UNDATED, July 12 aP1- Ger man reports declared that Nazi shock troops were storming the northern wing of the Stalin Line, but for the fifth consecutive day, the High Command found it ad- visable to report only that cam paign is proceeding according to plan"

 The German DNB agency said the assault on the deep Stalin Notifications started yesterday and was reinforced early today by shock troops. The precise point of attack was not speci- fled but it said cryptically that it was in the ''Wet zone of the Stalin Line"

NAZI BLITZKRIEC LECIONS REPORTED THROUGH STALIN
 LINE ALL DECISIVE POINTS


UNDATED. July IA (F) -Keiv is tottering under combined air and land assault; Moscow Is no longer protected by the Stalin Line; and Leningrad is caught in between a German frontal drive and a Finnish flank offensive, the German asserted. They declared the Red Armies are falling apart. The campaign is rushing to a climax as Nazi forces are report ed hammering at the gates of Keiv. Berlin waited expectantly to hear that the gateway to the Ukraine's richest industrial and farming regions had been forced.
 German planes rained destruc- tion on Keiv's warehouses and hangars and even destroyed the city's waterWorks, it was said. This picture was pieced together from words of an authorized Ger man spokesman and the DNB, and in a slight degree from the daily communique from the high command.
 Hitler's headquarters said that Finnish troops opened an attack on Karelia, from both sides of Lake Ladoga, the sector closest to Leningrad "The main strength of the powerful Soviet army is broken" asserted the DNB re- porting also that the Nazi blitz- krieg legions slashed through the main Stalin Line defenses "at all decisive points"
 Dispatches from Ankara report ed that Soviet officials are pre- pairing to move from Moscow al though the Germans are still some 300 miles from the capital. The British mission has already transferred to Gorki, 25O miles to the east.

It simply doesn't pay to make un- guarded statements in the presence Of Dodger rooters. Of course, the man who did the shooting is in the penitentiary. But that doesn't help the man who thought the Dodgers were lousy. He is inconveniently dead, and never again can he cheer a Dodger defeat or stand in public places and make unwise observa- tions.

AS you may recall, one of the eel ebrated sports news pictures of last season showed fist-fight between a National league umpire and fan. That fan was Dodger fan, Brook lyn fan He didn't like decision the umpire had made on the field So he piled out of the grandstand, or maybe it was the bleachers, and lit into the umpire with his fists. It made a gocd picture It was in most of the newspapers everywhere. It was just another little link in the chain of evidence that when the good people of Brooklyn go in for a team, they go all out. Flatbush simp- ly doesn't believe in half measures and never has.
 Among the leather- lungs wh' yell for the Dodgers on all occasions is a Chinese headwaiter at Ruby Foo's whose name in Billy Gwon. Billy used to play semi-pro ball on a team with Vito Tamulis. But the important thing to remember is that Billy wells his insults in Chinese .. have asked him to give me a few examples, and here they are: An que jun (kill the umpire); Looie how yu tya big bum) An koy bo (we want hit); kin que cho (throw him out); and who kar Tor tget a basket).

CITY COUNCIL ACTS

CITY COUNCIL ACTS .g1 ON VARIOUS ISSUES
 Plans for sewer assessment against property owners of Doug- las this year, as was proposed by previous city administrations but left unacted upon. were advanced for first step at the regular Council meeting last night by or- der from Mayor Bonner to have suitable ordinance legalizing proper procedure in the matter drawn up for presentation at the next meet ing.
 The measure. when effective, will place some of the burden of water and sewer bonded indebtedness on the sewers from which no revenue has accrued in the past. all pay ments on the debt coming from water receipts alone.
 Approximately $40O will have to be raised from the special assess ment this year and the most equi- table, way it. was thought would be t6 levy four cents per frontage foot on all properties. Thus the extra tax against a property having 50- foot frontage would amount to only $2.
 Disposal of garbage in the town was another issue before the meet ing, with general condemnation ex-

 A communication from the Ter ritorial Department of Health. read at the meeting, indicated some of ficial action may be taken against certain property owners in town unless their method of sewerage disposal is changed.
 Parking of cars on the city wharf was also condemned on account of lack of space there and difficult ties that would be encountered by the fire truck in case of a fire. A no-parking sign will so notify car drivers there in the future.
 From now on, too. children must keep off the wharf unless they y have definite business there, Mayor Bonner stated Action to collect magistrate fines previously levied was ordered. It was decided to paint the freight shed on the wharf to match the cannery buildings.

Brooklyn Is MostLoyaI

Fans Even Go So Far as 10 Shoot Those Who h.
 suIt" Their Team
By GEORGE TUCKER

NEW YORK, June 24.-As has been stated previously here and elsewhere, the Brooklyn Dodgers breed strange sort of loyalty among their followers and their fol- lowers are legion. As matter ol fact, almost anybody in Brooklyn will kick out your teeth if you so much as intimate that their darl- ines are not going to win the pen nant this year.
 What I am trying to say is that the good people of Brooklyn are never lukewarm in their enthusiasm for the team When the Dodg- ers win, they are in heaven But when they lose, the police have to patrol the bridges to keep the heart broken citizens from leaping to their own destruction. You think this is exaggerated a little, don't you?
 Well, you do not know Brooklyn Last summer a little incident took place in g Brooklyn pub that will illustrate the point, and very nicely for you - An alien came in =. Probably he was from Manhattan, or Hobcken By alien" is meant just anybody who isn't from Brook lyn.
