Property Loss of Millions Of Dollars Is Caused By Swirling Water
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.,
May 30. — — Floods tonight swept Colorado Springs and an are? more than 100 miles square to the east and south of this city, taking a toll of life ‘conservatively” estimated by authorities at ten,; and causing millions of dollars1 property damage.
TTie downtown section of Colo-, rado Springs became an island in ; the midst of swirling flood waters.

Only loss of life. It was believed, occurred in Colorado Springs proper. where two bodies already had been recovered, one of them identified as that of Pete Kramer, 35, a city fireman who was swept away moments after he had rescued an aged man clinging in the branches of a tree.
Others believed certainly dead Included Mr. and Mrs. Fred Philo, of Colorado Springs, who were washed from the top of their tar, stranded on a flooded highway, while city firemen sought vainly to rescue them.

Stanford Class To Hear Hoover
By Francis Benavidez
Daily Troian Staff Correspondent
CAMBRIDGE, May 30 — (Exclusive) — Allowed only to look at the track upon which I. C. 4-A. trial races will be held tomorrow, the S.C. varsity team practiced on the freshman cinders here today. Although handicapped by missing workouts on two previous days because of a Kansas cloudburst, everyone ras feeling fine, including Earle Meadows, who has been ailing.
Kenny Carpenter, Trojan hope in the discus throw, announced his avowed intention of upsetting Stanford’s Phil Levy and winning the individual title in the event. The jumpers found the cinder runways fast, and all expect to give “peak” performances. Many heats j are scheduled for the hurdles, as extra-wide hurdles on the narrow track allow only five entrants in each race. Fifty-seven listed entries in 1500-meters makes point-winning by coast competitors appear extremely difficult.
Predictions Place S. C.
Total at 40 to 50
CAMBRIDGE. Mass., May 30.— (UJ!)—It should be seven out of 11 for University of Southern California in the 59th annual I.C.4-A. track and field championships opening at Hanard stadium tomorrow.
Victorious in six of 10 previous bids in the classiest and mqst colorful outdoor games excepting the Olympics, the mighty Trojans from Los Angeles are favorites to pace the 38 colleges and universities that will be represented by a total of 815 athletes in the two-day meet.
Coach Dean Cromwell’s team of 20 men are expected to garner 40 to 50 points on turf and cinders by dusk Saturday, to win by a comfortable margin in what loomed as an all-California windup.
University of California, with a team of 13 men. generally was favored for runner-up position, and Stanford, though it brings cnly four men to defend the title won a*. Franklin field a year, ago, was ■'H? picked by many * , to wrest third . -place from the / leading eastern contenders, host §11 Har vard and Cornell.
At least a dozen Sou them
I Californians ap-neared as surefire p o i n t-get-| ters, and any ’ ii and all of the Rass Bush lesser entries 'Given1 Third were threats in ; their specialties.
The Trojans banked on Foy i Draper for around third in the .^00-meter sprint. John McCarthy iia Jimmy Cassin looked good for i tb’rd and fifth in the 400. Ross I Bush was rated a possible third j in the 800. and in the 1500 Francis Benavidez may place fifth.
The Trojans have five good hurdlers in Phil Cope. Roy Staley, Gil Strother. Ed Hall, and Norman Paul, and in the broad jump the trio of Al Olson, Marvin Crawford, and Paul Jungkeit should swell Troy’s total. Ken Carpenter in the discus, and Earle Meadows and Bill Sefton. 14-foot pole vaulters. are other big guns in the Trojan ranks.
George Anderson, California sophomore sprint star, beat Foy Draper, S.C. hope, when the two raced in the 220 of the Bear-Trojan dual meet, shown above. Since then, Draper has vowed he would win from Anderson at least once this year. Fans wonder if this week’s I.C. 4-A. meet, in which Draper is concentrating upon the furlong, will mark the fulfillment of his desires.

Flandin Cabinet Is Overthrown
Chamber of Deputies Stop Attempt for Dictatorial Power in Crisis
PARIS. May 31.—(Friday)—(UJ?) —The cabinet of Premier Pierre-Etienne Flandin, seeking dictatorial power to “save the franc,” was overthrown in the chamber of deputies early today.
Fernand Bouisson, Socialist, president of the chamber, unoffi-ciaUy was asked to try to form a new cabinet. He asked his party to participate in the government and the Socialists will meet later today to decide.
A dramatic plea by the premier to check the threat of inflation failed to save his coalition government.
While a restless mob of communists and royalists gathered in tho historic Place de la Concorde outside the parliament buildings, •the deputies voted. The ballot was 353 to 202 against the cabinet.
Flandin, who had fainted a few hours earlier at the end of his futile plea to the chamber, immediately submitted his resignation to President Albert Lebrun. It was accepted.
The premier was under care of doctors when word came to him of his defeat. He received a broken arm in an automobile accident recently and he made his chamber address against advice of physicians.
