AMERICAN PLANES HAMMER CORRIDOR
Allies Halt TwO-Column German Drive in NOrth-
 eastern Tunisia
By PHIL AULT

United Press Staff C0rresp0ndent)
 Allied Headquarters, North Africa, Jan. 23.-(UP)-Allied troops have halted 6 two-column German drive in northeastern Tunisia and Ameri- can planes continued to hammer the corridor through which the routed Afrika Korps must flee from Trip oli, it was disclosed today.
 The northern column of the twin German advance was driven back four miles to 8 point six miles north of Robaa 9 miles southeast of Pont du Fans, by the combined efforts of American and French troops.
 There were indications that the Germans planned to abandon this thrust and concentrate on their other spearhead moving toward Os- seltia, 25 miles south of Pont du Fans. The Axis tank and Infantry columns, however, had been stopped at least temporarily on that salient also.
 French headquarters announced that French and British troops had driven back the Germans several kilometers in the Wadi Kebir, which runs through the mountains south west of Pont du Fans.
 American aircraft supported the ground fighting with blistering at Jacks throughout northeastern Tun- isia, an Allied communique reported.
 Heavy and medium bombers made three strong attacks within three and-a-half hours yesterday on the main airdrome at Tunis, inflicting heavy damage on buildings and parked airdromes.

Scovill's s Planning
 New Casting Shop
New Building Between East Main and Mill Streets Considered Under Expansion Program to Gen.
 traIize All Employment Branches

The Scovill Mfg. O., largest of the Big Three" of local industry is planning construction of huge Thew casting shop as part of a furth- CT expansion fsregfA1rf; The Demo- crat learned today. Official an- nouncement of the plans for the new production unit and for other additions to the Scovill facilities can be expected soon. In addition to the casting shop, company heads are considering con- struction of a new building between East Main and Mill streets which would centralize all employment branches. This would leave the present employment office site at Union and Mill streets available for new construction or for enlarge ment of the parking lot which now adjoins 1t.
 Furthermore, remodelling of the company's recreation hall on Doolit- tie alley, plans for which the conl- pany has already announced to enl- ployes, Is ready to start. The total cost will be $25, 900 or more.
 The new casting shop will be built, unless some late hitch devel- ops, on property between Hamilton avenue and Silver street. The com- pany owns all the property in ques- ton, with the exception of two hous- es and lots on the Silver street side.
 Company officials could not be reached today for comment, but The Democrats information came from highly authoritative source.
 The new casting shop would serve as second feeder" to the big mill located along Silver street. It would send brass castings into the mill from the south side, while the pres- ent casting shop would send them in from the south side.
 The Democrats source said that priorities on the materials necessary for the construction of the new cast ing shop are eitheir assured or are almost so. There is no such defin- ite assurance, it was said, of the ma terials needed for the new central employment office.
 The plans for the casting shop, 1t was stated, involve a very large con- Struction cost.
 The Scovill co. had its biggest pe- riod of expansion during World War I, when 1t erected numerous huild- ings which now serve as centers for the production of war goods. It has erected several new buildings since the start of the present war,
 The new building between East Main and Mill streets would make possible the consolidation of all enl- ployment service and employe well fare activities. At present, appli- cants for jobs at Scovill's are carried several times by car or station wa- gon from the Union street employ ment office to the hospital on East Main street, and, sometimes. to other factory points. M
 The new structure would be built in the rear of the Scovill Foremen's association building on East Main street, adjoining the company hos pital, and would connect with the Mill street building. adjoining the main offices, which has recently been converted to use as a supple mental office building.

AFR|KA KORPS
 QUIT AFRICA
Allies Plan to Trap Ragged ShredS of Unit and COnl-
 pletely Destroy It
By WILLIAM B. DICKINSON United Press Staff Correspondent

London, Jan. 23.-(UP)-Remain- ing Axis forces on the continent of Africa were pressed today between two great Allied armies now only 300 miles apart as the triumphant British Eighth Army swarmed through Tripol, the largest and richest city of the Italian empire, and rushed on beyond, intent upon trapping the remainder of the beat en Afrika Korps.
 A terrific battle was believed to be raging between encircled Axis forces presumably west of Tripoli on the road to Tunisia, and advanced ele- ments of the Eighth Army. The Nazi Radio Paris acknowledged that this battle was underway, admitted that the German forces had been encir- cled, but claimed that the British attempt to trap them had been frustrated"
 Allied dispatches had indicated an American, British and French plan to trap the ragged shreds of the Af- rika Korps as it quit the last Italian soil in Africa, and completely de- stroy it in southeastern Tunisia.
 Brig. Gen. Jacques LeClerc's Fighting French forces from the Lake Chad region were reported to have turned toward Tunisia and the Mareth line, along the border, where Marshal Erwin Rommel was believed to be hoping to hole up for while and give his Afrika Korps 8 breath ing spell.
 A dispatch from Q United Press staff correspondent In southern Tu- nisia had hinted that American and infantry, along with French forces, might soon stab to the coast, cutting the Afrika Korps off in narrow, desolate corridor.
 Three months to a day from the start of his smashing offensive at Fl Alamein, more than 1900 miles to the east, Lieut.. Gen. Bernard l.. Montgomery's ert-hardened em- pire troops were swinging down the narrow, twisted streets of Tripoli. and under the marble triumphal arch that the Caesars built.
 A column that had bypassed TripoN moved ahead on zura, 70 miles west of Tripoli, along & road that was a graveyard of Axis tanks,

 A score of homes in the Highland section of winthrop had windows smashed, dishes jared from the shelves and plaster loosened when the big guns went of. Many per sons on the south shore thought It was an earthquake.
 Greatest damage was to windows. A contriblitory factor was that heavy storm windows prevented many persons from opening their windows to equallxe the pressure.

Russians Take Salsk, Make Fresh Gains On Other Major Fronts
Parking Meter Case Assignment Nears
Hearing in State Supreme Court of Errors May Be Designated Wednesday; Several Other Local Cases Appear on Appeal List

Waterbury's parking meter appeal case will be assigned for a hearing in the state supreme court of errors in Hartford when monthly assign ments are made next Wednesday, according to the February docket released today. Attorney John H. Cassidy, who waged the successful battle against the meters, said today all necessary briefs have been print ed and he believes the case will probably be assigned for the first or second week in February. Several other local cases are listed on the February appeal list.
 The parking meter case decision, which was handed down Sept. 4 by Common Pleas Court Judge Thomas Wall, declared the meters to be illegal. Damages of $100 were awarded to the local lawyer and an injunction was issued restraining the city from operating the meters on property of MT. Cassidy on West Main and on Leavenworth streets The execution of the injunction was held Up pending the appeal to the 
 high court.
 The case has added interest now because of the pending legislation at the current General Assembly session, one bill seeking to legalize the meters. It is believed such leg islation would not have effect on the Cassidy case, as it would not be retroactive.
 One other local case has been printed and is ready for trial, that of Charles Laffin of Hartford against Nicholas Apalucci, Thomas eLuciarl, and Doinenic Sacco. all of Water bury. The plaintiff seeks to re- cover as the result of personal in- juries sustained.
 Nov. 25, 1941 when he allegedly was struck by bartender. Domenic Sacco, at the Legion Grill on North Main street, owned by the other de- fendants. A common pleas court jury Oct. 10, 1941 returned a $2,250 verdict for the plaintiff but the sue preme court on hearing an appeal taken by the defendant found an er- TOT and returned the case for a
