PEARL HARBOR, June Il CNS)-A gigantic
naval engagement between the Japanese Imperial
fleet and the u S. Pacific feet already may be
under way today in the vast reaches OF the west

Philippines.
(The Jap Domei agency reported fierce

Marianas)
Since Adm Nirnitz made his momentous dis
closure late yesterday that the Jap armada possibly
the entire imperial fleet, had been sighted in waters
between the Philippines and Marianas, there has
been no further official word. Tokyo, however,
claimed that the battle already was Joined.

Five persons were killed and

John Adams led the next
vote; but the Federal party
died under him. The Repubh-
can-Democrats defeated the Fed
erals badly, but their electors
tied 1878 for Thomas Jefferson
and Aaron Burr.
The deadlock threatened TO
last forever. 1t was thrown at
last into the House of Repre-
sentatives, where Alexander
Hamilton finally swung 1t to
Jefferson. Burr was chosen
vice president.
The result was stark melo-
drama
Burr killed Hamilton on the
dueIing field and our young nation
presented the startling spectacle,
never since equaled, of its vice
president being indicted for the
murder of its ex-secretary OF the
treasury, and having to flee the
country to escape hanging.

Allies Storm
Last Defenses
Of Cherbourg

ALLIED SUPREME HQ.. LON
DON, June II (UP)-American
assault forces stormed the inner
Notifications of Cherbourg today,
and a front dispatch quoted un-
official sources as saying the
doomed German garrison, esti-
mated at 10000, had started
evacuating the beleaguered port.
The vanguard of 1t. Gen. Brad
ley's army closing in on Cherbourg
had crashed through the German
first defense line, and was reported
approaching the citys outskirts in
steady gains rolled up under cover
of a heavy artillery bombardment.
FAST SHIFTING BATTLE
Henry T. Gorrell, United Press
war correspondent, in a dispatch
from "the vicinity of Cherbourg,"
said the fast shifting battle line
appeared to run from Beaumont
Hague, at the center of the north
western cape. down through Mar
tinvast, about two and one-half
miles due south of Cherbourg
proper.
Frenchmen and German war
prisoners, Gorrell saw outside
Cherbourg, told him that the Nazi
garrison had begun pulling out
northwestward into the Cape de
La Hague, where they would face
the choice of surrender or death.
United States artillery, includ-
ing the 155-millimeter Long Toms
which had been Smelling Cher
bourg, set fire to a forest south
east of Cherbourg in a bid TO
smoke out the Nazis blocking the
approaches to the port.
RESISTANCE CRUMBLES
American troops spurted six
miles northward from captured
Valognes, 10 miles southeast of
Cherbourg. during the night in an
advance which Gorrell described
as very fast, indicating that the
resistance on that flank had
4 crumbled.
The German high command dis
missed the battle of Cherbourg
with a single sentence in its daily
COMMUNICATIVE enemy probed
with minor forces against the
southern front of the Cherbourg
fortress.
Unconfirmed reports said some
Americans already had pene-
trated Cherbourg, but more re-
liable information indicated the
climactic battle was raging one
to three miles from the city's
limits.
A Vichy broadcast said Berlin
had acknowledged that American
vanguards had entered the zone"
of Cherbourg and established con-
tact with the German garrison.
