Thursday, Friday WILED By IN CIVIC SQUARE (Continued from Psge One) ture could be plainly heard by pasa- eraby. The explosions of at least a score of huge bombs In the black, early morning hours claimed a toll esti mated as high as 80 dead and 300 Injured. Victims Under' Debris But defense authorities, declaring the victims of two weeks of Intense bombing and shelling had reached "thousands," said the real toll may never be known, since dozens were burled deep under charred and smok ing wreckage. They declared "many refugees" of Tuesday's bombardment, huddled In the Puerto del Sol aubway station In the heart of Madrid, had been as phyxiated when one bomb blocked the Carmen street entrance and an other, landing at the AJcala street end of the platform, filled the sta tion with dense acid fumes. The projectile wa not a gas bomb, however, the officials aseserted. A squadron of Insurgent bombers, appearing over the city early this morning, spilled most of their bomb In the vicinity of the telephone build ing, nerve center of Madrid's com munication with the outside world. However, the building was not bit. Ghostly ticene In the early morning sunlight Ma drid's Grand Via was a scene of ghastly devastation. The pavement we covered with btoken glass and splinters of wood and stone. Most of the windows of the fuen- carra side of the telephone building were broken by a blast which wrecked a nonrby structure. This building still was smouldering. With the window panes blasted out, curtains of Gran Via store windows flapped In the crisp morning breeze. On Conde do Penalver avenue, the front of a store formerly owned by an American company was torn out. Two automobile parked before the building were wrecked. Many buildings on Carmen and P reel ad os streets were destroyed. The early mornlDg raid alarmed the various embassies In the Castellans section. From the American embassy, the roar of the bombers could be heard distinctly as the insurgent squadron passed and repassed over the buildings en route to the point where they dropped their bombs, less than a mile away. Americans Seek Shelter Many Americans abandoned their beds and groped their way through the darkness to the cellars of the embassy. . There they listened to the crash ing bombs and the roar of rifle and machine gun fire from the University City section in the northwest part of the city, Invade early In the week by fascist shock troops. , However, despite the repeated raids, much of Madrid's frightened population followed thtr usual occu pations this morning. Line stood outside of stores, the women of Madrid refusing to aban don, their places airplanes or no air planes. Children scurried about at play, ducktng Itno nearby houses only when the drone of the planea became too loud. At least four bouses tn the center of the city were virtually tumbled to the ground In the morning raid. The League of Nntlonst is consider ing celling a conference on calendar reform.
