MOSCOW The Russian drive to regain Stalingrad was furthered to- day slowly but surely as the Red Army announced the capture of sev- eral buildings in the central part of the city and also were in control of the Nazis' escape corridor west of the city. They said the German lines there had been broken, be- tween the Volga and the Don and that they had the Germans encir- cled. 'The attack is being success fully continued" the Russian com munique said.
 Along the central front, the Rus sians were advancing near Velikie Lukie, over frozen swamps and had tnveloped 13 villages. West oi Rzhef, key city of Nazi defenses

New Clashes
 Reported On
 African Front
lBY Associated .Press

Though unfay0rable weather had slowed up general operations on the African front the past two days, new ground action broke out today northeast of Tunis in Tunisia when American tank and infantry forces countered two columns of German tanks advancing in an effort to break the Allied supply line. After furious fighting in which a large number of the enemy tanks were destroyed. the Nazls were driven back, according to an Army com munique from Gen. Eisenhower s headquarters.
 American and Allied troops were reported advancing on all the Afri- can fronts while the Germans were attempting to bring up reinforce ments, towing some across the Med iterranean from Sicily in gliders and dropping them in an effort to counter the American paratroops who were adding additional air ports to the Allied cause.
 Indications were that Hitler was draining his Russian front of plane in a final effort to gain air super iority in Che African theater of op- eratiOns. Meanwhile, the Reds are giving the Germans no respite and continued to drive the invader back along the entire front, pushing it's winter offensive at a huge cost to the Nazis in men and equipment.
 The RAF, having laid Turin, It. ally in ruins Wednesday and Thurs day nights, supported by American air forces continued devastating raids on Italian industrial cities and on French towns.
 For the first time in weeks, the big guns boomed across the English Channel today for more than an hour The Germans opened up from the French coast, the British retail iating with heavy smelling of the French sea coast positions.
 French colonials, who have joined the Allied forces in the Tunisia bat tie, blew up an Axis troop train to- day, it was reported. Several hui1d- red German soldiers were killed and those not killed in the wreck were machine gunned by the Frenehmen who had hidden in the vicinity. It was reported Is prisoners were ta- ken.
