initiative from the Germans
along the long -stalemated and
water-logged front in that sec

nounced today.
The announcement confirmed at
least in part German broadcasts
that the Allies had made an amphi-

and had established a bridgehead.

admitted, had gained a height

but it apparently was aimed at juno

Rome over the Pontine Marshes

been known as the Appian Way.

the Allies had been prevented from
reaching the Appian Way and that
the fighting had been localized on
the beaches, with heavy casualties
for the landing forces. The key city

The attack by the Allies coun-
tered heavy tWo-day offensive by
the German 10th Army in the
Garigliano sector aimed at the town
of Ponte Fiume at the mouth of
the river.
Headquarters gave no additional
information about the drive of
American troops to take San Wit

valley leading to Casino Bitter
fighting has been raging there and
the town has been reduced to rubble
by Allied artillery, advices from the
front said, but the Germans we're
dug into wine cellars underlying
the town, where it was difficult to
reach them with artillery fire.
The Italian Bari radio said today
the 5th Army had captured San

recorded in New York by the Owl,
said the village was captured after
stubborn German defense. The
Bari radio is controlled by the
