YugosIav Partisans
Penetrate Is Miles
Into Northern |taIy
BY the Associated Press.


LONDON, Dec. 30.-Yugoslav Par
tisans, boldly striking Is miles into
Northern Italy, have destroyed a
German column near Gorizia. on
the railway extending southwark to
the Adriatic port of Trieste, Marshal
Josip Broz CTito) announced today.
The thrust into Italian territory
which the Germans previously had
claimed to have freed of all guer-
rilla opposition came with the an
nouncement of new Partisan VIC
tories in Croatia, in which the
provinces of Baniya and Kordun
were said to have been swept clean
OF German invaders
The victories. which added new
territory to hinterland areas esti-
mated at 41,000 square miles
roughly, third of all Yugo-
slavia-already liberated by Tito's
armies, followed weeks of bitter
fighting.
Mopping Up Enemy.
The communique, broadcast by
the Free Yugoslav radio, gave these
reports from other fighting fronts
The Yugoslavs were battling
strong German formations in East
ern Bosnia, but in the Sanjak bor-
der area they were mopping up
remnants of enemy units.
Tracks of the Priboj-Sarajevo
railway were uprooted near Priboj
interrupting enemy rail traffic on
one of his main supply routes.
Northeast of Sarajevo, Partisans
surprised German detachment be-
tween Prijedor and Bosrnske Novi,
killed 36 enemy troops and captured
large stores of war material
Bitter fighting continued in the
Dlnara Alps in Dalmatia, while
naval units of the Yugoslav Army
sank a 20-ton German food ship
off the Adriatic coast.
Encircling Novo Mesto.
Farther north in Slovenia, Parti-
sans were encircling Novo Mesto
IS miles west of Zagreb. Successive
German counterattacks were re-
pulsed, so NaZi soldiers killed and
two tanks and large amounts of
war equipment captured.
Units of a brigade destroyed a
Bulgarian detachment at Djevdjel-
iii, on the Yugoslav- Greek border
A Bulgarian officer and IS Bulgarian
soldiers with all their equipment
came over to the Partisans.
Reports of the Partisans' recon-
quest of 41,000 square miles of Yu-
goslavia were broadcast by the Mos
COW radio and confirmed by Yugo-
slav sources in London as fairly
accurate" Moscow said that in the
first six months of 1943 the Yugo-
slavs killed more than $4,000 enemy
troops and captured 10000, together
with huge stores of war equipment

Vatutin's forces rapidly expanding
a 42-mile-Wide breach in the Lenin-
grad-Odessa railway from Korosten
south to Chernyakhov, other units
were closing in on Zhitomir from
the north and east and latest front
dispatches placed vanguards beyond
the town of Livkov, miles north
east of that equally important juno
ton on the Western Ukraine rail
network.
Germans DisOrganized.
Nowhere were there any signs
that Marshal Fritz Won Mannstein S
thoroughly eli organized army would
be able to stem the tumultlous
Soviet onruSh short of the Bug
River.
On the southern front, inside the
Dnieper River Bend, Gen. Rodion
Malinovsky's Sd Ukraine Army, In a
new supporting drive, second In i'm
portance only to Gen. Vatutin's Of
fenSlve, struck westward across the
river from Zaporozhe in a emile
advance that completely restored
the great Dnieper Dam to Russian
hands.
Zaporozhe itself, 40 miles south of
Dnepropetrovsk, was captured on
October a. Today's thrust liberated
more than 20 towns, including Khor-
tltsa Island in the Dnieper, opposite
Zaporozhe, dispatches reported
This drive was apparently heading
for Nikopol, chief source of Ger
manys sorely needed manganese, 80
miles southwest.
Between the scenes of these two
major Russian offensives, the Ger
mans pressed stiff attacks north of
Kirovograd in an attempt to keep
open that center of road and rail
communications. They used large
tan kand infantry forces. but their
tactical positions were unfavorable
for anything more than local gains
or delaying action to protect their
withdrawal from that threatened re-
gion.
100 NaZis Killed.
On the third front, far to the
north in White Russia, Gen. Ivan
Bagramians Baltic Army troops con-
tinued their development of Vitebsk.
They killed LOO Germans, liberated
several more towns and repulsed in
cessant counterattackS' to take up
nncitinnS o. cly II
rovnia. nine miles north of the CITY,
In his drive through the Kiev
bulge, Gen. Vatutin was in action
along a ll0-mile arc, and captured
250 towns over 24-hour period. His
troops were reported to have cap
tured the town of Vygov, IL miles
west of Korosten and well beyona
the Zhitomir-Korosten high-water
mark of their earlier drive on Po-
land
Other units striking further south
along the arc were reported by the
communique to have captured Bye
lopole, highway town 13 miles from
the important German-held rail
junction of Berdichev, and Krasov-
ka, miles farther on. Skvira, a
feeder rail terminus SO miles south
west of Kiev, also fell to the advanc-
ing Soviets.
Germans Abandon Equipment.
The Russian communique told OF
fleeing German soldiers abandoning
equipment, Of exceptionally heavy
losses" to the enemy in manpowel
and arms and of scores of tanks
field guns and vehicles being de-
stroyed or captured.
Many prisoners were captured as
the Russians swept everything be-
fore them, the bulletin added. The
Red Army Air Force, unhampered
by bad weather, alone destroyed
more than 20 tanks. 200 trucks and
several German troop and freight
trains.

THREE GROUPS GRADED

Once In while hand comes
along in a duplicate game which
enables you to classify the play
ers into three distinct groups. The
FIRST includes those who think
mainly Of ruffing out losers in
suit contract. The second consists
of those who prefer to drop the
trumps and then attempt to dis
card their losers on side suit.
The third figures out the timing
OF the hand and sees that the
entry situation calls for the side
suit to be set up before the final
round of trumps is played.

Safe Short Cuts
Used in Diagnosis

medlatcly gets worse and more
nervous. Well, anyone can see by
looking at her that she is not de-
:icicn: in thyroid: she is small,
why, nervous, mentally alert.
Something else is the trouble no
matter what the laboratory said.
Then there is the common case
Of the individual who has q con-
tinuous fever OF 99is. There have
been thousands of blood examinz-
tions and everything else without
revealing anything. Well, the fact
is that for lot OF nervous, high
strung people temperature of
49,. is perfectly normal. Treat
the man. not his fever.
Other Suggestions
A patient who has had a gall
bladder operation, and Year
aftcrward has L recurrence of the
same symptoms, doesn't need
wcarlsome N-ray REORGANIZATION
pf his gallbladder. The story is
proof positive that even if his
gallbladder was diseased. that
wasn't the cause OF the trouble.
Food allergy is another condi-
ton which the patient frequently
diagnoses on himself in these days
when the laymen discuss the new
fads in medicine just AS much AS
the doctors. To prove case OF
food allergy, however, takes an
enormous amount OF time with
skin tests aud elimination diets.
Instead OF that. why not have the
patient go without food entirely
for Is hours? Ii this does not re-
lIeve the indigestion. iiatulcncc.
headache. stuify nose. there is lit
tie chance any Kind OF diet will
be found 10 do so. Ii the patient
says he couldn't bear 10 fast Is
hours then his troubles really
don't bother him very much.
