WreckaRe Sighted

Norfolk, Va, April 8 = (U.P) - The naval air station here reported today that a message had been re- ceived from an airplane operating from the Carrier Wasp saying that wreckage of a plane, possibly the missing navy patrol bomber, had been sighted near Machipongo Inc let on the eastern shore of Virginia.
 Lieutenant J. N. Bolt of the naval air station said the message gave no details, but simply said the plane had sighted life raft and wreckage of plane near the inlet, which is about 20 miles north of Cape Charles, Va, on the Peninsula which comprises Virginia's outer Atlantic coast.
 Lieutenant Bolt said searching parties would be dispatched imme- diately by boat to the location.
 He said the message reported the wreckage was about two miles off shore.
 No indication was given in the message from the plane as to whe- ther any of the two officers and eight enlisted men aboard the miss ing plane were on the raft.

Germany Springs Big
 Surprise On Enemies

and light artillery carried on mule- back crossed over the mountains while motorcycle units bumped along behind over almost painless mountain heights.
 Another soldier-reporter told how storm troops, armed with fiame- throwers, assaulted well-built block houses and bunkers in the moun- tains.
 Like Maglnot Line
 The technique employed was said to have been the same as that used against the fortresses Of the Magi- not Line.
 Some of these forts on the Greek frontier, 1t was said, were located in passes at heights of 4,000 feet above the Strurna Valley. They were cap- tured only after fiercest fighting in which dive.bombers and tanks CO., ordinated in an assault.
 German forces are fighting their way along despite difficulties of ter- rain which are made more rigorous because the Jugoslav and Greek forces are destroying road cornmuni- cations as they retreat, the high command said.
 German planes, despite unfavor- able weather, are cooperating fully with the ground forces.
 Further trolling attacks" have been made on military objectives of the fortress of Belgrade" accord- ing to the high command.
 New big fires have been observed in the main railroad station of Bel- grade, It was said, and both explo- sive and incendiary bombs have again rained on the station area.
 Stuka dive bombing planes end destroyer planes bombed Jugoslav airports and destroyed 32 grounded planes and severely damaged two others, the high command said.
 Naxi Attacks Ferocious
 Ferocious mass attacks by Ger man planes have seriously weakened the entire fighting capacity of both Jugoslavia and Greece, Nazi inform ants said.
 In the area west of Belgrade, the high command said, German planes have destroyed bridges, railroad stations and railroad tracks and have scored direct hits on troop trains and military freight trains.
 German bombing planes attacked infantry and truck columns with bombs and machine guns in the Skoplje area, the commudique said.
 Twenty enemy fighting planes were shot down in air battles on the Balkan front, 1t was said, mak- ing total enemy losses on all fronts yesterday 63 planes. Germany lost only four planes, it was asserted.
 Flaming Belgrade, which the Jugoslav government had said was an open city, has been bombed for the fifth time, 1t was disclosed.
 At least eight of jugoslav's key air ports have been wiped out, Nazis asserted, and attacks have been made on railroad functions. troop trains and troop concentration points among other objectives.
 Though the total of planes claim ed destroyed in German operations in the Balkans was only l30 during the 4e hours, Nazis said this figure might be read in the light of the Ismallness of the Jugoslav and Greek air forces and aviation industries, so that losses would be almost tr- lreplacable.

Emphasis On Air

EuVum0Ab VH AhE
 Nazis put all their emphasis on air force operations and spoke only 1 ngeenral terms of army activity.
 Up to this morning the only claims to specific gains had been Q report of advances in the Struma River Valley into Greece and the capture of four bunker forts and Q railroad bridge across the Jugoslav frontier, from Radekrsburg, Austria by @ detachment of engineers and 6 trench mortar in the first few hours of fighting Sunday.
 It was believed here that the Ger man advance from the Radkersbure area meant that the important Jugoslav town of Maribor (Mar. burg) was directly threatened.
 There were indications that the high command would be chary i1 making specific mention of places taken until the Germans had ad- vanced far enough to make such in. formation useless to the Jugoslavs, Greeks and British.
 130 Planes D0wned
 An official news agency commu. nique, issued after the new il hour night news blackout ended ct 6. m. (midnight EST), claimed the de- struction of 130 enemy planes in the first 48 hours of operations and said the German air force contin- ied successful raids on military oh- jectives in Jugoslavia.
 German bombing planes which carried out the fifth attack on Bel- grade observed numerous large fires, the biggest of which was at the cen- tral railroad station, the agency said. It added that the north sec. ton of the station was in ruins. Large new fires were observed in barracks In front of the station, 1t was said, and fires also were seen in other sections of the city where military buildings, barracks and de- fense positions are situated"
 Stuka dive bombing planes bomb- ed and machine gunned the airport at Topola, Jugoslavia, damaging barracks, hangars and IA grounded planes, the agency said.
 Twelve planes were destroyed at an unspecified airport, according to the agency, and one plane was de- stroyed and one was damaged at Palakna airfleld.
 Six parked planes were destroyed by the machine gun fire of low fly. ing NaN planes at Pristina, the agency asserted.
 German planes also bombed rail. road installations at Gradesko, dam aged Q troop train on the zagreb- Brod railroad and brought two troop trains to @ halt in bombing at- tack on Neusatz, 1t was added.
 A British Bristol Blenheim plane which tried to fly into Austria was damaged by anti-aircraft gun fire and made a forced landing, 1t was said, and on unidentified enemy plane was shot down in flames while trying to bomb e railroad near the Jugoslav-Hungarian border.
 The agency said that British bomber fired at workers over an Austrian frontier town and wound ed several with machine gun fire.

about the actor who was called to

turned found his picture at Re-

holds good. II l we're asked what

most in 1910 l would have to say

Hopkins will cost $750,000 and
that is exclusive of the $4,000
paid for the film rights.
Judy Canova. the star, will have
a cast surrounding her as big as
you will find in any of the major
companies pictures-Charles But
terworth and Jerry Colonna will
furnish the comedy with Bob
Crosby, brother of Bing. in the
dramatic lead. Susan Hayward is
being tested for Sis Hopkins
cousin.
Judy's first picture. Scatter
brain" was voted one OF the best
general comedies of the year. Gene
Autry, as you know. was named as
one of the ten best moneymakers,
so Republic, we can truthfully say,
has graduated from the "quickie"
