ATHLETES GIVEN
ALL COURTESIES
By VIRGIL P1NKLEY

Garmlsch - Partenklrchen, Ger
many, Feb. 15 (LP) Germany has
lived up to every promise and ex
ceeded all expectations in its stag
ing of the fourth Olympic winter
games, Avery Brundage, president
of the A A. U. and the American
Olympic committee, said today.
Courtesy shown by German offi
cials to all nations competing here
will go a long way toward silencing
critics who were opposed to the
summer games being at Berlin,
Brundage believes.
"I think Germany has leaned over
backward in carrying out to the
letter the true spirit of Internation
al sportsmanship," Brundage said.
"Even the most ardent opponent to
American participation could find
nothing to complain about were he
here."
Replying to orltics at home who
are still opposed to the United
States competing at Berlin, Brun
dage said:
"The contention of the American
Olympic committee that American
sports should not be concerned with
political matters has been more
than Justified at Garmlsch-Parten-kirchen.
The German organization
of the winter games has been the
best we ever encountered and that
goes for our games at Lake Placid
four years ago.
"The international committee Is
In complete charge during the run
ning of the games. The Olympic flag
flies higher than those of any na
tioneven above that of the home
country while the games are in
progress."

CONVICTS SEE
DEATH BY GAS
Canon City, Colo., Feb. 18 OT
His calmness broken In the final
minutes, Otis McDaniels, 30, was ex
ecuted In the Colorado penitentiary
gas chamber last night for the
shooting of Montezuma county
Sheriff W. W. Dunlap.
With the svne stoicism that
marked his actions the last two
weeks, McDaniels sat in his cell and
heard Warden Roy Best read the
death warrant at 7:30 pjn., and sev
en minutes later, his poise begin-
ing to weaken, he entered the small,
box like death house.
At 7:51, the warden locked the
door, and seconds later several small
pills rolled down a chute from the
back wall and fell Into a pan ot acid
under McDaniel's chair.
As the white death fumes drifted
slowly upward over McDaniels' body
and toward his face, his composuie
broke. Teeth clenched and lips seal
ed, he held his breath after the first
trtsp reached his nose and inhaled
sparingly when forced to.
Warden Best disclosed today ne
permitted several convicts to wit
ness the execution last night of Otis
McDaniels, 30 year old convicted
murderer. .
"It Is the first time In the history
of the prison such a thing has been
done, but I believe It was the most
Impressive experience the convicts
ever had," Best said.
"It brought vividly to them the
fact that crime definitely do;s not
pay and showed them Just what a
death sentence means."
The warden did not disclose the
names of the convicts.
ITALIAN DRIVE
BEING PUSHED
Rome, Feb. 15 VP) Marshall Ple-
tro Badogllo reported "Intense ac
tivity" on the northern front to
day while usually informed sources
said a vigorous Italian offensive
was being pushed there.
The official war communique,
sent from the Italian northern
headquarters by the commander in
chief said:
"On the Erltrean front, there Is
Intense activity by patrols south
of Makale. On the Somaltland
front, the situation Is unchanged.'
Informed sources said the new
northern drive was designed to give
Italy absolute control over the
mountainous Temblen sector, where
stubborn native resistance has been
encountered.
The new maneuver was described
as an effort to solidify Marshal
Pietro Badogllo's position on a line
frmo Abbl Addl, about 25 miles
west of Makale, west to the conflu
ence of the Takkaze and Uerl riv
ers. Skeleton advices said the action
was proceeding thus far In Italy's

Washington,, Feb. 15 (Pi Startled
by a legal blow threatening to
scramble Its $4,000,000,000 work re

plans today to fight the Issue up to
the supreme court if necessary.

George W. Welsh ruled In Philadel

If Judge Walsh's ruling should

In the $4,000,000,000 drive which was
designed to abolish the "dale" for

The contention behind this is that

have complained that It excluded
distressed persons who had mana
ged to keep off relief.

It 'Ventured so far as to peep into
the window of the Douthit boat
house in the Willamette river.
Douthit said he felt the boat
house move and believed a ship was

Three shotgun charges drove the
mammal from its perch on a nearby
float, Douthit said. Blood spots were
seen on the water but no further
trace could be found ot the lion,
Douthit's store bore out to some
extent the contention of Herbert
Tomllnson of Portland that he saw
a "whale" proceeding upstream a
day or so ago. Other Oregon City

observer said 20,000 Italians- were
surrounded and "had no chance to

Daily bombardments of towns
south of Makale, key point of the
fascist northern front, including a
third attack recently on Dessye,
field headquarters of Emperor Halle
Selassie, were believed due to an
Italian determination to gain re
venge. A government communique said
more than a half dozen towns north
of Dessye were' bombed Thursday
and Friday, and that a coptle
Christian monastery on Lake Hoik,
recently visited by the emperor, al
so was attacked, two children being
killed.
