Europe Anxious
About Peace
UNDATED, Oet. 5 </P)—Hitlei
again, as many times in the past
kf-pt Europe in an anxious seal
about hifc intentions toward cor
tinuing the war. While informed
sources an Berlin said he left this
morning for Warsaw to review
the triumphal parade of Nazi
troops, the German Fueherer is
to address the Riechstag tomor
I
1 row at 3 am PST. The speech
will possibly outline peace terms.
Whether a basis for ending hos
; tPities will be suggested or whe
ther such terms will be accept
able by the British and French
is conjecture.
Warfare on the battlefield is
1 at a minimum on the western,
front. A French communique1
I said there was “intermittent ar1
I tillery action.” A German com-i
' munique called the artillery fire
1 minor but added there was scout
iing plane activity.
On the eastern front Germany
! said mopping up continued j
: against shattered remnants of
Polish troops. Dispatches from ,
Luxembourg said the French ■
were in fu l control of ‘ha Borg
forest pockut be tween the Mos
elle and Saar Rivers.
Woodchopper’s Song
I A woodchopper sat on a Y ukon
1 Flat
Watching the salmon run.
The old fish wheel kept up its
squeal
While looping the loop in the
sum
A husky squaw that chopper
called “Maw,”
With a malemute dog by her
side,
Had been whiling away
I The entire day
Making “socks” from caribou
hide.
j —Chas. Royal.

LOU AMBERS PLAYING FOR KEEPS
- __..._- . . • "
Lou Ambers was playing for keeps when he crossed this right into Henry Armstrong's jaw as he fought his way back into possession
of his lightweight crown in 15 rounds at New York. Even in the early rounds, when this picture was made, the boys had discarded
"fancy Dan" tactics in favor of rugged slugging.
