Nazi Drives Slowing A Soviet war bulletin, said au- thoritative quarters in London, as- serted that “the general strength of the German drives is slowing up.” But Russia’s Premier Stalin in a rare speech, warned the Soviet peo- ple of the grave danger and called upon them to combat the invaders with a huge “scorched earth” pro- gram. “Foment guerilla warfare everywhere,” he said, “blow p bridges and roads, set fire to the forests.” The Berlin radio declared Sta- lin's broadcast, his first to the Rus- sian people since 1036, bore a striking resemblance to the speech cf French Premier Reynaud when German forces broke through the Maginot Line” last summer.

Slugging Billy McCann and the wiry Sitka Kid (Lou Lovas), will give their all to win at the Cali- seum Theatre. In numerous letters from Mc- Cann to his manager, Dean Ham- lin, the former welterweight champ says he is in excellent shape and| is ready for anything that may happen. The present plans of McCann, which includes a fight in Sitka to- night, previous to his Fourth of July fight against the Kid in Ju- neau, is expected to be a decided mistake by McCann. More oil was poured on the flames when it was announced today that the Kid is in excellent condition too, and feels sure that he will give McCann a lacing in the 10-rounder tomorrow night. McCann Always Fights Juneau fight fans will get an eyeful anyhow. That is the predic- tion of many McCann backers here, who brought out the fact, that re- gardless of how McCann feels or what he has done, when he climbs through the ropes to do battle in the squared circle, one can bet their last plugged nickle there will be a fight. Many fans have been thrilled during some of the excellent bat- tles McCann has engaged during the past in Juneau. It might be good to mention that one of those good fights was a ten-round draw with the Kid, his opponent tomor- row night.
