First army troops cut deeper into the wilting Gorman pocket of the Ruhr, driving across the Sieg river and capturing Sicgen on the southern boundary of the uunr. First army headquarters re ported that ' the trapped troops, possibly as many as 150,000, were the German fifth panzer and 15th armies under command of Field Marshal Walter, von Model who was believed to be still in side the pocket. First army offi cers said there was no hope that the Germans might break out. The U. S. Third army which lost the little town of Struthj five miles west of Muehlhausen in a nazi counterattack, recaptured tho town a few hours later. While Patton's far-flung tank columns slowed down momen tarily to regroup and bring up fresh supplies for the drive on Berlin, two strong bands of nazi elite guards broke loose on a i wild gun spree far behind his ad vanced spearheads. A force of at least 400 German riflemen, backed up by four tanks, struck suddenly at Amer ican infantrymen in Struth, five miles west of captured Muehl hausen. The Germans attacked in the pro-dawn darkness this morning anu orove me American garrison out of the town after a short, bitter street fight. The surprise attack followed by a few hours a similar coun terblow against American-hold Bad Sooden, 14 miles west bf Struth and 111 miles east of Kas sel. The fight was still raging lunousiy around Bad Sooden early today, but the Americans apparently were more firmly es tablished there and appeared to be holding fast, Tin Can Salvage To Be Resumed Here April 25 (Continued from Page 1) following the initial collection. the monthly pick-up service will oe provmod By the three garbage services serving tho city which have volunteered the use of trucks and drivers to moke the monthly collections at their own expense, and two helpers will be provided through the salvage committee. Wayne Schuster, Lynn Wil liams and Charlos Peck are the operators of the services who are cooperating in the effort to sal vage as many cans as possible in the city. Once the cans- are .cleaned and prepared for the collectors, they should be placed In bag! or car tons to facilitate handling, ai tt is necessary to handle them at least three times before ,thev are .finally placed In a car ready to go to the dctinning plant. Three Counliai Cooperate In order to expedite shipment and provide carload lot at more frequent intervals, the salvage committees of Union, Baker and Umatilla counties will join in; filling the cars. A car will be started on ,its way at Baker, re ceive additional cans In La Grande, and will then no to Pen dleton for the final portion of its load. Salvage officials point out that Malaya and the Dutch East In dies, chief sources of tin, are still in the hands of the Japanese, and that until they are again in al lied hands there can he no appre ciable increase in the nvailable supplies of crude tin. They s.y there is no possibility of increas ing supplies from other sources, making it imperative that every ounce of tin be salvaged from cans. This goes into many types of war ordnance, and in addition it Is used in containers for food and drugs for. men at the front, for making Instruments that ease the pain of the wounded, and for many other, purposes for which science has not yet found satis factory substitutes.
