Jack Worst Mauled in
Beating Montgomery
NEW YORK, Aug. 5 (AP)
Pvt. Beau Jack won the decision,
Pvt. Bob Montgomery didn't lose
his lightweight' title; $35,864,900
in war bonds were sold, and the
vajstt customers, including sever-1
a hundred wounded veterans, i
saw a whale of a fight show. ,
The two gladiators have fought '
55 rounds to date. Each has won
two decisions, and the count on
rounds is almost as even as that. I
Counting a total of 165 votes for ;
the 55 rounds, two judges and the
referee voting on each, it stands:
Beau Jack 18, Montgomery 77,
even 10.
Jack won last night by piling
w s a
up an early lead with a slashing
body attack against the slow
starting Montgomery, and then
staving off a late rally by the
champion. Although he won,
Jack was the only one to show
any marks of battle. He had a
bloody nose and mouth, and a
damaged eye, while Montgomery
was unhurt.
Nazi Withdrawal
From France Is
Thought Pending
Bv JOHN M. HIGHTpWER
WASHINGTON. Aug 5 (AP)
A general German withdrawal
from France before tjie end of
the present fighting season is ex
pected by some military authori
ties here.
The political Impact In Ger
many of so vast a retreat with
in the next two months or so,
coupled with the enormous back
ward marches on the eastern
front, may be enough to force
the enemy's final surrender or
the collapse of his will to resist.
But the possibility Is not en
tirely discounted In Informed
quarters that the Germans may
try one last stand in the west
provided eastern front develop
ments permit if they can get
back Into their inner fortress pro
tected by the old Maglnot and
Siegfried lines.
The enemy must still hope,
since it is the only hope remain
ing to him, to reestablish a war
of position at some point. But his
troops have been thrown so far
off balance in France that they
almost certainly will not be able
to stop short of the French fron
tier. This point, accepted - by many
military men here, should become
further evident as General
Dwlght D. Elsenhower develops
his strategy aimed at destroying
Hitler's western armies. This is
expected to blossom swiftly Into
new strikes and more advances as
the imminent conquest of Brit
tany adds the facilities of Brest
and St. Nazaire to those of the
crippled port of Cherbourg.
With three such ports the al
lied armies in France may be sup
plied not only from Britain but
directly from the United
