected
To Reopen ParIeYs
With Laval in Paris
Rene BeIin, Minister of
Labor at Viehy, Said
To Have Resigned
BY the Associated Press.

VICHY, France, Feb. 17.-Rene
Belin, the Vichy governments min
lister of labor, was reported to have
resigned today amid suggestions
that Vice Premier Admiral Jean
Darlan would leave soon for Paris
to reopen discussions with Pierre
Laval, his predecessor as chief aide
to Chief of State Marshal Philippe
Petain.
M. Belin's resignation was expect
ed to complete the present series
of cabinet changes. unless M. Laval
should win his fight to be restored
to a place in the government and
necessitate further adjustments.
There were reports in Vichy po-
litical circles that Admiral Darlan
might offer M. Laval the vice presi-
dency of the Council of Ministers
if he would return to the govern
ment and Marshall Petain was re-
ported to be receiving all govern
ment ministers and secretaries at
a luncheon to discuss possible fu-
ture cabinet changes.
Darlan May Head Council.
If M. Laval accepted, these sources
said, Admiral Darlan probably would
become president of the council, an
office now held by Marshal Petain.
An answer to question what
Marshal Petain'S status would be-
come under such change, a. dis
patch from Vichy said it was be
lieved Petain would step aside to
become e" and there the dis
patch was broken off by the
censor. Previously, however,
French dispatches have pictured
the possibility of Marshal Petains
withdrawal to a less active role
as only chief of StateD

effort to bring together Marshal
Petain's National Propaganda Com
mittee and Popular National

Paris Group Backs Collaboration.
Marshal Petain's committee of 81
members was formed Jan % to
solidify French public opinion be-
hind his government. The Paris
committee, repeatedly backed by M.
Laval, stands for full and immed-
late collaboration with Germany.
Admiral Darlan had only one cab
met post, Minister of the Navy, when
he had his last talks with M. Laval
in Paris early this month. He be-
came vice president of council and
Foreign Minister February 9, retain

Coach Hap Hardell will send a
four-man posse to New York this

today.
Al Blozis will defend his shotput

on choice to do so, but his team
mates will seek track honors in fast
moving company.
The remainder of the lineup finds
Morty Alnwick running in the $40,
Ken Lyden in the $50 and Jack
Doolan in the sprints.
Doolan will be pitted against such
stars as Penn States Barney Ewell,
who travels the century in 9.6 con-
sistently and won last years compe-
tition with a 81 dash. The Negro
star took last years 220 crown in
20.9, which isn't exactly loafng.
Carter of Pitt, Diebolt of Colgate,
jackson Of Princeton, Owen of Yale,
Heinbokel of Dartmouth and Kroupa
of Penn are others the Hoya speed
ster must face.
Alnwick and Lyden are changing
places in the lineup and Hardell
thinks it will be better for both bows.
Lyden will have to beat such times
as the 1885 of PENIS Belyea and
the 1:55 and 1855, respectively, of
