By HUGH S. FULLERTON, Jr.
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-The move
ment toward recovery in the basket
ball business, which has been badly
depressed the past couple of weeks
is due to begin about next Saturday.
Mldwinter examinations have been
interfering with practitioners of the
court trade and may interfere still
further. Still, every major basket
ball conference will have at least a
few games next week end and some
of them will be getting seriously into
the business of deciding their l94l
championship.
The full effect of this January in
terval won't be revealed for at least
couple of weeks-not until it's seen
what teams were made rusty by long
layOffs. which ones suffered through
ineligibility of players and which
benefited by having players restored
to good standing.

with their rear guards in the AL
Abiar area about Is miles east of
Bengasi.
The British said these holding
forces were being pressed back
through the highlands.
Cirene and Appolonia, about so
miles west of Derna and far to
the rear of active operations, were
entered by British patrols yesterday,
the headquarters bulletin said.
The British said they were taking
enormous quantities of discarded
German and italian equipment.
Two Forces Press Ahead.
The main line of Britain's swift,
mobile army hotly pursuing Gen.
Erwin Romme's shattered African
corps had driven beyond the high
lands OF Eastern Cirenaica by last
night, the Cairo communique said.
One force, it stated, was pressing
back Axis units holding covering
positions east of Bengasi, Gen. Rom
mel's last big advance base east of
Tripoli itself, while others were "op-
Grating against enemy forces which
were withdrawing southwark toward
Agedabia."
This represented still a further
advance, apparently without serious
Axis opposition, from the British
advance point yesterday at Soluch,
about IS miles southeast of Bengasi
and 280 miles from the British
starting point at the Egyptian from
tier. The British thus had Iooped
around Axis forces at Rengasi and
BARGE.
Again, despite bad weather, the
Cairo communique noted that the
r. A. F. "reaped a rich reward from
intensive action against concentra-
tions of enemy mechanical trans
ports on roads and tracks along the
seaboard of the Gulf of Sirte."
Story of Sudden Blow.
The story of the advance patrols

Italy's Fate Seen at Stake.

mentator, Virginio Gayda, said in

II Giornale d1talia that almost the
| entire mass of Italian armed sea
and air forces" was being thrown in
to stop the drive of British troops,
heavily reinforced from elsewhere
in the Near East. Gayda declared
the battle being fought would de-
eide the fate of the whole of Italy.
British attacks on the port OF
Bardia have been repulsed and local
fighting is taking place in the noun
tains of Northern Cirenaica, the
Italian high command reported in
Rome.
The communiqque said italian
troops were moving to new positions.
An advanced post taken by the
British was recaptured, the Italians
added, but did not give the location.
Axis planes bombed British rear
guards and carried out low-level
machine-gun attacks on troops on
the march and on concentrations of
mechanized units, the communique
added.
The Italians claimed II British
planes were shot down. 10 of them
by German fighters. British raids
on Derna, Tripoli Bengasi and
BARGE were said to have caused no
serious damage.
The German high command
claimed only seven British fighter
planes shot down in combats on the
Libyan front yesterday. 1t dis
missed land operations in that zone
by declaring briefly that no major
operations took place.
The Germans also reported their
planes had raided the British Medi-
terranean base of Malta during the
night, attacking shipping and supply
dumps with heavy bombs and shoot
ing down four enemy fighters with
out a single loss.
Expect Fight for Bengasi.
British officials in Cairo said they
expected a hard fight for Bengasi,
but believed Gen. Rommel had de-
cided not to risk the best of his
infantry in stand there. as indi-
Gated by columns of Axis trucks
sighted bearing infantry south from
Bengasi.
1t was not clear whether pursuing
British had made contact with Gen.
Rommel's retreating forces, but a
brief communique said IL German
tanks had been destroyed in the
course of the advance and eight
medium Italian tanks captured.

said British air superiority in North
Africa was great enough to permit

Begin Fortnight Of
Informal Holiday
Time-Morkine Sessions
Held by Those Staying
In City for Christmas
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Congress today began a fortnight
Of informal holiday idleness, but
members already were worrying
about war problems-taXes, price
fixing. non-defense economies and
how to deal with labor disputes
which will confront them at the new
session beginning Monday, jan
uary 5.
Speaker Rayburn told House
members Saturday they were free
to go home for Christmas. Repre-
sentatives and Senators who stay in
Washington, however, will hold
time-marking sessions today, to-
morrow and Friday to conform with
current rules which prohibit recesses
Of more than three days.
Drastic Tax Bill Awaited.
IN the offing were such measures
as:
A drastic bill which may include
a sales tax or a plan whereby en-
ployers will withhold a percentage
OF their workers pay and turn the
money over to the Government.
A price-flxing bill to prevent sky
rocketing cost, and imitation, but
placing no ceiling " wages.
An anti-strike bill to outlaw work
stoppage in war industries.
A bill to eliminate a billion and
q half dollars year of non- defense
spending.
Failure thus far of a labor indus
try conference to work out an agree
ment to avoid war industry strikes
aroused some Congress members
President Roosevelt had asked the
IL representatives of industry and
IL from organized labor to present
an agreement by last Friday, but the
conference was called back into ses-
sion today with no pact in sight.
Repressive Legislation Seen.
Senator Mead, Democrat. of New
York predicted that the representa-
tives eventually would get together,
but warned that if they failed to do
50 "the road will be wide open for
some kind of repressive legislation.
Behind them Congress members
had a history making session. In
the last year they had:
Declared war on Japan, Germany
and Italy.
Broadened the selective service
law to require registration of all
men between 18 and "a, inclusive;
make those of 20 to A, inclusive,
subject to military service; permit
drafted troops to be sent anywhere
in the world and keep them in serv-
ice for the duration.
Passed legislation giving the
President broad wartime powers
such as control of communications
and alien financial transactions.
Revised the Neutrality Act to
permit United States merchant ves-
sels to carry arms and call at ports
Of belligerent nations.
Passed or authorized appropria-
ton of approximately so billions for
