BERLIN, July Il. German
shock troops have been storming
tortificationS of the Stain Line
In the northern section of the
Russian front since early this
morning. D.N.B.. the German
news agency, reported this after
noon.
This news agency bulletin was dis
Adolf Hitler's headquarters had is
sued a communique which reported
for the fifth consecutive Gay. merely:
Operations of German allied
troops on the Eastern front proceed
according to plan"
The area of the Stain Line re-
ported under storm was not precisely
fixed. but the agency described it
as the wet zone of the Stain line"
Imeaning, presumably, that which
is based on the River Dnepr.
German infantry actually began
the attack yesterday and fresh shock
troops were rushed up in the early
hours of today and thrown against
the forts which lie behind the So
called wet zone.
March $40 Miles i'm 16 Days.
This appears to be the line of the
German advance most directly to-
ward Moscow Infantry units in it
have marched about $40 miles in
the past Is days, the agency said,
overcoming what it called seem
ingly unconquerable obstacles pre-
pared by the Russians.
In this sector. the Stain Line is
said by the Germans to follow the
Dnepr River south from VltebSk.
Orsha. which the NaZis have re-
ported reaching, is on the Dnepr be-
tween Minsk and Smolensk. where
the first onslaughts of German arm
ored divisions have carried closest

In the Vitebsk sector. German
wireless reports said, ITO Russian
tanks were put out of action
within few hours during Rus
sian counterattack. Motorized
German troops penetrated into
the center of Soviet masses and
there destroyed the tanks, it was
said
"A hint from Moscow that
major new activity has been
started, possibly on the Dnepr,
was the Russian communique's
report that the Germans had
strung nine pontoon bridges over
"X' river on an unSpecifled front
and had succeeded in putting one
tank battalion, two infantry bat
talions and an artillery unit with
% anti-tank guns on the Russian
side.
Further evidence that the Red
Army was bitterly contesting this
thrust was the reported use of
Russian air, artillery and infan-
try forces and the Moscow claim
that all the pontoon bridges were
destroyed, three by aerial bonn
bardment However, the Moscow
communique said no substantial
changes had occurred on the

Saga of the Sea Perhaps to
Some, But Not to F Fishermen

It was an iratescrew of dogfish
fishermen who recovered their
dory on the Tahlequah beach Sun
day morning.
The story related among the
residents of the summer colony
goes like this:
Clarke Thomson, field man for
Shaw Supply Co.. has a small out
board skiff that is likely to swing
six points off its course every
time a seagull flaps its wings in
the vicinity.
At the sbb tide Sunday morn
ing, when the Point Defiance cur
rent boils in around Tahlequah,
Thomson from his home port on
the beach spotted a dory adrift
well off shore.
"Dereliet" Towed In
He put out with his cupboard
and made fast a line to the dere-
lict. well down in the water with
full cargo of dogfish and dogfish
livers. Such a cargo brings a fat
price these days so that skinny
folks can have their necessary
wtamins.
But Thomson doesn't care for
dogfish vitamins. He made shore
with his prize. proceeded to dump
the cargo on the beach and then
attacked the fishy dory with lysol
and scrub brush and holystoned
the thwarts.
About the time the dory began
to shine with a new light q clean
liness, the fishermen arrived on
the scene afoot.

5000 Students Got
Help From NYA

During the 1e40-41 school year
approximately 1000 high school
students and 1000 college students
obtained work experience through
the student work division of the
National Youth Administration
while attending their respective
schools. George p. Sheridan,
Washington state administrator,
said today.
The high school students were
paid between So and Sc a month,
while those on the college program
earned between $40 and $50 a
month. A few graduate students
earned $50 8 month.

tide; but where were its fish and
livers?
Thomson gave up his new boat,
but its cargo had vanished on the
outgoing tide. Beach residents say
the fishermen were quite voluble
and outspoken. In fact, they were
positively frank.
They say there was considerable
discussion of admiralty law-flot-
sam, jetsam, derelicts, salvage, etc.
