way. Both, you need not worry,
will be in tip top shape as both are
clean cut boys who know nothing
but to keep themselves in first class
physical condition.
For some time now we have ex-
pressed our opinion as to who will
win when these two boys get to-
gether. In case you came in late
we'll do a little repeating. . We
pick Riley. Simply because he
is the better an-round fighter of
the two and has a more impressive
fight record.
Riley, although he hasn't fought
in many top spots in town, has
fought and stopped better OPP
ponents than Graves has who usual
ly fights main eventers and doesn't
always win as impressively as
Riley does.
Riley seems to have more ex-
perience than Graves has. He
fights with a clearer head hits
harder and knows how to act
when he's under fire. l can't
honestly say the same for Graves.
Jackie has a temper and that,
my dear readers, isn't always an
asset when you're a fighter.

Harry Hirsch, who is in charge of

to be arranged had called for

Today Tony Stecher is busy in

Eyewitness Relates Nazi Surrender
In Italy OF One Million Soldiers
BY HERBERT G. KING
Representing the Combined
American Press

ROYAL PALACE AT CASERTA|
near NAPLES, May 2.-(P)-Near-
ly 1000. 900 German soldiers were
surrendered to the Allies in TO-
minute ceremony here Sunday.
The surrender, which was nego-
tiated by two German officers rep
resenting their commanders, Col.
Gen. Heinrich Won Vietinghoff-Sch-
eel and Gen. Karl Wolff, affects
the two German armies in the
whole of northern Italy and western
Austria.
On the Allied side the negotia-
tons were carried out by British
1t. Gen. w. D. Morgan, chief of
staff at Allied headquarters who
represented Field Marshal Sir Ha-
rold Alexander, Allied commander
in chief in the Mediterranean. Al
though he was in the building, Alex
ander did not meet the Germans.
Representing the American press
I witnessed the surrender which
took place at 1918 a. m. E.W.T.,
Sunday after several days of secret
negotiations while racing American
and British tanks and sky armadas
were blasting the heart out Of the
Germans north of the river Pc.
The Germans had already init
mated their willingness to come to
some sort of agreement more than
month ago, but the conditions
were not acceptable to the Allies,
who went ahead and launched their
offensive to beat the Nazis to
their knees and oblige them to &C
cept our terms.
Today's scene proved that Hit
ler's ranting 1--WE will never sur-
render" were just idle words and
meaningless to an Army that has
been well and truly thrashed on
the field of battle.
The secret negotiations had been
lengthy because of the difficulty OF
transporting the two German rep
resentatives back and forth be-
tween Caserta and their northern
italian headquarters by special
plane.
1t took the Germans only IL min
utes to publicly admit defeat Sun
day in a room on the second floor
of this 18th century Italian ,rennais-
sance palace. On the plain walls,
painfully white in the glare of a
battery OF eight movie lights, hung
two staff maps of northern Italy,
where the death blow had been
idealt.

only road down which it could
travel to Bataan, had to cross the
Pampanga River by means of the
Calumpit Bridge to reach San Fer
nando Pampanga and the home
stretch of the escape road to, Ba-
taan. The bridge was a serious
bottleneck. The Japs knew it and
started for it, bent upon trapping a
large part of the South Luzon
force.
We had to protect that bridge
and San Fernando Pampanga.
With the 500 men left of the 91st
Division, plus a regiment of the
list Division and a battalion of
field artillery, I took a position
along the Pampanga River north
of Baliaug at II o'clock on the
night of December 80, while the
South Luzon force moved as quick
ly as possible over the bridge and
through San Fernando Pampanga.
During the night a company of
the 1920 Tank Battalion was added
to this defense.

At 1890 on the morning of De-
cember 81 the Japs attacked. The
I91st, somewhat reinforced, held its
position all day in sharp fighting
while Gen. Jones South Luzon
men ran what amounted to a CANT
let. BY midnight the mapority of
Gen. Jones men were safely

protected by the successful stand
Eof the 18th and 2lst Divisions
north of the town.
I welcomed in the dreary new
year of 1912, which was to see us
fall and become the victims of
barbarous captivity, by ordering
the plucky 91st to begin its own
withdrawal over the Calumpit
bridge and to be done with it be-
fore daylight.
was at the bridge at dawn as the
last elements of the 91st Division
crossed. The last truck, one Of the
civilian ones I had earlier COM
mandeered, stopped at the edge of
the bridge and reported to me that
it had been fired upon by a Japa-
nese patrol at a Crossroad about 500
yards away. I adjusted my field
glasses and in the early light of the
morning could see the enemy patrol,
the tip of the Jap advance guard,
coming at us.
BLOW it," I told Col. Skerry.
But he hesitated, and then in
formed me that Maj. Manzano, of
the 14th Engineers, fine Philippine
Scout officer. and platoon cf fell

demolitions between Manila and this
escape bridge, and blowing it would
cut them off.
