OMount Clemens proved last
night that it will be q tough nut
to crack in the American Le-
gion-NYA Junior Loop when it
turned back New Haven, 81,
at the Covered Wagon diamond.
The Foun rymen rated
strongly since their triumph
over st. Clair Shores, one of the
strongest teams in the league
this year, found the pitching and
hitting Of Lyle Bliss, righthand
sophomore star of Mount Glenn
ems High school, and the hitting
of Jim Bear ee and Paul
Strumpfer too much for them.
Bliss gave up only five hits
and struck out Is batters. He al
so scored two runs, leading the
batting with two hits, a single,
and a double, in three trips to
the plate.
Mount Clemens, captained by
Lawson Beardslee, punched in
three runs in the first inning.
Beardslee walked, Bliss doubled,
Strumpfer triple d and came
home with the third run on an
error.
In the fourth inning ia C k
Sierens got to first on a fielder
choice and scored on two sue
cessive errors. In the sixth frame
Bliss led off with q single and
Strumpfer reached first on q
fielder's choice. Both men were
scored on singles by Sierens and
Jim Beardslee.
Two singles were turned into
a run by New Haven in the Sec
ond. The only other New Haven
run was made in the fifth on a
single, a stolen base, and an err
ror.

LONDON, July 16 (UP) - Japan
is about to strike a big blow in
East Asia in support of its axis
allies, diplomatic quarters reported
today.
They expressed belief that the
variety of reports concerning ia
pans intended action might mean
that Japan herself had not decided
just where to strike and was seek
ing to sound United States and Brit
ish reaction before making the
final decision.
The general opinion, however,
here as in Shanghai, was that Japan
was most likely to strike south
ward toward French Indo-China,
with the great French naval base
of Camranh, one of the best in the
world, as her prime objective.
There were strong reports that
Japan within the next two weeks
and perhaps within a few days
would demand that the Vichy gov
ernment lease" the Camranh base,
and that if Vichy refused the Japa-

lin reports of the drive on Lenin-
grad. Repeatedly German forces
have been described as marching
on the northern Soviet metropolis.
On one day the German accounts
will claim that the final Soviet
forts in the path to Leningrad have
been captured. The next days ac-
counts will repeat that assertion III
varying terms.
Wednesdays German reports OF
the Leningrad drive gave three
different locations of the Nazi van
guard. First it was described as
near" Leningrad. Then it was SAID
to have crossed the Luga river, &c
miles south of Leningrad. A short
time later it was placed by the Of
fic!al DNB news agency at Byelaya,
Us miles from Leningrad.
The Far Eastern situation appear
ed to be moving again toward the
crisis stage.
The japanese were believed to
be submitting stiff demands to
French Indo China, possibly under
threat of forceful intervention il
their demands, probably for con-
troll of the important Camranh nav
al base and most of the rest of the
country, are not granted.
The Japanese also were maintain
ing at least a tactical threat against
the Russians in Siberia and were
reported to have protested Ameri-
can treatment of three japanese
merchant vessels.
The British carried out another
big bombing attack on the Ruhr,
centering on Duisberg. Vichy in
dicated that differences have arisen
between Gen. Maxine Weygand and
Admiral Jean Abrial, governor gen.
eral of Algeria and that Abrial would
