Held by Guards The ski stadium was the srene of wildest excitement when members of the Nazi labor service corps blocked the exits for two hours until Hitler and his official party departed.

The milling crowd, struggling to leave or to catch a glimpse of the leaders shoved and screamed and was held firmly but roughly in check by the guards. Two persons were injured, several fainted and many were bruised and scratched in the jam. Officials estimated the total attendance during the ten days of the games at about one million, of whom 800,000 paid admissions to various events.

The failure of the government to give out any official reports on the election results led to a belief that the Leftists had proved stronger than had hitherto been admitted, in their campaign against the gov ernment center rightist coalition for seats in the new parliament. SENATOYCLARK IS FINED $4000 (Continued From Page 1) might seriously effect the duration of life." Leaves With Counsel Clark colored slightly as he heard the sentence. He left the courtroom immediately after the proceedings in company with his son and his chief counsel, Maurice R. Metzger. Barter Attempt Charge Clark was convicted last Autumn of attempting to barter his legis lative influence for State insurance business near the close of the Gen eral Assembly session.

Democratic legislators and gov ernment officials made the charges, which promptly were denied by the veterans political leader, who coun tered that he himself was ap proached by New Dealers. At Clark's trial the Commonwealth presented a "mechanical witness," a voice recording device. Records played in the courtroom were described to the jury repro ducing a conversation between Clark and the Democratic leaders. In a futile appeal for a new trial, Clark's counsel vigorously assailed use of the mechanical device. The Senate named a committee of three Republicans to investigate the charges against Clark as well as the Senator's claim that he and other party leaders had been of fered patronage favors if they wo'tild support a bill to remove William McNair" as mayor tpf Pittsburgh.

The bill was defeated in the Senate. The hearings were suspended before the Christmas holidays. Critical Heart Attack Dr. iMcAlister and (Dr. Dickey testified they treated the Senator after he collapsed in the State Capitol March 18, 1935.

Both said he suffered a critical heart attack failure and expressed the opinion a jail sentence would be detrimental to his health. Dr. Gifford said he examined Clark last month and submitted ray photographs showing the left side of the heart enlarged. He said the examination also disclosed a hardening of the blood vessels feeding the heart muscles. Recurring Attacks Dr.

Klevand, the Clark family physician and the Senator's son, told of recurring attacks. He described Clark as a "very poor patient," persisting in continuing active in the face of warnings for his health. Dr. Clark said his father's condition was not improving and that the veteran Republican leader, who is 59, suffered another serious attack in December, 1935. 4 DISCIPLINE AND FIRE RISKS PROBE (Continued From Page 1) 'conduct a mop up" to get every fact.

She's the one who switches 'em in and dials them out. Her right arm was stiffened by excessive dialing and her soprano voice was husky from "numDer pleases."

TICKET Committee Named to Call on State Chairman Taylor Pennsylvania's Republican war veterans have sent word to the State committee that the Organization ticket, which they termed an "ox cart" ticket, must be redrafted to mclude at least one former service man. A committee was appointed at a meeting of the veterans' executive committee Saturday to call upon M. Harvey Taylor, State chairman, this week to urge that he drop out as a candidate for auditor general or that Frank E. Baldwin, Auditor General and candidate for State Treasurer, make way for a younger candidate who served in the world War. Veterans leaders said they will at tempt to arrange a conference with old guard Republicans and that they will recommend immediately re vamping of the ticket "in the in terests of harmony and co tion."

It was said in these clippings that pick and shovel work was the most effective. The plan here, officials said, is similar to the one in New York. First they clear the streets; then haul it away "as fast as possible." It had been suggyted that the fire department use its equipment to wash some of the slush down the sewers but this was decided against by Councilman Haps Frank for three reasons. He "It might freeze if we'd get low temperatures.

The sewers might not carry it away and besides it would be quite a strain on our hose, which must be kept In shape for fires."

They were on a ring with three automobile keys. Widow Guarded Previous to this the authorities ran up against the usual blank wall of imperturbability surrounding un derworld crimes.
