(By Associated Press)

Russian Red Army forces have penetrated the outer Qualifications of Novorossisk, dispatches from the front said and a 'persistently crumbling of the enemy defenses is breaking the depth of his po- sitions"
 This Soviet advance in, the Ku- bon sector coincided with the fierce fighting in the air which the Rus sians said has resulted in the de- struction of 930 German planes during the past seven days.
 Resurgence activity in the Lisi- chasnsk area of the Donets basin, linked with the smashing Russian raids on German communications behind the Ukrainian front, is ap- parently part of well conceived plan to smash the Nazi prepara- tions for a summer offensive.
 The German communique today suggested the Russian landings on top of the Caucasus bridgehead was miscalculated as large number of the force were destroyed by an artillery barrage.
