KERCH FRONT ACTIVE

Dispatches from the Russian front
indicated the Russians still were in
action on the Kerch peninsula of
the Crimea, but the main trend of
the whole southern front depended
on the outcome of the Kharkov
battle.
Military experts said there was
little or no possibility of the Ger
mans attempting any thrust from
the Crimea toward the Caucasus oil
fields until and if they were able
TO break through the Ukraine front
toward Rostov, where they suffered
a heavy defeat last year. Any at
tempt to cross the Kerch Straits
to the mainland on a short cut
to the Caucasus at present would
merely make the NaziS vulnerable
to counter attacks unless a strong
Axis naval force could be mustered
in the Black Sea, which appears
TO be out of the question now.
RED FLEET STRONG
Dispatches from IStanbul said
the Russian Black Sea fleet still
was strong. including modern cruis-
erS, deStroyers and submarines and
at least Ole old battleShip. Thus
the Kharkov battle is expected to
decide the whole trend of the cam
paign in southern Russia.

No Pity in Story

There was no pity, no re-
morse as he told his passion
mad story. Sleep had come to
him as usual each night. even
with the knowledge that the red
hand Of murder might rouse him
from his sleep.
When Il did happen. he
phoned for the doctor knowing
full well that his wife would be
dead when the physician got
there.
He absolved the Tingle woman
from all completely in the crime,
not through any sense of gall
lantry but simply because she
had had nothing whatever to do
with il.
In May. Sprouse went to trial.
The evidence accumulated by
the Texas Rangers and the
sheriff's office had been linked
into a chain of conviction that
held even when the farmer re-
futed his confession, claiming it
was wrung from him after
many hours Of questioning.
