BRITISH ADVANCE
Gen. Alexander Takes
Command OF Ground
Forces In 'Tunisia
ARE NEARING GABES
British Capture Island To
Place Allied Air Power
Near The Port
BY IVES GALLAGHER


ALLIE D HEADQUAR.
TIERS IN NORTH AFRICA,
Feb. 20.-(P)-Military au-
thorities said today the ''tide
has turned" in Tunisia after
American and British troops
hurled back Marshal ROM
mels renewed thrust toward
the Algerian base of Tebessa
in mountain passes near
Sbeitla and Kasserine.
Gen. Sir Harold Alexander,
guiding genius of the British
Eighth Army's unparalleled
1,600-mile advance from the
approaches to Alexandria to
the outposts of the Mareth
line, took personal command
of all allied ground forces in
Tunisia under Gen. Eisen-
hover. He started organiza.

throw the quarter million Axis
troops into the Mediterranean.
Nearing Gabes
Reports that the Eighth army
was about 40 miles south Of Gabes
and had captured the island OF
Dierba, IS miles across the gulf
of Gables to the east, put Allied
air power and British naval power
so close to that port that it was
believed Gabes was no longer OF
any use to the Axis as a supply
base for Nazi forces entrenched
in the Mareth line.
Sfax, a good 80 miles to the
north, now is the main supply port
and this is within easy reach OF
Allied bombers, both from tn 9
western side and from the Eighth
army front.
Allied forces in forward positions
of the Ousseltia valley below Ro-
baa were Withdrawn from the east"
ern to a western line OF hills, be-
cause their position became unten-
able after the Americans were
forced back further south.
Blast Nazi Positions
The British Eighth army sent
curtains of artillery shells in %
German positions approaching the
Mareth line in the Medenine area
and were in contact with the enc"
my there. British patrols spared
with the foe 80 miles south in the
Foum Tatahouine area. D
storms hampered this powerful Ale
lied arm some 65 miles n i d .
southern Tunisia from Libya.
Marshal Rommel sent strong
patrol against an Allied brigade in
the Sbiba region, 20 miles north
of Sbeitla, and also attacked us.
forces guarding the Kasserine gap.
an Allied spokesman said. At Sbl-
ba, the Germans were said to
have lost six tanks and six self
propelled guns. T h spokesman
said enemy losses were even heav'
Iier at the Kasserine pass.
Bad Wather
/ Snow, rain and gales swept most
of Tunisia, grounding virtually all
planes.
U. S. combat troops were de-
ployed on both sides Of Kasserine
pass when the Germans tr K
early Thursday. The enemy made
some small gains in the initial
fighting, but by night the Yanks
were back at their original posi-
tons and the enemy had turned
tail toward the town of Kasserlne.
CThe Germans claimed they had
captured nearly 5000 prisoners
during tine week, mostly Ameri-
cans, and destroyed or captured
1875 heavy tanks, so big guns and
40 armored cars).
Fresh supplies and materiel have
been aastened to the Americans

bers of the Skyhawks have worked
in defense plants.
The outfit has been led by fiery
Al Papike, blond Czech who plays
so minutes of hectic hockey and if
he does miss it's because he's in
the penalty box and not laid up
with injuries.
Papike sparks the attack from
left defense and is the ringleader
in their gas house gang type of
play.
His skating mates are defenseman
Henry Pekkla, center Larry Bots,
wingmen Dave Markovich and
Blackie Prebonich and goalie Will
lard Rcd Fisher.
We're rough and were tough and
well never turn down a hockey
game says Papike and that sums
up the team and the way they play.

SAN DIEGO, Cal, March 3. (UP)
1t was just a short time ago here
in what they call the boom town OF
the west when ice meant just a
little cube floating around in what
you take on Saturday night to for
get the rest of the week.
And then along came a game call
ed ice hockey.
That did it The fans weren't sure
for several weeks just what went on
out there on the ice but it sure as
heck was fun to see those guys
beating each other over the head
with clubs and tripping the other
fellow so he'd fall on his kisSer and
slide to the other end of the rink.
About this time a stock holder in
the Glacier Gardens said he thought
he knew some young fellows back
in Minnesota who thoroughly en-
joyed wearing adhesive tape and
patches on their faces. He wired
friend Instructions to see what he
could do.
HUSKIES ARRIVE
TWenty-four hours later a Wobbly-
spoked, feeble e-motored jalopy was
creeping its way toward the Pacific
ocean with a load of young huskies
anticipating their first look at

They drove up to the front door
of the rink, hoped out and mo-

refused to take Armstrong; bait
to get in close and punch. He met
Henry's rugged bull-like rushes
with his stabbing left, slipped over
solid rights and then backed away
leaving the former champ failing
in midair.
Armstrong forced the pace but
when he did manage to get his di-
rection finder on Joyce he found
the enemy gone before the shell
landed.
Joyce turned the pace red-hot
in the fifth, sixth and seventh
rounds, completely taking COM
mand with annoying. swift punches
that snapped Henry'S head back
and slithered his mouthpiece to the
canvas.
