ment for our figure if we would
make a point of taking regular
climbs, two or three times a
week. II is one of the very best

the time.
Try to keep the back firm and
straight. Bend at the waist in
going up. Take good long steps
and let the forward leg, foot,
knee, and hip feel the strain of
pulling the weight of the body
up. The arms will be a great
help when they are extended
and made to pull from the
shoulders.

themselves hill-billies and while

 The Americans are learning how to fly the Spitfires within few days of their arrival at this base and many already have piled up a considerable number of hours in them. Almost without exception they think it is one of the best all- round fighting ships they have flown.

On Southern Sector Red Army Driven Back Under
 Terrific Blows
RUSSIANS HIT NAZIS
 HARD BELOW ROSTOV
Eleven Fresh Divisions of Nazis, l65,OOO Men, Are
 From Holland, France
BY JOE ALEX MORRIS United Press Foreign EditOr)

Three heavily reinforced German armies plunged deeper into the Caucasus today toward Russia's great oil centers and frightened an arc around Stalingrad. On the southern Russian battle front the Red Army fell back under enemy blows of in- creasing intensity along the Don river front and sought, with Stormovik dive -bombers and masses of guns, to prevent the three Ger man armies from gaining more bridgeheads opening the way to the northern Caucasus.
 The Russians announced that Marshal Semyon Timoshenko was forced Monday to yield Rostov, vital railroad city at the mouth of the Don. and Novocherkassk, 32 miles northeastward along the river, to superior German forces after say age fighting. The Germans claimed the capture of Rostov Friday and Novocherkassk on Saturday. but the wording of the Soviet communique branded these Nazi claims as hay ing been premature.
 The Russians said the Germans had thrown II fresh divisions from Holland and France-about 165000 men-into the Don offensive in an effort to smash on southward from captured Rostov and Novocherkassk.
 Fighting was bitter around Tsim- lyanskaya, about midway between Rostov and Stalingrad. where the Germans were said to be suffering heavy losses in their effort to force more crossings of the Don.
 British military quarters said that the Germans appeared to have been slowed down somewhat yesterday, particularly in the Tsimlyanskaya sector of the bridgeheads, but that the Germans continued to cross the Don and appeared to have estab- nshed from two to four bridgeheadS at Rostov.

 New Delhi, July 28-(UP)-Amer- lean pilots today told how a COW saved a plane of the American ferry command from a crack-up and the first casualties on the India China run.
 A binding dust storm over India's vast plains had choked both motors of the plane and forced Lieutenant 0. K. Spurrier of Houston, Tex, to make . crash landing. As the plane skinned along just above the ground, the undercarriage clipped the back of the stray COW and bounced the plane over a little hill which the pilot hadn't seen because of the dust. If 1t hadn't been for the COW, Spurrier said. the plane would have smashed head-on into the hill.
