Minnesota Edges Out
Wisconsin, 28 10 26,
In Hair--Raiser
BY the Associated Press.

Dy tue ASSOCldteI FreSS.
MADISON, Wis, Nov. 25.-Min.
nesota conquered Wisconsin's gall
liant Badgers, % to 26, today in their
Big Ten football final, but only after
a hair-raising offensive battle.
Minnesota, displaying a powerful
ground offensive with Red Williams
and Vic Kulbitski carrying the ball
in the opening minutes, suddenly
shifted to the air for their first
score with Williams finding John
Lundquist with touchdown pass.
The Badgers got back into the ball
game in the closing seconds of the
period when John Davey fell on the
ball back of the Gophers' goal line
after Williams had fumbled Tex
Cox's punt.
The Gophers increased their lead
in the second period on q 69-yard
gallop by Williams and "a 12-play
power march for two more touch
downs, and the Badgers appeared to
be soundly whipped.
Wisconsin came back, however, to
cut the margin to a single touch
down with an end zone shot from
Freshman Earl (Jug) Girard to
Jack Mead, and caught fire in the
third period to take the lead.
Girard scored on a charge through
center after a pair of pass plays that
brought the ball to the 6, and the
Gophers counted again On a lateral
from Girard to Ted Cox
Minnesota charged back at the
start of the final period, and after
the Badger line had stopped them
cold on the the Gophers re-
turned to the 81 and Kasper fired
long pass to Bill Narcotic, who
stepped across for the winning score.

the last rugged peaks of the Apen-
mines for a natural defense.
Although German Marshal Albert
Kesselring managed to pull the bulk
of his forces out of the trap Allied
Commander Gen. Harold AleXan-
der had set by attacking at Casino
to the south and then later at Anzio
at the enemy's back to the north
west, the vigor of the U. S. and Brit
ish drive resulted in the infiiction of
heavy casualties.
Not only was a high toll taken of
German troops in the line and of
their rearguards putting up a des-
perate delaying action, but Allied
war planes ranging over the enc
my's route of retreat shot up hun
dreds of vehicles wheeling Nazi SOL
diers and equipment to the north
Because of their refusal to
send more troops into Italy and
thus draw upon their precious
reserves for the invasion from
the west, the German high COM
mand was compelled to surren-
der Rome and the boot Of the
big peninsula.
SOFTENED UP
Important factor in the Allies
landings on the French channel
coast was the prolonged lombard
ment of enemy positions within the
whole area by fleets of thousands of
U. S. and British war-planes of all
types, from fashy fghter-bombers
to the more ponderous Flying For
tresses and Lancasters.
Notifications, airfields, railroads,
power stations-everything of use
to the Nazis in the defense against
the invasion came under the bomb
sights of Allied airmen.
By hammering at railroad
lines, the Allied command
sought to disrupt the transport
of troops and supplies to the
areas where landings might be
made. Not only did Vichy's col
laborationists plead with French
engineers to stay at the throt-
ties in the face of the severe
bOmbardmentS, but the Ger
mans even rushed key transport
squads to help in keeping open
the battered rail cOmmunica-
tons.
Thus was the invasion launched
only after the most careful and thor
ough destruction of essential ele-
ments in the enemy's defenses.
FORTRESS BARRIERS
Despite the extravagant propagan-
da of Hitler's atlantic WALL" the
Nazis repeatedly have taken no
chances on putting all of their chips
on it; on the contrary, not only
have they spoken of the necessity
of launching decisive counter
attacks against the invading forces,
but they also have constructed de-
lenses as far back as the German
frontier.
In constructing these defenses far
to the rear of the English channel,
the once-masters of the ''blitz" have
recognized the full weight which Su-
preme Commander Gen. Eisenhow-
er will be able to throw at them. AS
a result, not only have they built
strong Notifications of concrete and
steel for miles back of the French
coast, but they have also converted
the once heralded Maginot line into
defensive bastion, to support their
own famed Seigfried or west wall. !"

and v. D. and British troops pOured<
ashore, with tanks and other equip
ment unloaded behind them.
The invasion of Europe was on,
the second front had been estab-
lished!
Thus did June 6, 1914, go down in
history as the date on which the
democratic powers of u. S. and Brit
ain challenged Adolf Hitler's New
Order" on his own backgrounds of
western Europe, the mighty gate to
the Nazis' continental fortress, or
gained under dominion of the Ger
man wehrmacht.
Taking place 80 miles across the
channel from England, the first AL
lied landings were made between the
great ports of LIE Havre and Cher
bourg on the French coast, while
masses of planes and ships bonn
barded Dieppe, Abbeville and Bou-.
logne, farther to the east.
From the start, the invasion was
a fight to the finish, with German
destroyers and E-boats attacking
the huge Allied fleet off the French
coast. German reservists concen-
trated behind the lines for emer-
gency service, rushed forward to
meet U. S. and British paratroopers
descending from the skies, and to
combat Allied armored units press
ing inland with tanks.
In the thunderous crescendo of
the early fighting, the Allies pene-
trated from seven to ten miles in
land, and reinforcements were put
ashore to support the attack.
Under supreme command of U. S.
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, with
British Gen. Bernard L. Montgom-
cry in charge of ground troops and
British Adm. Bertram Home Ram
say leading the naval forces, U. S.
and British fighting men spearhead-
ed the invasion, receiving support
from smaller units of Norwegians,
Poles, Dutch, French and Greeks.
AS the Allies secured beachheads
on the French coast and thrust in
land toward Paris, German forces
counterattacked vigorously under
icy, 69-year-old Field Marshal Won
Rundstedt and storied Erwin Rom
mel. Adolf Hitler, himself, report
edly rushed to the invasion area
to preside over the enemy's mill
tary directorate.
Speaking in Britain's house of
commons after the invasion got I'M
der way, Prime Minister Winston
Churchill declared that the landing
operations were supported by II, 900
first-line aircraft, available for use
In any particularly critical sector.
The Allies invasion came after
the victorious assault on Rome and
weeks of intensive aerial lombard
ment designed to wreck his COM
munications, defenses and industry
m the west.
Throwing the full weight of the
u. S. Fifth and British Eighth ar
mics at the Germans in the italian
offensive, the Allies successfully tied
up an estimated Is divisions, or
about 300, 900 Nazis, in that country.
Rather than call upon additional
reserves to stem the Allies deter
mined drive in Italy, the Nazi high
command decided on laborious re-
treat up the mountainous peninsula
to the north, where they could elimi-
nate the constant threat of landings
in their rear and yet fall back upon
