OF
Rome, July 6. (U.R) Ameri
can armored forces battled half
way through the stronghold of
Rosignano, keystone to the Ger
man defenses before Livorno,
today while other allied troops
smashed northward toward Flor
ence and Ancona in a general
advance of one to more than
five miles.
, Driving rains and deep mud
hampered the attacking 5th and
8th armies, but official reports
said they were moving north
ward with increasing speed all
along the front, riding rough
shod over extensive enemy
demolitions and the bitterest op
position since the fall of Rome.
Only on the western coastal
strip were the desperate Ger
mans able to stem the allied tide
momentarily, taking every ad
vantage of The rugged terrain
and long prepared defenses
around Rosignano, 12 miles be
low Livorno, and the coastal
town of Castiglioncello, 10 miles
below the big seaport.
Even there, the Nazis were
being pushed back yard by yard
through the gun-studded streets
by powerful American tank' and
infantry forces that slugged
their way into the center of the
town late yesterday.

This
is a
piston
Inside your engine are cylinders...
like so many upside-down water
glasses. And inside each cylinder is a
snug-fitting piston. Pistons must slide up
and down about 1800 times every minute
your engine is running.
Try how fast that is
with your dish mop in
a glass tumbler. Naturally,
it'll go easier if you suds the
tumbler first in nice soapy N
water. Which brings us to
what we started to say . . .
lubrication.
Without constant lubrication your
car would quickly become' one of the
5000 American automo
biles that are junked
every day. Dry pistons,
for instance, would
Cheat up and get stuck
tight in seconds.
That's why examining the oil level
in your car is a ritual with Shell
people ... a ritual you should never discour
age by "guessing" your oil's all right Be
cause if it isn't, you're heading for trouble.
Shell does not
want you in trou
ble. You're much too
pretty. Besides if a
piston sticks you
won't be coming in
for free water, air,
windshield wipine.
etc., etc. Nor would you need our gasoline,
oil, tires, grease jobs, light fuses, batteries,
and things like that

By United Press
American army troops captured
a second airdrome on Noemfoor
island off Dutch North Guinea
to open twir bases today for U.
S. bombers within 770 miles of
the Philippines while U. S.
marines and soldiers mopped up
the last Japanese defenders on
northern Saipan island in the
Marianas.
Disclosing that the bloody
Saipan campaign was nearing a
successful conclusion, Admiral
Chester W. Nimitz expressed
"high hopes" of increasing pres
sure on Japan with his Pacific
fleet now approaching peak ef
ficiency. - .
Nimitz at a press conference
said the fleet had developed a
secret weapon for operations in
the western Pacific solution of
the problem of supply.

The 1 l-months-old Luchter
Jiand baby, Paul, abandoned by
his mother at a bus station in
Portland last Sunday, was back
in Medford today at the home of
a local minister and his wife
who requested that their , iden
tity not be made public.
The father, Fred Luchterhand
an employe at Camp White, re
turned the child to Medford
yesterday and took it to the
people who had cared for it
since the first of March.
According to the minister's
wife, the baby was taken Into
their home when Luchterhand
told them of the difficulty he
was having in locating some
body to care for the child.
Luchterhand and the minister
are employed in the same de
partment at Camp White.
Couple Divorced
She said that Luchterhand ob
tained a divorce from his wife,
and custody of the child, sev
eral months ago, but that Mrs.
Luchterhand returned to Med
ford last week and, after a long
discussion, it was decided that
Mrs. Luchterhand would take
the baby to the home of her
parents in Oneida, N. Y., where
both formerly resided. Luchter
hand, the minister's wife said,
bought them bus tickets to
Oneida.
Prior to abandoning the child
in Portland, Mrs. Luchterhand
telephoned Luchterliand here
and told him she and the baby
were stranded there, unable to
find seats on east-bound buses or
a room in the city, the minister's
wife said.
Had Train Tickets
Luchterhand then bought
them train tickets and they were
wired from here. In the mean
time, however, Mrs. Luchter
hand had left the baby with a
strange woman in the Portland
bus station, saying she wanted
"to make a telephone call," and
failed to return, according to
Portland police.
When the train ticket wire
arrived in Portland and Mrs.
Luchterhand could not be locat
ed, Portland police pieced two
and two together and tele
phoned Luchterhand here, thus
establishing the identity of the
baby.
So far as is known, Mrs. Luch
terhand has not yet been picked
up in Portland.

ley of Germany.
The first American airmen
returning from the continent
said the bombers ran into in
tense antiaircraft fire at some
places but saw no German fight
ers. The pin-point bombing of
the widely scattered targets was
carried out under ideal condi
tions of perfect visibility.
