BY ASSOCIATED PRESs)

Hitler's Hea6ouarters assert that German shock troops are scoring decisive successes" in piercing the last northern defense lines in the siege of Sebastopol.
 The Nazi command says today that Axis troops attacking on the north of the important port have reached Sewernaja Eight, opposite Sebastopol and that the "entire northern part of the fortress with the exception of one coastal fort in the southwestern sector has fall en into German hands after IF days of heavy fighting"
 Under siege for eight months, the great Black Sea naval base and the last Russian stronghold in the Crimea, was barring the way to a Nazi thrust into the rich Cau- casus oil fields.
 The situation remains hazardous in the Crimean front. but accord ing to the Russians dispatches to- day, the defenders of Sebastopol are still holding stoutly and the dis patches gave no confirmation of Nazi claims of victory.

The W ashlngtOn
 Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON and ROBERT s. ALLEN

WASHINGTON-After returning m the Drottningholm, Leland B. Morris. U. s. charge d'affaires Tn Berlin. and George Wadsworth, charge in Rome, gave the Senate Foreign Relations Committee some eye-opening slants on international conditions in the Axis countries, coupled with blunt warning. The warning was:
 Don't depend on the peoples or Germany and Italy revolting against their masters"
 There is only long-shot chance of an Axis collapse through rev olution, the two diplomats reported. The German and Italian people they said, are under such severe military rule and surveillance, that it would be extremely difficult to plan, much less carry out, revoits at present.
 Morris who served in Berlln about 18 months, also pooh-pooheo rumors that the German people are not loyal to Hitler.
 "They are weary of war" he said, but they are still faithful te Hitler. Make no mistake about that They may not consider him the idol they once did, but they are still behind him. Anyone who thinks otherwise is fooling himself"
 Asked about German morale, Morris replied thar from the stand point of loyalty to the Fuehrer, ii was good"
 Wadsworth said the Italian people are kept in such subjugation ant fear by the Germans that it wa! difficult to get a true expression of their feelings, though the morale of the Italians definitely was no as good as that of the Germans.

VICTORIA, B. C., June l9-Roy- al Canadian Air Force squadrons and antiaircraft units of the Can adian Army have been operating for some days with the United States forces in Alaska.
 This is the statement made here by It. Gen. Kenneth Stuart, Chief of the Canadian Staff. He ar rived here Tuesday to take over temLvrarily, as Commander of the Pacific Command.
 Stuart said he has been author ized by Defense Minister Ralston to make the statement.
 It is the first time Canadian forces have been officially known to have taken part in any oper- ations with the United States Ar my, Stuart said.
 Stuart attached considerable sig nificance to the latest Japanese move. It is an obvious defensive attempt to neutralize, destroy or oc- cupy such air bases in the Aleutians as can be used for jumping off points for raids on Japan by shore based aircraft"
 Stuart also said: sIt is also true that if Japan can hold its gains in the Aleutians, she is much closer to Canadian objectives than before In view of these circumstances it is idle to say we are not concerned with the developments

Colt Is 10 Meet
Horses Of Glass
For First Time
Owner Mayors Pride
Never Has Travelled
Distance of Race
BY MASON BRUNSON,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

BALTIMORE, MAY 8.-Meet the
"lease-lend' colt Domingo, dark
horse of the Preakness field.
English bred. American-backed
Domingo is the hope of Movie Man
Louis M. Mayer in tomorrow's SD
running of Marylands richest race.
to be run for winners purse of
100000 or more before an expected
crowd of $4,000.
AS the names of 10 probable
Preakness starters were dropped into
the entry box at Pimlico this morn
ing, Domingo was taking it easy with
typical British nonchalance, touched
off by bit of Hollywood Snowman
ship.
He's playful fellow, this Do
mingo, handsomely built bay colt
which didn't come to the races until
a few weeks ago and was a maiden
until last Monday.
Still Is Green Colt.
One of his favorite tricks is to
nibble broomstick Poking his
long neck out of his stall, he'll take
a broom from a stable boy and
grind his teeth into the wooden
handle until it's taken away from
him. His bosom pal is boxer pup,
the stables watch dog.
So Domingo has personality. But
can he run?
Listen to William B. Finnepan
who's in charge of Mayors turf in
terests:
mot horse in America can
beat him at 6 furlongs when he's
sharpened for speed"
Then he qualified:
Hes still green colt and has a
lot to learn. but We believe he's got
it in him and is entitled to run with
the best"
Domingo hasn't yet met any
horses OF the class of Shut Out.
Devil Diver, Alsab, Valdina Orphan,
Sun Again and others he'll be up
against in the Preakness. but ex-
perts say his breeding is proof he'll
stick it out.
Pointed for Preakness.
The husky bay colt, which re-
sembles Alfred Vanderbilt's I'M
pound, is a 3-year-old son of Co.
lombo and Oronsay by Sansovino.
Brought along slowly by Trainer
Grace Philpot, Domingo has raced
only four times and has won once
and been second once. His victory
came Monday at Jamaica when he
beat lowly field of maidens by
seven lengths while going mile and
one-sixteenth In l:44H.
Before that. Domingo made a
miserable showing in the Wood Me-
mortal, his first important race.
Although he never has gone the
Preakness distance of a mile and
three-sixteenths, he has been pointed
especially for this race.
Oddly, the only imported horse
ever to win the Preakness was War
Cloud. which did it in the war year
Of 1918. when he took the first divi-
sion Of split race, the other half
OF which was won by Jack Hare. ir
