optimism, said that the situation
looks pretty good
For the third successive day the
German high command, contrary
to custom, made no claims of spec
ific advance, but asserted in almost
the same words employed the day
before that operations are pro-
crossing successfully according to
plan"
At the same time a Berlin an
nouncement said the battle is now
entering a phase in which no de-
tailed information can be published
for several days. 1t was the first
time since the war started the Ger
mans have made such an an
nouncement.
Both sides claimed damaging air
raids against enemy territory
London warned that the German
offensive may not yet have develop
ed its major drive and that oper-
ations thus far may still be feeling
out the Weygand line for weak
spots.
British military quarters said that
as far as can be seen the Ger
mans have not as yet made any
appreciable gap in the Somme-
AiSne lines.
Italian entry into the European
war appeared to be drawing closer
as Rome reported incidents between
Italian forces and British troops
in Africa, ana the presence of ma
tive forces led by former Emperor
Halle Selassie of Ethiopia or trust
ed lieutenant.
Germany was reported to have
trebled the forces attacking the
Weygand line and to have driven
within seven miles of scissors, SO
miles from Paris.
The italian line in New York
reported that all Italian ships have
been ordered to remain in neutral
ports or proceed to neutral refuge.
Reports from Paris indicated Ger
mans had thrown all their reserves
into action in an attempt to smash
through the flexible defense sys-
tenn established by Gen. Maxine
Weygand.
The greatest German effort SEEM
ed to be centered near scissors
where the Germans were said to
have hurled 1000 massed tanks in
to battle for control of Chemin
Des Danes, the bloody World war
battle-ground, which overlooks Sois-
sons.
The French reported they were
destroying the German tanks by
the hundreds Four hundred were
said to have been blasted in the
present offensive and $500 since the
invasion of Belgium
Paris asserted that despite the
ferocity of the German attack it
was being controlled by Weygand's
defensive measures for the third
successive day. But Fridays fight
ing was the bitterest of the offen-
sive.
The French said three times as
many troops were being used than
IN the first two days of the assault.
There was no estimate of how many
troops the Germans had in action.
The original estimate was that
100000 were being employed in the
offensive.
In London strict exchange con-
troll regulations were imposed and

Sports Parade
By HENRY McLEMoRE

NEW hOhh-i nave IL IRON
from the very highest authori-
ties that Max Baer and Tony
Galento will put on the worst
heavyweight fight in history
when they meet in Jersey City
Tuesday night.
Ny authorities are none other
than Baer and Galento them
selves.
Ever since this fight was
made, months ago, the crackpot
Californian and the portly zany
from across the Hudson have
Wed with each other in putting
the blast on the spectacle. It's
a wonder TO me that any tickets
have been sold despite the tub
humping OF the promoter. the
press, and interested New Jersey
parties.
Take Galento's blasts, for ex-
ample. At one time or another
since he contracted for the fight
he has called Baer everything
under the sun except q good
fighter. He has branded Baer rs
a bum, a bum who quits, n yell
low bum. worn out, tired and
exhausted bum, and a bum who
couldn't lick any one Of the
Rover boys even with the aid Of
a fixed referee and Judge with
a pre-marked scorecard.
And that's not all. He has
branded Baer as a badly condi-
toned bum, a playboy bum. and
one who cuts and bleeds more
quickly than an underprivileged
beet. As Tony sees it. the fight
won't last long enough for the
less agile spectators to reach
their seats.
Now is that any way 10 en-
courage customers to pay as
much as $3.50 for a ringside
seat? II a man il to believe
Galento. and being a fighter his
opinion Is bound to carry some
weight, the purchase Of a ticket
is blanket admission that the
purchaser Is of the type that
invests in wooden nickels, takes
chances on lottery involving
the Brooklyn bridge, and bets on
wrestling matches.
PUSHOVER PUSHED OVER
Galento has made IT plain that
he feels that anyone who buys a
ticket for Tuesdays fight is pay
ing his money to see pushover
pushed over.
Baer has been no less emphatic
in his attacks on Galento as a
fighter. At one time or another
he has characterized Galento as
a harmless old saloon keeper who
couldn't bounce a noisy midget
from his place of business, a
hand-woven antique who will fall
flat on his face after more than
one round OF any exercise more
violent than solitaire, and a
daffy, beer-guzzling wreck with
only a pair of tights and a set
Of matching cauliflower ears to
Identify him as a fighting man.
What. a prospective customer
IL almost certain to ask himself
before buying a ticket, what II
both Max and Tony happen to
he correct In their estimates Of
each other: No one likes 10 h
made a sucker, particularly after
n dozen or two clear and vibrant
warnings.
Still, even If events prove that
both Tony and Max were correct
In their opinions. there should
be one moment OF the fight
worth the price OF admission.
/ refer to that second at the fin
ish when the winners hand is
raised in triumph, and he real
ICES that, come hell or high
water. he has once again quail
flied for a fight with Joe Louis.
! have a very sound belief that
this is the one thing on earth
that neither Max nor Tony
wants to happen. And you can't
blame them. One trip over Mag
