 DEATH IN FILM FIRE

BadOgliO's
 Grip Fast
 Say Reports
By Associated Press

CHIASHO, on the Swiss-Italian frontier Marshal Badoglio tight ened his military dictatorship on Italy this week, apparently leading his countrymen farther from the possibility of peace.
 Vague rumors floated in London and Bern that peace proposals were being considered but they lacked any confirmation The rumors ap- parently stemmed from an Italian cabinet meeting and diplomatic activity at the Vatican.
 There were some signs of unrest in the country, but for the most rart Badoglio appeared to have a tight grip on the Italian people.
 With the fall of Catania it ap- peared only a matter of days be- fore Sicily would be in Allied hands and it was not known what effect this would have on the Ital- ian people.

Munda Falls To
 Gallant LeatherneCkS
 After S8Days Of Battle
By Associated Press

After 3S days Of some of the most bitter and bloody fighting of the war. General Douglas Macarthur today announced the capture of Munda, which the Japs have always referred to as their key base in the SOlomons. Capture of the base by American Marines and Australian troops, under General Yandergrift has meant days and weeks of tortu- ous gains, measured in yards and inches through the South Pacific jungles, by never-say-die American Marines.
 Gallant capture of the Japanese main airbase on New Georgia Is land was forecast yesterday when Gen. MacArthur's noon communique said that one-half of the airfield was in American hands and was be- ing destroyed
 Paced by tanks, the infantry ad- vanced in all sectors. Japanese cas- ualties were placed at 1871 actual ly counted as dead after the base Was finally in Allied hands.
 Capture of the strategic field puts United States air forces with in fighter plane range of Rabaul, New Britain, only 45O miles away.
 At the other end of the 75O mile battle front, on northeastern New Guinea where the Americans and Australians are moving against Salamaua, Japanese counter attacks were repulsed in heavy fighting. Advanced units of the Allies are within five miles of that objective
 Capture Of Munda clears the laps from New Georgia Island except at Hairoko Harbor, 10 miles northwest and isolated groups in the hills, positions which can only spell death to the Japs holding them as with the Americans now in control of the island, achievements for them would be out of the question.
 American infantry, supported by tanks yesterday advanced slowly on two sides of the Munda base, closing a trap which cut off all chance of escape by the enemy.

He expects to return to the Army service again in the fall.

HOSPITAL PLANE SAVES
 SIX D0WNED AIRMEN By WILLIAM W0RDEN

ADAK-Six American fliers are still congratulating themselves on rare extra lease on life obtained recently after Kiska's guns had riddled a Mitchell bomber, forcing them down into the frigid water less than two miles from the enemy occupied shore.
 Given a virtual death sentence by the antiaircraft fire during a mass raid on Kiska, their planes motor began smoking, then quit. They nosed into the sea so easily none of the six was seriously injured
 All, however, were facing death in water in which man ordinarily can live less than half an hour so cold it is. The water has claimed probably as many lives as Kiskas guns.
 The NaVy's Catalina boat flying hospital, piloted by Lieutenant Jesse Jolliy of Turlock, California, was cruising at the moment just outside of range of the shore guns when it saw the Mitchell in trou- ble. The Catalina went in immed- lately, alighting in the water be- side the struggling crewmen. The hospital boats crew and doctor pulled First Lieutenant Everett Genricks of Chicago and his entire crew of the Mitchell a. board the flying boat and they are glad today to be back. dry. safe an<f unharmaA

8th Army
 Moves On
 AfterCatania
By Associated Press

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS, North Africa-As veteran British infantry mopped up machine gun nests and snipers at Catania, armored scouts cruised 10 miles northwest along the vital road circling Mount Etna and occupied Misterbianco and Pa terno. .aa
 Another Eighth Army column headed due north along the coast toward Messina, some 55 miles dis tant, with Acireal, nine miles from Catania, the immediate prize. The rocky and rugged eastern face of Mount Etna was, mi1ltarily a lost cause to the Hermann Goering diyi- sion of the German army. Their next determined stand, however, be- fore ultimate defeat and flight from the island, might be made for a time at Taormina, midway from Catania to Messina.
 On the shores of the Tyrrhenian sea Americans, supported by crack gunners of the U. s. cruisers and destroyers, advanced on San Fratel- To, some 50 miles west of Messina. The north coast road, like the east coast road is virtually at the mer- cy of Allied Naval forces, strangling the power of the enemy to long continue the fight.
 Gerbinis, big air base and. net work of nine satellite fields 12 miles west of captured Catania were disclosed last night to be com pletely available for Allied air use.

 The majority of the defenders who had covered the road to the city from pillboxes, fled during the night.
 The surrender was handed to the colonel who led the first infantry units into the town as frenzied civ ilians ran alongside the cars cheer ing, clapping hands and reaching through the car windows to pull at the soldiers hands and kiss them.
