Eight officers of the fraternal, organization named the man to Asst. Atty.

Gen. George Fin-gold and his men. Police at once began a systematic search of the city for him, but it later appeared he had fled Revere and probably had left the state to avoid arrest. The beano gameinvestigilors said, ran three nights a week, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. They won immunity from the law by paying their "pro-" lector" the take from two of the three weekly games.

It was understood that the Tuesday night receipts were retained by the organization, -and the money from the other two nights was turned over to the man sought, who kept part of the sum and turned the rest over to his boss. The go-between, probers were told, approached the organization's officers many months ago and told them, "You fellows can operate your game, but only if you pay us receipts from two of each three nights it runs." The officers agreed. Take from the game was estimated at about 3500 a night. The beano was halted early this Summer, when rumblings of the impending state investigation of conditions in Revere reached the ears of those involved.

Aug. 20 (AP) Seventeen men were killed late today when a B-29 crashed and burned in a wheat field just off the edge of the Army Air Force field.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 American officials pondered long and hard, it was disclosed tonight, before deciding to order Soviet Consul General Jacob M. Lomakin in New York to get out of the country for improper" conduct and charges against American officials in the refugee Russian school teacher cases, Reprisal in kind by the Soviet Unipn can be expected, for normally the Soviets could be expected not only to loose a counter-blast of propaganda, but to oust an American official of equal diplomatic rank. The American1 consul in Vladivostok and one in Moscow are the only ones in the Soviet Union. They appeared to be the prime prospects for the ouster.

Lomakin was given a reasonable length of time described officially as several days to clean up his business and personal affairs before leaving the United States, presumably to return to Russia. The American demand for Lomakin's recall, the first such action against a Soviet official since the United States recognized the Soviet Union in 1933, was contained in a note delivered to the Soviet Embassy last night and published today.
