As far as. we could see war toys aren't any great threat to dolls and electric trains. The most popular item seems to be a tank which will tip 'end over end. The tank seems to be heating out the toy tractor this year. There were plenty of tin sol diers available, all in khaki. They seemed to be armed with Mr. Hoover's and Mr. Lindbergh's defensive weapons." You can get tin soldiers pointing a tin search- light at an imaginary bomber and I another aiming a quite deadly I looking anti-aircraft gun. The most warlike items are some real la tic lookine field pieces that seem to be modeled after the French 75s. While we were looking over the toys we ran into Mr. Bernard I Akers of Huntington, west ginia, who does nothing day in and day out but play with two yo- yos. When we fist saw him Mr. I Akers was wrapping two spinning I yo-yos around his middle ana making the wood parts end up in I his coat pockets.- I Mr. Akers was stopping traffic I In the middle of the five and ten cent store with his tricks and selU yo-yo now and then, a task he performs for ; the D. P. Dunean To-Yo company ef Chicago. He has been, he told us, doing it for five years now and has sold car loads of yo-yos. There are a lot of yo-yos in a carload. , Mr. Akers goes from store to tore where Duncan yc-yos are sold and spends a day in each one. Be doesn't mind It, he says, ex cept that dropping yo-yos In his pockets from all angles is. kind of tough on his suits. Mr. Akers says the trick the crowds like best is the "skyrock et" in which he tosses a yo-yo al most to the ceiling and catches it In his Inside coat pocket when It comes spinning down the string, when it is right at the top he says "Look at it, way up there. Looks just like the moon, but It'll be stars if it hits the wrong place." .. . We only saw him miss once ana i rrrrj tt 1 A 1 that was because he bad 'tHVlJ Head AdVlSCS leu nuu m w - pocket. Another little item he likea is when he passes the yo-yo behind his back, clear around his body and into his right hand coat pock et. He rarely misses on that one. There are others like "walking the dog," "around the world," and "rocketting the Baby Ruth" which are quite simple.

The mob formed in front of the hall at 8 p. m., an hour before the dance designed as a counter- attraction to a Finnish patriotic meeting was scheduled to begin. Booing and catcalling, they com menced throwing rocks at tne building, in which a small group of communist dance officials had already gathered. The commun ist immediately beat a retreat through a rear door as the lead ers of the mob were storming the vir-iirom uoor. I Communists Go Out I Back Door - , By the time the first of the moD bad succeeded in breaking down the door, all the commun ists within had fled. The lead ers then proceeded to rip up flooring inside the hall, to wreck a piano and to tear out plumbing, flooding the lower part of the three-story building. Meanwhile, others were throw ing rocks through all windows in the structure and tearing down all remaining doors. Some ripped shingles off the -roof and siding off the walls, making a huge lumber pile as the base for a bon fire on which pictures of Stalin, Browder and other Russian and American communists were burned. Police made no immediate ar rests; and the desk officer at police headquarters denied to the Associated Press that any violence had occurred. "There was no dance," he said. "I haven't beard of anything at the Workers hall or anywhere else."
