RUSSIA:
Ndzis Fall Back

Hitler's armies fell back along
the central and southern Russian
fronts as the Reds masses of
tanks and troops ground forward
in bitter action. The Germans put
up stiff resistance, slowing the
Russians advance with local coun-
terattacks, and making them pay
for every yard gained.
But the sheer weight of the
Reds drive told in the eventual
German retreats. In the central
sector, the Russians bore down on
the important Nazi base Of Bry-
ansk, as they moved westward
from recently fallen Orel. Farther
70 the south, Kharkov lay en-
cirled from three sides, and Soviet
troops stood at the gates Of the
once great Pittsburgh Of Russia,
now a blackened ruin.

Tips on Keeping Cool: Act
ing cool and thinking cool
actually works a magic in
making you cool. It's import
ant to plan your day ahead
so that it runs smoothly and
so there will be a minimum
of confusion - for that al
ways makes weather hotter.
Dress cool, eat cool. Dress
sensibly, keeping plenty of
clean summer clothes on
hand = things that can be
done up with soap and water
in hurry and need little
ironing. Crispy salads-even
in the imagination-cool you
off, and of course, frosty
drinks.
Do your hot kitchen work in
the cool morning hours. Make
whatever preparations you
can on the food front and
store in the refrigerator,
ready to pull out for dinner
with minimum of rush and
hurry. Keep things simple,
and you'll keep cool.

Microbes That Save
Soldiers Lives
By J. ID. Ratcliff
ifl1IIlNIIIIdIIG
(WNU Feature-Through special arrange

(WNU Feature-Through special arrange
ment with Golfers Weekly
Most of us think of microbes in
terms of sudden death. But there
are good microbes, too. We couldn't
live without them. If we didn't
have microbes to eat dead vegeta
ton it would pile up and choke all
life. Microbes give us cheese, but
termilk, sauerkraut, pickles, olives.
They capture atmospheric nitrogen
to enrich the soil and do us thou
sand good turns.
Industry is beginning to see tre-
mendous possibilities in microbes
in the yeasts, molds and bac-
terra. These little creatures arc
magnified chemists. They can do
jobs which stump the brightest
men. They can turn wood into
sugar, and sugar into fat. They
can convert stuff like corn sugar
into resins, gums and vitamins.
These facts account for the
quickening interest in the new
science of industrial microbiology.
And it also accounts for the fact
that in the past year or so, this
country has built up one of the
worlds best microbe zoos-so the
creatures will be on hand when
iobs are found for them.
Microbe Zoo
This zoo is in Peoria, Ill.,-in the
department Of agriculture's north
ern regional research laboratory.
The zoo contains 1000 molds, 1000
yeasts, and 500 varieties of bac-
terra. The creatures in this zoo
are kept in test tubes and flasks
instead of cages. Some live in
refrigerator rooms, others in clos
cts or inCubators.
The hero of the laboratory at
the moment is a mold called
Penicillium nOtatum. This mold
makes the drug pencillin, which
is the most potent weapon
against death ever discovered.
The new drug, not yet on the
market, was discovered by acci-
dent by a British research man
AIMED Alexander Fleming. He
was growing disease-causing
bacteria in his laboratory when
he noted that a mold had con-
taminated the plates. More i'm
pOrtant. he noted that some
thing given off by the mold was
killing the bacteria. He started
searching for the cause of this
bacteria death-and found peni-
cillin.
British doctors found this drug
would do almost everything the
sulfa drug would do and a great
deal besides. 1t was the most po-
tent weapon ever found against in
fection. Penicillin cleared up hor-
rid bone infections and did other
jobs. 1t literally snatched people
back from sure death.
Yet there was a catch to all this
magnificent life-saving. The mold
that produced the drug was inordi-
nately difficult to grow. And it
yielded only minute quantities of
the drug. Since large quantities
of penicillin were desperately
needed to treat war wounded BrI-
tish research men turned to Amer
lea. Would the Peoria laboratory
see what it could do toward finding
molds to produce large quantities
of the drug? The job was handed
to long-faced, pipe-smoking DR.,
Andrew Meyer.

 London, Nov. 16-"When the Allies land in France, they will find a Woman's Legion waiting to give them every assistance in beating the common enemy. This Woman's Legion runs into hundreds of thou sands-they are the wives, moth- CTS, sisters, sweethearts of the es- timated one million and half men held captive in Germany ever since 1940 or deported to work for the Axis"
 This is what Madame X," the wife of a well-known young Com munist Deputy, who recently escaped to rejoin her husband in England, told me when I saw her at French Headquarters. She preferred to re- main anonymous because her fam lily is still in France.
 "You must realize" she went on, "that after more than three years of enemy occupation, every woman to- day is @ 'resistante' Ca 'resister0. Some are more active than others. The most intrepid and fearless are the women whose men have been taken from them.
 Many have been fighting and out witting the Germans right from the beginning. Some have been im- prisoned, tortured and even faced firing squads. But throughout the country these lonely women, repre- Senting every section of the com- munity, have been drawn together by a spirit of comradeship, helpfullness and sympathy"
 WANT THEIR MEN BACK
 Frenchwomen today are inspired by an overwhelming hatred of the invader on the one hand and, on the other, of the Vichy Government and its satellites. Their only desire is to see their country liberated and their men returned to them.
 Resistance" for Frenchwomen, means organizing housewives to protest against Black Marketeers who prefer to sell their goods at a big profit, regardless of the fact that in so doing they deprive their comcatriots of their legal rations. These even at best are often prob lematical.
 Resistance" means distributing and helping in the makeup of clandestine newspapers, acting as liaison agents between men who have been forced "undergerground" and their families and unions.
 Resistance" also means organ iZing sabotage (bv men as well as women inside industrial plants.
