 Take LuxOn Beachhead
 No opportunity was overlooked to conceal this bold plan from the Japanese. While the assault force was proceeding up the west coast Of Llzon. Kenney's planes and the guerrillas under MacAr- thurs direction concentrated on the destruction of roads, bridges. and tunnels to prevent General Yamashita from shifting forces to meet the assault. The guerrillas in southern Luzon conducted noisy demonstrations to divert Japanese attention to the south. Navy mine sweepers swept the Balayan, BatangaS, and Tayabs Bays on the south coast of Luzon Landing ships and merchantmen approached the beaches until they drew fire, then slipped out under cover of night. United States transport planes flew over Batan- gas and Tayabas and dropped dummies to simulate an airborne invasion. The Tokyo radio re- ported that American troops were trying to land on Luzon but had been driven off. Japanese forces on the island, harassed by guer- rillas and by air, drove north south, east. and west in confusion, became tangled in traffic jams on the roads, and generally dissipat- ed what chance they might have had to repel the landing force. On 9 January the U. S. Sixth Army now composed of the I and XIV Corps, hit the beaches in Lin- gayen Gulf. By nightfan, 680O0 l troops were ashore and in control of 15-mile beachhead, 5000 1 yards deep.
 The landing had caught every | major hostile combat unit in mo- tion with the exception of the | 23d Infantry Division to the southeast of the beachhead in the central Luzon plain and its sup porting 58th Independent mixed brigade 25 miles to the north of Gulf.

The Japanees 10th and 1o5th Divisions in the Manila area which were to se- cure Highway No. 5 on the east ern edge of the central Luzon plain had failed to arrive in time. The brunt of defending this with drawal road to the north fell to the 2nd Japanese Armored Division which seemingly should have been defending the road to Clark Field.
