 Eklunds escape-while the jury was reported "hopelessly dead- locked"-created situation unpre- cedented in Washington history.
 Justice James w. Morris had or- dered the jury to continue its de- bate and 1t finally reached an agreement early Saturday, while the defendant was still at large. The jury was excused until today while the manhunt, in which more than 50 soldiers and policemen partici- pated, continued.
 Eklund, who had managed to re- move the handcuffs he was wearing at the time of his escape, was un- ruffled, when he was captured.
 He explained his flight by saying, T wanted to beat bum rap" At the time of his recapture he &C., curately forecast the verdit, telling a police captain who questioned him.: "I'll get second degree mur- der charge hung on me-"
 Again manacled, Eklund smiled sardonically as he entered the courtroom today to hear the verdict. Following the reading, Justice Mor- ris remanded the prisoner to await sentence.
 The judge alluded only indirectly to EkluIds sensational escape and capture, which had forced the jury to remain on duty an extra AS hours. To the jury members he ex- pressed the courts thanks for "ard- uous services under the circum- stances"
 The charge against him was that he had slain Hyland e. McLaine, one of several Negroes believed to have been killed here by the same "sniper". Eklund was not tried for the other Slaytngs.

 The line, now nearly TO miles west of Alexandria, looped down south- eastward into pocket which reach- ed its easternmost point some miles south of Fl Alamein. It then con- tinued southward to the Qattara salt bogs where the Germans had shifted their. line eastward at the same time Auchinleck made his short drive into the key sector.
 The Imperials were striking at the German tank forces in the pocket day and night. The Germans lost several tanks to the Imperials in three local attacks which were sup ported by artillery
 If the Germans had intended to renew their drive for Alexandria and the Nile, it was clear they had re- cevied a setback.
 Rommel threw strong airplane re- Inducements into the battle area without seriously challenging the supremacy which the Royal and South African air forces had won.
 There were reports here that Benito Mussolini personally was in the desert. Imperial army headquar- ters had no information.
 However, it was suggested that either the leader of the southern end of the Axis might have come over to Africa some time ago, hop ing to lead the Axis into Alexandria, or that he might have arrived in hope that he could cheer up the Italians who were beaten in the British attack of Friday.

ZEPHYRS SHADE RIVERS IN WBC TILT
Vols, Wells Also Win Games in. Intermediate "A League

In the main attraction of the triple -header at the Boys Club last night the Zephyrs set down the Rivers 28 to 26 to remove the latter club from share of the first place berth in the Club Intermediate A league. The zephyrs are undefeated m this second round and will play the Bucks next Monday evening in the opening contest.

The winners made 8 out of II tries while the Rivers only made good on out of 12 attemp.s Pace setter Fred Colho dropped in 5 out of from the charity station. Frank Scamplina and Tata threw a scare into the league leaders with a last quarter spurt that just failed to overtake the Zephyrs.

Co!an--W Webb Bout May Develop IFS Title Contender

New York, Feb. 3-A title oppo- nent for Gus Lesnevich, light heavy weight champion, may come out of the Johnny Colan-Jimmy Webb contest at Madison Square Garden on Friday night-scheduled as the eight-round semi-final to the Sam my Angott-Bob Montgomery 12- round main event.
 Lesnevich has decided, after a dis appointing excursion into the heavy weight ranks, that he belongs back among the 75-pounders. The best fight he has ever made was that against Tami Mauriello in which Gus, at 173A pounds, successfully defended his title.
 Lesnevich is now ready to defend the crown again and the challenger may well be the winner of the Colan-W fight on Friday. Webb, indeed, was close to the light-heavy thrones once before. He had knocked out Tommy Tucker and was slated to face Lesnevich with the winner succeeding to the title vacated by Billy Conn.
 But Webb fell into a slump, suf- fered couple of setbacks, and was temporarily moved out of the light heavyweight picture. He decided he had been fighting too often and neded a rest. So he went home to Texas last September and aban- doned all ring activity for three months. Then he resumed training and now he's back, confident he has again found the winning formula. {.
 Big Chance
 Colan established himself as a top-f1ight light-heavy during 1941 when he compiled an imposing record, registering seven knockout triumphs and four decisive point victories in eleven fights. But then in his twelfth fight of the year, he suffered an eye cut in fight with Tommy Tucker and was unable to answer the bell for the ninth round.
 But boxing men rate Colan as the most promising lad in the light heavy class and a victory over Webb will stamp him as a foremost chal- lenger for championship honors.
 Both Colan and Webb are knock out punchers and most local ex- perts expect Fridays fight to end short of the distance. It is cer- tainty that each will be aiming for a knockout since an impressive tri- umph will almost surely bring the winner into championship contest against LeSnevich.

Orioles And Raiders Win Brook yn MICA Hoop Contests

Sunday, in the Brooklyn "Y" Senior league encounters, the re- suits lived up to expectations as the fast-moving Orioles trounced the Speedboys, 52 to g and the Raiders disposed of the Rams A to 25.
