By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BERWICK, Pa, Aug. 2.-This
northern Pennsylvania city took on
a holiday atmosphere today to Cele-
brate completion of the 1,000th
tank for the Army's armored divi-
sions by the American Bar 81 Foun-
dry Co.
On the program were a parade of
5000 f1ag-bearing workmen en-
ployed in the Berwick plant, a sham
battle with a tank force attacking
machine gun nests and pill boxes
with live ammunition, and speech
making ceremony to deliver the
l,000th tank to the Army.
The company, only commercial
producer of light combat tanks in
America, is working on an order
for $3.50 of the war machines. Ten
of the l3-ton tanks come from the
assembly line each day at cost OF
$4,000 each. The plant is working
on three 8-hour, 7-day shifts.
The tanks, estimated to have the
effectiveness of 40 infantrymen in
battle plus ability to dash at full
speed over rough country, are type
given their first trial under fire in
Greece.
Equipped with radio, they can fire
40 shots a minute from automatic
37-millimeter cannon, total OF
more than 5000 shots minute from
four 30-caliber machine guns, and
there are also two tommy guns for
use from pistol ports in the turret
wall at close quarters.
Tests have shown that their
armor plate gives complete protec-
ton from ordinary bullets, grenades
and 37-millimeter shells.
They are designed to strike $50
miles into hostile territory at IS
miles an hour with a crew of five
men.
The Berwick Airport was taken
over for the sham battle, scheduled
to take place about midafternoon.
Thirty bands were engaged for the
parade.

POLES

In accordance with thousands of requests received from patrons Manager Ed. Fitzpatrick of the Loew Poli theater, this morning an- nounced the hold-over of kitty Foyle"-extending the engagement of the picture for three more days, ending on Friday evening.
 Forced to choose between two heart problems in the stirring cli- max of the picture, Ginger Rogers finds her decision and the events leading up to it as the motivating theme of Kitty Foyle," her new starring vehicle for RKO Radio.
 Taken from the much-discussed novel by Christopher Morley, the film is vivid presentation of the career of "white-collar girl" one of the millions of office workers in our modern civilization, and it is said to be Miss Rogers most i'm portant dramatic efort.
 The action covers an eIeven-year period, beginning with Kitty as a girl just out of business college and seeking a job as the Depression gets under way. Her hectic love af- fair with young socialite employ CT, their marriage mad quick annul- ment when Kitty finds she's made a mistake, her subsequent friendship with a young doctor, her sacrifice

College Professor
 Tries Boxing--On

Atlanta, Ga, Feb. 19- UP - Prof. Douglas McClay of GeorgiA Tech. Ph. D., harvard, was positive today that 1t was easier for boxer to become a scholar-in the manner of Gene Tunney-than for 6 scholar to become boxer.
 A right cross to the mouth con- vinced McClay of that when he suffered a technical knockout in his first public fight, in the welter- weight division of a golden gloves tournament last night.
 A professor in mathematics at Georgia Tech and 25-years-old, Mo- Clay was beaten in street brawl several weeks ago. He then de- cided to learn to box to protect" himself.
 He entered the tournament after instruction in boxing at local gym.
 The referee stopped McChys fight after one minute of the third round and awarded the decision to Lorenzo Allgood. 19, a student at Piedmont College.

Before making 1t necessary for anybody to read a line about the story of the picture, 1t might be said thta it contains enough thrills for any five average pictures, just as its cast as enough stars for any five everyday films. More than that, the picture has two love stories, one a triangular affair with beautiful Miss Carroll as the lady, and the other a romance or whatever one might call it between a tempestuous Indian girl, who is about as wild as the North woods, and Mountie.
 Set in the period when Canada was threatened by Civil War of its own as thousands of half-breeds revolted against the government, the picture relates magnificent story of the courage which made the North West Mounted one of the most respected forces in the world.
 Co-featuring the program is a de- lightful comedy "She Couldn't Say No'' with Roger Pryor and Eve Ar den in principal roles.

BOSTON|ANSO ON !. WAY TO GREAT
 HOCKEY RECORD
Overtime Tie With Leafs Saves Win Streak;
 Americans Next

Boston, Feb. 19.-(UP)-The ram paging Boston Bruins looked ahead today to extending their National Hockey league record of 22 games without defeat after preserving the remarkable streak by gaining q 2-2 overtime tie with the second place Toronto Maple Leafs.
 The Bruins will have an oppor-. tunity to continue the string, now three games longer than the 1939-40 mark of the New York Rangers, in two home contests. The last-place Americans provide the opposition Sunday night and the Rangers, Bos- tons bitterest rival, play here Tues day night.
 Unbeaten since December 22, the Bruins were forced to the limit last night to maintain their one-point hold on first place. The tie, Bos- tons eight in the current surge, was earned before a capacity crowd of 16,209 at Boston Garden.
 Two centers-Art Jackson of Bos- tons third line and Syl Apps of Toronto's first wave-accounted for all the scoring.
 Jackson caged a 15-foot back handler at 11:37 of the first period to start the duel Apps equaIized for the Leafs at 14:40 after batting down a flying puck just outside his blueline and outskating Defenseman Dit Clapper.
 Nice Work.
 Early in the second period, Apps put the Leafs ahead by eluding both Boston defensemen on a brilliant rush and firing sharply -angled shot into the net. But Jackson tied the score at 9:54 when he stole the puck from Billy Taylor inside the Toronto defense and roared in alone.
 The Bruins, playing their sixth game in II nights, held a wide of- fensive margin through most of the regulation play, pounding Goalie Walter Broda with 16 shots in the first period and 2l in the second. Toronto gained the upper hand as Boston tired and in the overtime plastered Frank Brimsek with B shots while Broda had only three.

Crosby Tankers
 Meet Two Foes At Local Pool Tonight

Tonight at eight o'clock Crosby's fighting mermen encounter in a triangular meet the Bristol and Bridgeport Central swimming squads. Bristol is not quite as able an opponent as Manchester who incidently was tripped without too much trouble by a 46-29 score and Central will be just about the easiest of Crosby's opponents dur ing the present season. If the old Ivy conquerers in these two meets as they should they will show a won and lost percentage of 6 wins and no SetbackS which is headed only by Hillhouse with victories and no losses and Hartford who leads the pack with triumphs and no defeats.
 Three Way Action
 A triangular meet is contest where the three teams involved meet each other in three individual meets. The scoring is the same as in a two team meet.
 The ManherAnen looked fine in Saturdays trouncing of Manchester and large turnout greeted the eff forts of Crosby's aqua artists.
 Another pleasant sight to the eyes of devout Ivy fans was the fine showing of John Mickey" Holmes, AS second stringer to brilliant Dom chic Spallon he showed fine form against the Sink-towners. Joe Brown, backstroker, also looked fine, Billy Webster and Tony Lombard also stood out in the backstroke and 400" respectively. Paul Lux and Jack Hummer looked fine in the breast stroke for Crosby.

Borough Boys Need Rest, Coach and School Of=
 ficiaIs Decide

Naugatuck, Feb. 19.-The Nauga- tuck high school basketball team will not enter the state basketball tourney this year, it was learned from high school officials today.
 It was stated Coach Peter J. Fo- ley and high school officials feel that it would be to the welfare of the team not to enter it this year as in recent games the boys have seemed tired.
 The team compiled good record this year, although it suffered sev- eral defeats. The local team has competed in the state tourney for a number of years, and usually makes a good showing.
 The decision not to enter the tourney was reached this morning at a conference. It had been ru- mored that such decision might result because the coach feels the players need considerable rest after a hard season.

Brown for EIumphries May Be Dykes Best; Swift
 Virginian Undeniably Has Makings, and Muddy RueI Is a Wizard With Pitchers

He was lost and discouraged in the role.
 In one of his mighty few starts last season, HumphrieS let the Browns down with one hit only to lose because the single clout was a home run by Walter Judnich.
 Thornton Lee, blond Edgar Smith, Clint Brown, Bill Dietrich, Pete Ap- pletion and Jack Knott-castoffs all-suddenly got tough in Pale Hose livery.
 Johnny Humphries has vastly more mechanical ability than any of them, and the scholarly Ruel will get the most out of it if anybody can. Ruel, one of the great catchers though he weighed less than 150 pounds, as a coach is one Of the most underpublicized figures in the game.
 One of the principal reasons why Dealer Dykes has enjoyed so much success with craZyquilt collection of Chicago White Sox is that he has the good sense to turn the pitchers over to Muddy Ruel.
