Nails Face Trap Threat Capture of Krlvol Rog would virtually seal off the tens of thousands of Cermans huddled In Dnepropetrovsk and In the Dnieper bend above Melitopol, where the Russians were report ed to be methodically cleaning out last-ditch nazl units who have been stubbornly holding out for more than n week. Some of the bloodiest finrhtlng of the warwas going on inside the citv, with the red armv spearheads Inching slowly forward at bayonet point, front dispatches said. Elimination of the German forces in the Ilnlener bend, which the Russian communique indicated was practically assur ed after yesterday's advances, would leave the way open for a swift red armv drive across the steppes to Perekop peninsula and the mouth of the Dnieper river where It flows Into the Black Sea.
