On the eastern fringe of the moun-tain-and-jungle peninsula the Tokyo radio claims that American defense lines in the vicinity of Abucay, about thre ? miles north of Balanga. have
been pierced.
These drives would place the Japanese roughly 20 air miles north of Mariveles, the port with which MacArthur communicates with Fortress Corregidor. three miles across Manila
bay's north channel.
This means that MacArthur’s band is now apparently constricted into a narrow area only about 20 miles long and roughly 13 miles wide—an area relatively easily defended hut hardly largo enough for maneuver and one which heavy and persistent Japanese pressure seems likely to nibble away
