Armies
 Capture Heights

ALGIERS, Dec. 22.-(AP)- American Fifth Army forces were bolstered by heavy artillery and mortar fire when they captured several new heights, and reached the outskirts of San Vittore on the road to Rome, while the British Eighth Army battled the Germans with tanks and infantry in the streets of Ortona.
 American and French troops along the northern mountainous sector of the Fifth Army fror' reported the attacking of the villages of Acquafondata, five miles east of Filignano, and Car ditto, four miles north of Acqua- fondata after occupying the high power Mt. Casole region, in push westward on Casino.
 The announcement that t1 French forces under General Juin were participating in the Fifth Army's attack in this sector was the first disclosure of the position of the French troops on the front. They have been struggling the past few days for position in a vital mountain pass, and were reported to have taken the south ern half in the assault on San Vittore.
 The Americans were methodi- cally Wiping out numerous Ger man pillboxes built around tn, town, using every house and every possible natural obstacle to slow the allied advance.

IAROA IS RAIDED

PEARL RARBOR, Dec. 22.- (AP)-The rising fury of the air war in the mid-Paclfic Marshall Islands was plainly indicated in the report that Monday the 7th Army Liberator bomber force raided the enemy's new Taroa airbase, and tangled with 30 Jap anese Zeros, downing four and perhaps five others, with the loss of three Liberator bombers.
 Taroa is in Malcelap Atoll which the Army bombers pounc- ed on the previous day, downing seven of the interceptors and damaged five others without loss to themselves.

LONDON, Dec 22.-(AP)- The Russian Baltic army surged forward unchecked for another five miles and now stands only IS miles from the Nazi fortress city of Vitebsk, Reuters reported from Moscow today.
 Encirclement thus became hourly more imminent, that the companion thrust toward the inn portant, rail junction of Polotsk, 50 miles to the west. The stab- ility of the entire German line defending the Baltic states was seriously threatened.
 The communigues earlier re- ported the forces of General Bag amian within 20 miles of Vitebsk from the north, through captured Gribali, and less than 25 miles away to the east. His troops were storming down from Nevel yes terday, blasting their way through "a 50-mile gap deep into the Ger man defenses, capturing over 100 villages and leaving 1,600 Ger mans dead in their wake.
 At the extreme southern end of the 800-mile long battlefront meanwhile Russian armies were liquidating Nazi bridgeheads on the south bank of the Dnieper river opposite Kherson, near the river mouth. Dispatches said "a full scale attack against the city itself was expected momentarily.
