observers believed Montgomery had
completed his preparations for his
Rll out offensive and that the zero

near.
This was borne out by Tunisian
dispatches reporting that Allied

Rommel was not going to give UP
without q 1ght. He made lab ct
the Allied lines west Of Sed-Jenane
In the northern sector yesterday
and gained ground before a coun-
ter-attack restored the Allied posi-
tons. Fighting continues In that
section, the communique said.
There still was no Allied confirma-
ton Of Axis radio assertions that
Gen. Sir Bernard L. Montgomery
had hurled the British Eighth Army
against the northern end Of the
Mareth line.
Today's communique said, how
ever, that the Eighth Army i'm
proved its positions along the north
ern end Of the Mareth line, tndicat-
ing Montgomery was sparring for
positions from which he could start
a general assault. At the southern
end Of the Mareth line, the COM
munique said, Eighth Army patrols
inflicted losses on the enemy and
took some prisoners.
In preparation for the big push
the Americans named a new COM
mander for the south-central Sec
tor. Lieut.. Gen. George s. Patton,
Jr., a rip-roaring tank fighter who
Is known to Army colleagues as
"Old Blood and Cuts" has taken

and with two pistols strapped TO
! his waist, commanded the U. s.
task force which took Casablanca,
scene of the heaviest fighting dur
ing the Allied occupation Of North
Africa.
Patton Is recognized as one Of
the ablest American commanders in
the art of tank warfare and his
appointment indicated that con-
siderable United States armor is
ready to be thrown into the scales
for the battle Of Tunisia.
Reports reaching headquarters
said Patton fought a typical opera
ton in capturing Gafsa. The French
forces approached the town from
the south and Patton sent his
Americans in from the other direc-
tons. AS soon as Gafsa was oc-
cupied, the commander lived UP to
another nickname-"Hell and High
Water" Patton-by sending his
forces racing on east and southeast
until they had occupied a strategic
hill six miles farther toward Gabes.
Before the infantry and armored
forces moved in on Gafsa, Allied
pilots gave the town pasting. Billy
Mitchell bombers, escorted by fight
ers, reared In, plastered the town
and continued to pursue the re-
treating Germans and Italians. Mo-
tor transport, attempting to flee
along the road to Ell Guettar, took
a beating.
That enabled the ground troops
| to penetrate as far as IL miles east
Of Casa at one point.
Two Allied planes are missing
from all operations on the Tunisian
front, but both pilots are safe.

Continued from Page ~


This correspondent has several
times seen superior German forces
avoiding contact. In the course of
two weeks of the heaviest fighting
along the northern front. I have
seen a total Of less than 100 Ger
man planes.
An explanation Of the Luftwaffe's
reluctance would be simple If the
planes were not there to do the Job.
But as far as 1t can be determined,
there have been no Withdrawals and
the Luftwaffe still possesses strong
fighter forces and several hundred
bombers and other aircraft on Tu-
nissan, Sicilian and Sandman air
fields.
The most reasonable explanation
among air1nen who are directing the
battle for the skies Is that the Rus
sian campaign as well and British
and American raids on western Eu-
rope has so overstrained the Luft-
waite that the Tunisian sir COM
mander Is saving his strength for
the decisive phase Of the battle
thinking he may find 1t difficult to
get achievements or even replace
