Americans, Nazis Clashing As Tunisian Invasion Opens

CAIRO--Victorious British Imperial forces rolling across Libya at the rate of 60 miles a day, probably have over-run Derna and are surging westward toward Benghazi, 300 miles from the Egyptian border, desert reports indicated tonight.

Imimi, 38 miles southeast of Derna, fell Saturday and with it the last possible Axis defense line east of Benghazi, however, aerial reports that Axis ships were evacuating Benghazi harbor indicated that German Marshal Erwin Rommel will not halt his fleeing forces cast of the marshes around EI Agheila, 140 miles southwest of Benghazi.
