Page Old Rome For Paris Aid In Nazi Raid By GLADYS M. ARNOLD Canadian Press Correspondent PARIS. Jan. 10 —One of the saf- est and probably the most interest- ing bomb shelter in Paris was built by a Roman eneral. But he little realized what ts ultimate use would be when heset his 50ld!€l'5 to work on 1t, something arounncl 2,000 years ago. His chief concern at that time was to build a first class arena capable of holding 8.000 spectators who cn- ioved the amusement of seeing the lions eat the Christians-or an oc- casional battle between Roman gladiators. Not far from the Mouffetarrl in the Latin Quarter-where the treas- bombs age. tires of golden coins were discovered lastwinter when some 10th century buildings were torn down— a work- man discovered what aDDcared to be a series of stone steps covered by earth.

Pry a brick out almost anywhere in the quarter and you ‘have a musclun piece of Roman vuitage. ' Arena. Uncovered The buildings were torn down and after the war the whole arena was uncovered. It was found to be one oi the finest in existence and very well preserved. The wldestone steps, divided in several series, led down gently into the playfleld 1n the middle.
