RUSSIANS
 CAPTURE NEW POSITIONS

LONDORN, Oct. 23.-(AP)- Russian troops captured the east Prussian highway center of Goldap toway, which is 18 miles inside Germany, and broadened their offensive along the entire eastern boundary province of Germany.
 A German communique said there were deep pentrations into the Nazi lines between Goldap and Suwalki and they acknow ledged the fact that the front is now 10 airmiles long from the besieged Memel, which was the northernmost German claimed city and Augustow in the Suwal- Xxi sector.
 On the eastern front the Rus sians on the Arctic Sea, pulled up to the border of Norway in a wide front, within striking dis tance of the Norwegian iron ex- port harbor of Kirknes and the German submarine ai base, which is constan tthreat to Murmansk and Archangel convoy routes to Russia.
 Far to the south the Russians are less than 131 miles from Austria and 80 miles from Vienna.
 Moscow announced victories in both Hungary and Yugoslavia to- day.
 Somber in Yugoslavia, a place of over s2 900 inhabitants, and an important communication center, toppled, as we'll as Nyireg- yhaza a Hungarian city of 56,000, which is close to the Czechoslo- vakia border.

WASHINGTON, Oct 23.-(AP) Ball of Minnesota, a announced that he would vote for the support of President Roosevelt in the fall elections.
 The senator said that Roosevelt had met the foreign issue more squarely than the republican nom- inee, Gov. Dewey. He said that the President had kept a record of the action of the meetings and stated squarely and unequivocal- ly on the two vital controversial issues on which the isolationists kept us out of the League of Ma tions.
 The senator added that he in- sisted that an organization be formed without delay before the hostilities cease if it is to be granted the power to use military force against the future aggres- sors without requiring individual

ALLIED ARMIES SMASH AT
 NAZI DEFENSES

LONDON Oct. 23.-tAP)-Six allied armies pounded against a tightly drawn Nazi defense, in a fan from Holland to Switzerland, with unceasing pressure aimed at opening the eventual cracks and to permit the smash to Berlin in a rain of blows.
 It is not yet the grand coordi- hated offensive, but it is intended to hammer the enemy line ever thinner, and mask the timing and the place for the main attack.
 The assault on and against the shrinking south Schelde pocket west of Antwerp is hard held, it has been reported.
 From Aachen to the upper en- trance to the Saar valley of Eharp and Cloven and Vosges Passes, the British Second Army is striking in three columns on a twelve mile front.
 From the western side it's Hol- land hub at Shertogenbosch the Canadian army swept from Ess- chen on the Dutch-Belgium bor- der, 16 miles, after two days of hammering methodically toward Rossendoa.

 Governor Dewey opposed the delay, but he had not met the issue squarely, the senator said.
 The second vital issue he has spoken for is for strong interna- tional security organization.
 In each speech President Roosevelt so worded his commit ment that both the isolationist and internationalists could find comfort and support in what he said.

 Air and sea power based in the Philippines can sweep this sea route. From Davao, Mindanao- the archipelago's main southern island-the air line distance to French Indo-C China is approxi- mately 1000 miles, across the southern China Sea. Northern Luzon is about 600 miles from the China coast.
 Constant patrol will minimize the flow of war materials to Ja- pan. The sea expanses are wide. and some ships probably will penetrate the blockade. But their cargoes will be small.
 The imperial war machine then will be forced back on stockpiles accumulated feverishly during the past three years. These prob ably are sizable. But without re- plenishment, they will place time limit on Japan's ability to wage large-scale war.
 In Japanese hands the Philip pines and Formosa-the northern geographical tail-barred the way to China. Fleet and aerial units based there presented too great a menace to Amrrican communi cation lines to be by-passed. Fi- nal occupation or naturalization of the main islands in this chain will permit the Allies to prepare their drive to he continent.
 That will split the Japanese empire in half, isolating the new 1y-acquired southwestern do- mains. In effect, sizable Nippon csc garrisons from Indo-China to the Indies will be by-passed on

Cutters Start Tuninq
For Hockey Series
with Kits Tilt

Curtis Bay Coast Guard Cutters
hockey team of Baltimore, which
has made Washington its second
home this season, will compete tn
the annual playoffs of the Amateur
Hockey Association, according to an
by Phil Thompson,
secretary of the circuit.
Last season the Cutters won the
Eastern Amateur League champion
ship, but dropped from that loop
this year. Others in the playoffs
will be Boston Olympics, New York
Rovers, Philadelphia Falcons and
Brooklyn Crescents. At least two
OF the games will be played in
Washington, regarded as neutral
ice.
The Cutters will tune for this
playoff by playing five games here,
next of which comes up on Sunday
night at Uline Arena against the St.
GATHERINGS Club of Ontario. The
Kits mostly are munitions plant
employees and several of them are
well known internationally. Best Of
the lot appears to be Nels Stewart,
who set National Hockey League
record that still stands when, be-
tween 1925 and 1910, he fired 1923
goals and made 191 assists for a
total of 514 points.
Among the other popular players
are Judd McAtee, winger, who is
under contract to the Detroit Red
wings, and Leo Sargent, a talented
goalie.

BY the Associated Press.
CANBERRA. Australia, Feb. 25.-
The Australian government would
not for one moment entertain sug-
gestions that New Britain Island be
handed over to the United States,
Herbert E. Evatt, Australian min
lister Of external affairs, declared
today IN the House Of Representa-

Neither would it entertain similar
suggestions concerning New Gale

The suggestions had been made
by Sir Keith Murdoch in the Mel

Until it was occupied by the Japa-

Petain Reported Convinced
Germany Has Lost War

from Madrid that 1t understood
Marshal Petain, Vichy chief of
state, "in private conversation, has
repeatedly given 1t as his firm con-
viction that Germany now has def

MADRID, Feb. Is (P).-Two Ber-

occasion to give purported quota
tions from two Of the most promi-

which interested Frenchmen here
today.
Marshal Petain, according to the

at a diplomatic reception in Vichy
that when the war broke out I was
Ambassador in Madrid and if Paris
had listened to my advice France
would not have declared war;"
Pierre Laval, minister of govern

ception-presumably the same one
at which Marshal Petain spoke
that natural geography placed
France beside Germany and If the

To Present AAU Rinu
Prizes tuesday Night

Arch Mcdonald and Russ Hodges
have been added to the AAU box
ing championship card at Uline
Arene Tuesday night, but the sports
casters will not don the duelling
mittens. Instead, they will an
nounce the star-spangled, 15-bout
card and preside at presentation
ceremonies when the new champs
receive their awards.
Novices, as well as seniors, will get
the gold-plated championship belts,
but the senior champs also will get
q trip to Boston, where they'll COM
pete in the National AAU title tour
|ney.
Tournament Director Billy Blake
reports the best advance sale the
AAU ever has had for the tourna-
ment and spacious Uline Arena
may be packed Tuesday night.
While Pete's A. c., with six men
qualified for the last round, appears
to have the novice team honors
sewed up, the battle between st.
Mary's and the Merrick Club for
senior laurels should be closer than
your next breath. Merrick has five
men on the card and the Alexan-
drians have three, including Light
weight Champion Pete Celinski.
Apollo has four men in the finals,
but, unfortunately for Coach Glenn
Drake, two Of them meet in the 147-
pound bout. Joe Cannon, Golden
Gloves champion at that weight, is
down for scrap with Teammate
Tom Hollan, and while it should be
a corker it hurts the Northeast
crews title hopes.
Merrick hopes of winning are vest
ed in Lanky Dave Staples, who
meets Celinski. Pete is a top-heavy
favorite, but Staples mas great en-
durance and it may pave the way
for an upset Tuesday night.

necticut avenue, testified In the

The witness, called by the Govern
ment In the third day Of the COM
mission hearing into alleged unfair
trade practices by the Kronheim
firm, denied under croSs-examina-
ton, however, that the wholesaler
had ever treated him In "a coercive
manner" The question was asked
by Attorney Alvin L. Newmyer and
drew q protest from Commission
Counsel Floyd o. Collins.
Trial Examiner John w. Norwood
overruled Mr.. Collins objection.
Recessed Until Monday.
Mr.. Burka admitted that his
former store manager was raising
the devil" about the purchase OF
merchandise from Kronheim. He
said the manager complained be-
cause storage space in the store was
getting short. Mr.. Burka said he
sold out his Connecticut avenue

Washington Seeking
Revenge in Mo|Iis
Battle Monday

MiddleWeights and featherweights
probably will be given the feature
spots on Monday nights fight card
at Turner's Arena. Gabe MenendeZ,
matchmaker, has booked four eight
round matches in an all-star card
and all he has to do now is decide
which two bouts to pick for the final
and semifinal positions on the pro-
gram.
Most interest probably will be
shown in the middleweight go be-
tween Tommy Mollis, the old master
from Baltimore, and Bee Bee Wash
ington, District youth, who lost a
close one to Mollis recently. Wash
ington had been moving steadily
through local and nearby middle
weight ranks until he ran into
Mollis and dropped split decision.
Distance May Hurt Mollis.
That match was six-rounder
and Mollis was firing at the end.
It's possible that the extra two
heats for which Monday nights
session is booked will swing things
in Washington's favor.
The feather go is between Johnny
Cockfield and Harry Diduck. It
holds promise of action because
Cockfield, although he has won few
of his matches here, is a dangerous
slugger. This may give Diduck a
busy evening trying to keep out of
Cockfield's reach and to outpoint
him.
Other matches on the card are
between Okie Greer and Bobby
Brown, welterweights, and between
Billy Duncan and Jimmy Bell,
heavyweights.
