her husband, Carter r. Bryan, now

was Vienna correspondent for the

vacation tour through Italy when
they met Signor Grandi, his wife
and two children, in the theater.

You have been plagued and op-

said "Mussolini has fallen and
Fascism is falling. Now the Ger

Stockholm newspapers quoted the
German newspaper Neueste Mach

collapse would affect the outcome of
the war and as revealing that Nazi
leaders fear the same thing may
happen in Germany.

the impression grew that Italy, for
all practical purposes, already is
out of the war, and an unofficial
spokesman at Allied headquarters
in North Africa said that only con-

forces is delaying formal cessation
of hostilities.

Signor Grandi was strictly off the
record, but that in the light of re-
cent events she now feels at liberty
to repeat his remarks.
At that time, she added, he had
returned to Italy from London,
where he had been italian Ambas-
sador to the Court of st. James. and
his pro-English feelings were quite
evident. She said that he, as we'll
as his two children, spoke perfect
English.
We had explored the corridors
and platforms of the theater," Mrs
Bryan said, "and had sat down to
enjoy the view of the town when a
dark bearded gentleman, his wife
and two children passed into the
theater.
Il made a l0-lira bet with my
husband that the gentleman was
Signor Grandi. On overhearing my
remark he spoke up, saying, The
lady wins her bet We then intro
duced ourselves"
When Signor Grandi heard the
Bryans were from Germany he be-
gan questioning them about condi-
tions there, and it was during this
conversation that he made his re-
mark about Italy's policy.

Bloody Ridge Ranks
Among Epic Battles
OF 5iciIian Campaign
BY THOMAS r. HENRY,

WITH THE UNITED STATES
INFANTRY ON BLOODY RIDGE.
SICILY, July 80 Delayed On this
mountain side overlooking the Med
iterranean and named by the men
SIS Bloody Ridge" an American in
fantry regiment fought one of the
epic battles of the Sicilian cam
paign over some of the toughest
terrain United States troops ever
encountered.
This shell-scorched fortress held
by the Germans entranched with
machine guns in protecting draws
and ravines was stormed and taken
yesterday in binding heat.
Twice the day before American
troops were beaten back by heavy
fire from the Nazi defenders, but
the third time up they took and
held 1t through fierce counterat-
tack during which four American
machine gunners. one whose arm
was blown off, died at their flaming
guns
Off1cers compare the battle to the
CAPTURE of Hill 500 in Tunisia whose
fall paved the wav to the capture of
Mateur in the closing days of that
campaign.
Four Compa nies Reach Summit.
Four United States infantry COM
panies participated in the fight and
reached the summit, where garden
Of olives was growing. There were
many feats of individual heroism.
whitening artillery fire finally made
the higher slopes untenable.
Sergt. Paul Villegas of Denver
Colo, was one of these heroes. He
killed six Germans singlehanded
after his buddy had been shot by
sniper He spotted two Germans
IN machine gun nest, and got them
with rifle fire. Then when the
gun OF comrade jammed, Sergt.
Villeeas handed him his own rifle
and dashed unarmed to the nest
where he grabbed a German ma
chine pistol and killed four others.
I'm going to kill 20 Germans for
each of my buddies shot, he de-
clared.
Equally notable was the feat of
Sergt. Herbert Fish of Canon City.
Colo, who singlehanded killed eight
Germans. 1t all started when a
German rifle bullet went through
the top of his helmet. He fell
stunned from the blow but unharm-
ed. A sniper hiding behind rock
came out laughing and beckoned to
his comrades to come out and see
the American he had killed.
Gets 8 Nazis With 8 Bullets.
Sergt. Fish lay motionless but
alert, and when the men were in
favorable position, he gave them
all eight bullets in his rifle, getting
German with each shot.
Curious experience was that of
Sergt. Russell Glad of Stratton,
Colo. who. after his gun jammed,
got four out of 10 Germans with
a single shot of rife grenade.
The Germans lost spirit when
captured. One American soldier
taking prisoner down a slope
slipped and dropped his gun. The
German helped him to his feet and
handed the Yankee his gun.
The wounded were carried down
the perilous slopes on the shoulders
OF their companions, while the only
way water and ammunition were
brought to the men was by human
carrier or mules. The ridge was
enough to break the heart of
mountain goat.
