WfATCH Orel. As these words are written, it Is still in German hands, but the Russians are steadily tight ening their grip on it. It may fall any day any hour, for that matter. Its ultimate fall seems certain. Because the Germans have fought fiercely and suffered staggering losses to hold it, its fall will be a hard jolt for them. The more hard Jolts the Ger mans get, the sooner they'll crack. - - , AND keep your eye on Turkey. Turkey has so far sat tight and stayed out of it. It is un likely that she will continue to stay out. It is even a little un likely that she WANTS to. Turkey will want to retain control of the Dardanelles. What chance will she have if she sits tight all the way through, the war. and does nothing to help ANYBODY? AND watch the Balkans. The end of the other war started there, and it isn't too unlikely that history may repeat itself.

ETNA LINE BREACHED BY ALUEDPOWEn ' (Continued From Page One) Jr.'s seventh army was advanc ing beyond the strategic prise of Nicosia and exploiting the break through made In temporary nail positions. Menace Regalbuto Canadians who captured Agira to the southeast, central pivot of the ML Etna line, were men acing Regalbuto, six miles to the east, and facing another bitter struggle. Allied air power struck re peatedly in heavy new blows to shatter port facilities at Messina and Milazzo in Sicily and ranged over Italy to blast air ports near Rome and Naples. Probe Catania The British eighth army con tinued its probing patrols into the powerful German defenses below Catania, the communique said. (A British broadcast recorded by CBS in New York said U. S. troops already were "battering the main enemy defenses on the outskirts of San Stefano," north ern coastal anchor of the Mt. Etna defenses. (The Italians declared that their motor torpedo boats "in waters east of the island repulsed threats carried out by enemy E-boats against Italian convoys," but did not indicate whether the convoys were rushing reinforce ments to Sicily or pulling troops out of the island.) Still Stymied Still stymied by wide mine fields and dominant enemy gun positions on the lower slopes of Mt. Etna, the eighth army fought a number of small engagements with forces of the Goering di vision and elite nazi parachute troops battalions. These were successful, the communique said. ine bulletin s terseness could not hide the fact that the cli mactic struggle of the campaign was in progress, with the Amer icans capitalizing their strategic positions on the weakest sector of the German line. Scale Ridgea The veteran U. S. fighters scaled three 1000-foot ridges in tropical heat and outflanked Ger man . batteries by circuitous mountain routes, exerting re lentless pressure on the hastily- enirencnea enemy. General Patton's orders to "keep striking" were carried out to the limit by bayonet-wielding infantry and skilled crews of mechanized field guns as they surged forward across terrain that in other circumstances might nave been an impregnable de fensive line. Allied torpedo aircraft sank a merchant ship and left two naval vessels afire as they inter cepted axis attempts to reinforce their hard-pressed forces.
