weeks later, to that effect. Neu-
sci, being an Aryan, retained his
status as heavyweight champion.
Il brought Neusel over here"
Paul said, land did all right with
him. The heavyweight division was
in middle at that time and
Neusel was a fair fighter and 1
had him right up there. He beat
Tommy Liughran and Kingfish
Levinsky and some others and he
was third or fourth on the list of
challengers and then I got the pa
pers from Germany and read that
had been signally honored. A
whole page g.. with a two column
picture {. was devoted to me in
Goebbels' paper, Der Angriff. The
headline on the story was:
"JeW Sucks Aryan's BIOOdw
"The story was about how Neu-
sci fought and bled in the ring and
I got all the money. It was Time
for Neusel to Go Home :"
NeuseI continued to do all right
over here until one night i'm the
Garden when he fought Primo
CarnerO. He still was doing all
right in that fight until Primo
dubbed him over the left eye, cut
ting the eyebrow deeply. Blood
gushed from the wound and even
as Neusel Sagged to the ropes,
DamsH was in the ring calling
a halt. He was afraid the eye
itself was injured and he was TAX
ing no chances.
That virtually ended Neusel's
career in this country. Besides
there was something else on Dam
skis mind.
"Listen," told him right after
that. "YOu must go home. They
don't like you being with me. And
SO, as long as you are with me,
you'll be in trouble in Germany.

"He knew what said was right.
And so, one day, I saw him off.
I hope I will see him again some
day. I don't know"
Nobody knows of course. There
are thousands of miles and mil
lions of fighting men between
them and tanks and planes
and big guns and we, at long
last, are at war with Germany.
But the reason Paul is wondering
about Won Richenau and what
really happened to him is that the
last time he heard from Neusel,
the fighter was Won Richenau's
orderly, sparing partner and train
er.

Australian Skies
Scene of Combat
For Air Supremacy
BY BRYDON c. Taves

MELBOURNE, June 26 CUP) -
Gen. Douglas MacArthur's planes,
in one the heaviest aerial assaults
ever launched in the southwest Pa
clfic, struck the first blow today
IN fight for control of these SOU
thern skies.
Operating over a 2,00O-mile front,
American and Australian air men
raided Dill, in Timor island of the
northwest invasion zone, and Ra-
baul in New Britain island of the
northeast zone.
They spread ruin through the
target areas, Swashing airdromes,
grounded planes, barracks and sup
ply dumps and started fires which
the plane crews saw from 60 miles
away as they flew homeward.
TROOPS ATTACKED
In addition to the main raids,
Allied planes successfully attacked
enemy troop quarters at Salamaua
on the north coast of New Guinea,
and drove off determined force
of japanese zero fighter planes
which attempted to raid Port Nor
esby, the Allied advanced base on
the New Guinea south coast.
Macarthur announced in his
communique that the Allies came
through this big series of engage
ments without loss.
Four Allied planes were hit by
zero machine gun bullets in the
savage Port Moresby dog fight but
none was damaged seriously, and at
least five zeroG ctaggered off with
serious damage, probably to crash
in the mountainous New Guinea
interior.
FIGHT TO FINISH ~
No doubt was held here that the
Allied raids on Dill, Rabaul and
Salamaua opened a finish fight, on
a scale never seen in the Antipodes,
for supremacy of the air.
Both sides had been organizing
for it. For four days, Allied and
Japanese planes had been conduct
ing aerial reconnaissance marking
the final preparation, and MacAr-
thur then hit first and hard
Selling the initiative in the dark
early hours of this morning, one
great fleet of Allied planes, prob
ably including Boeing Flying Fort
resses and great Consolidated B-24
bombers, set out for the 500 mile
flights to Dill and Rabaul from
their secret bases.
AT Dill, on the Portuguese end of
Dutch-Portuguese Timor, the Allied
planes roared in at low altitude
and scored direct hits with their
biggest bombs on enemy occupied
buildings. Great fires blazed as they
smashed bomb after bomb on their
targets.

100 Soviet Planes
Raid Finn Harbor

MOSCOW, June 26-CUP) - A
surprise attack by more than 100
Russian Stormovik assault planes
and dive bombers sank several Axis
transports, blasted supply dumps
and set big fuel tanks ablaze at an
unnamed Finnish port Tuesday
night official dispatches disclosed
today.
The attack was made by planes
of the Soviet Baltic fleet. (The
Finnish port attacked was net
named but might have been the
port of Helsinki)
Enemy troop transports and mu-
nitions ships were the main targets
of the attack which was made in
three waves that found the enemy
antiaircraft unprepared.

WITH THE BRITISH EIGHTH
ARMY AT MARSA MATRUH, June
26. (UP) Field Marhal Erwin Rom
mel's invading Axis army has reach
ed points southwest and west OF
Marsa Matruh, striking more than
100 miles into Egypt in a drive
toward the rich Nile valley.
American-made Douglas Boston
light bombers and Curtiss Kitty
hawk fighters of the Royal air
force joined the mobile armored
forces of Gen. Neil M. Ritchie's
army in a grim fight to hold back
the pressing enemy hOrdes until the
new defense line based on Marsa

could be made ready.
1t appeared that the opening of
the battle of Marsa Matruh might
start at any hour
GERMANS ADVANCING
The main column Of the German
invading force was driving in ar
roWhead formation along the rail-
road from Sidi Barrani, 80 miles
west of Marsa Matruh.
This force had reached a point

southwest of Marsa Matruh itself.
ut was indicated that here Rom
mel's men were between 100 and
100 miles inside Egypt and hardly
more than 20 miles from Marsa Ma
truhD
Another column, consisting MAIN
ly of armored cars and motorcycles,
with some motorized infantry, was
engaged by British units on the
main seacoast road west of Marsa
Matruh.
The main body of the enemy ar
mored corps was pursuing on at
racing speed, great clouds of dust
marking its progress over the bak
ing desert. 1t was using the camel
tracks on both sides of the rail-
road line.
MECHANIZED FLOOD
Royal Air Force bombing and
fighting planes, including the Doug
lasses and the CurtisSes, gave a pic
ture of vast sprawling force, with
tanks, armored cars and mobile
aircraft guns forming a broad
Spearhead which served to protect
the flanks of the following units.
Pilots reported that huge supply
columns, in staggered echelon for
nation, were following behind the
main advance group, protected on
both sides and in the rear by strong
columns.
The supply force from the air
showed an advance in a neat box
like body. ....
A third Axis column, o. smaller
size than those southwest and west
CT this anchor point, was pushing
southwark through the desert, head
ing for Ras Ell Qattara, rs miles
south of Marsa Matruh at the edge
of the great Qattara depression and
its salt marshes which form a diff
ficult obstacle for tanks.
