NAzIS ARE 5TIFFENING
 IN RUSSIA

MOSCOW, Dec. 22.-Gerinan re- sistance, marked with increasing counter-attacks, stiffened against the Red Army in it's middle Don River drive in which the Russians are reported to have captured a large town in their smash toward the southwest toward Rostov, Black Sea port.
 The midday communique didn't name the town which was taken but said it was the next largest populated place" in the path of the Russians.
 Millerovo, important railroad junc- tion 12O miles from Rostov, may have been the city.
 The Germans are rushing reserves to the middle Don front in an at- tempt to halt the swift pace. Col. vatutins legions stormed to within 20 miles of Millerovo yesterday.
 The front southwest of Stalingrad also is boiling anew as German arm- ies bolster their reserves with large tank units, bringing heavier pressure to bear against the Russian thrust down along the Kalmyck Steppe. Increasing Nazi resistance was fore seen here, once the Axis troops found a place where they could stand and fight.

CANADIAN
 AIRLINER
 I5 MISSING
Graft Bound from Prince George 10 Vancouver
 Lost with B Aboard

VANCOUVER, B. C., Dec. 22.-- Keen-eyed pilots, hampered by the weather, yesterday criss- s-crossed the rugged coastal area, 80 miles wide and 50 miles deep, searching for a Canadian Pacific airliner missing with thirteen persons aboard
 Eight planes took part in the hunt,
 Only One Clue
 The only clue was the fact that the missing aircraft made a routine request for landing instructions as it scared over peaks of the Cascade Mountains at an altitude of l4,000 feet Sunday night, near the end of three-hour flight from Prince George.
 Silence greeted the CPA control tower at the Vancouver airport when it called back to give instruc- tions.
 Capt. Ernest Kubicek was pilot and Capt. Bill Holland was co-pilot of the missing plane. Both Kubicek and Holland are well known in the Northland. Holland had just com pleted two years in the service of the Royal Air Force Ferry Com mand. Kubicek was formerly a flier with the White Pass.
 Those Missing
 Others aboard the missing plane are reported to be as follows:
 Stewardess Edna Young of Ed monton.
 A. E. Smith, of Strawberry Hill B. c.
 N. Staurt, of Vancouver. l A. Schroeder of Milwaukee
 Capt. Ker, of Seattle.
 Mrs. E. Heron, address unknown
 Mrs. B. Stouse, of Pinchilake, B lC.
 w. M. Scharfe and Reg. Battye ] both of Vancouver.
 Two others, names not given.
 Later reports are that the plane was heard to be in difficulties in the Slave Lake area, 35 miles east of Vancouver, one hour after the liner was due at the Vancouver airport.

 It said the landing was made in heavy seas and the commandos have just returned to their base from the daring foray at the core of the Nazis' last stronghold in North Africa.
 The news of the raid came with the news that Rommel's army is reported only 100 miles from Trip oli, apparently planning to continue all the way west to Tunisia to join with other German forces battling the Allies there.
 The commandos had to swim for it," their commander reported, but losses were light because the land ing was unopposed The invasion lasted for several days. he said, and the raiders had to take away a beach position from the enemy, bat tling along IS miles which the Ger mans held with strong machine gun posts.
 We found this out when we bumped into them the command CT related. We were under heavy fire from these guns but also suc- ceeded in killing a number of Ger mans. They showed no inclination to come out even when they shot us up.'
