NAYS DRIVEN BACK THROUGH
 TUSCAN HILLS

Rome, July 29. - (UP) - The British Army drove the Germans back through the Tuscan hills to within five miles of Florence today and steadily frightened an assault arc on the historic cultural center while the American siege of Pisa begged down to a temporary stalemate.
 The entire German line on the Florence front sagged under the weight of a conyerging British drive which overran half a dozen of the central Italian city's outposts. All the ground south of the Arno and Pesa rivers was being cleared, and the Allies were in position for a frontal attack on the main Ger man positions in the Gothic Line
 Polish troops pushing up the Adriatic coast captured the south- ern part of the fishing port oi Senigallia at the mouth of the Misa river 1T miles northwest of Ancona'
 Hardest Fighting
 The hardest fighting in Italy was on the approaches to Florence where the Allies were pressing the Germans northward from their last hill line before the city. A furious battle was going on five miles south west of Florence, where high ground overlooking the city already was in Allied hands,
 New Zealand units of the Eighth Army struck forward more than two miles from their bridgehead across the Pesa River and broke through one of the main parts of the German defense line to seize footing in the hills looking down on Florence, which the Germans had declared an open city and pre- sumably would abandon when its outlying defenses were overrup.
 The Eighth Army drove with 2 i-2 miles of Montelupo, on the Ano Ri- yer II miles west and slightly south of Florence, and within two miles of Empoli, five miles farther west, with little resistance at some points.
 They took Rotjnaccio, three miles south of Montelupo, and 6eogpano a mile to the southeast.
 Counter Attack
 When the New ZealandeFs wedg- cd into the German line beyond cerbaia, hub Of secondary roads eight miles southwest of Florence, the Germans eounteFSattaeked yio.

Il U.S.TANKS CAPTURE C0UTANCES Russians Reach Outskirts Of Warsaw
DEFENSESOF POLECAP|TAL
 ARE STORMED
BY HENRY SHAPIRO United Press Staff Correspondent

AhGkNHkA OuhEAMO
 United Press Staff Correspondent
 Moscow, July 29. - (UP) Soviet tanks and cavalry reached the southeastern outskirts of Warsaw and were stOrming the defenses of the Polish capital today after a 25-miIe dash up the east bank of the VistuIa river.
 "A London Daily Express dispatch from Stockholm quoted a German spokesman that the German army twill make no stand east of War Saw".)
 Front reports said German resistance southeast of War saw had evaporated as never before on the eastern front as Marshal Konstantin K. RokoSsOvsky hurled his powerful First Russian Army against the capital on a 20- mile arc curving from the east bank of the Vistula to the northeast.
 While one column speared through to the southeastern outskirts, an- other drove to within a few miles of the Minsk Mag railway station, Is miles east of Warsaw on the railway from EiedIce.
 Hokossoysky appeared to be con. centFating the entire strength of his assault on Warsaw along the east bank of the Vistula and re. ports published abroad that his forces had crossed the river in amphibi0us trucks have proved without foundation.
 His immediate objective presunl- ably was the east bank suburb of Praga, controlling all railways runs ming into Warsaw from the east. Two bridges span the VistuIa from Praga to WaFsaw proper on the west bank.
 The fall of the by-passed strong- hold of Brest Litoysk. II5 miles east of Warsaw. to clements of Rokos. sovsky's army yesterday released huge additional forces for the as- sault on the capital and It's early capture was anticipated,
 Tbirty-fouF generals were com. mended by Premier Marshal Josef Etalin in an order of the day for their part in the seizure Of Brest Ltt0vsk,

 Supreme Headquarters, AEF, July 29. - (UP) - A powerful American tank column captured COutances and drove on nearly eight miles to the south today i'm a breakthrOugh to the west coast of the Norman penin- suIa that trapped thOus- ands of Germans against the sea.
 Employing the famous IeapfrOg tactics used and perfected by It. Gen. George s. (BlOOd and Guts) Patton, IT,, in Sicily, the west coast armOred column and at least three others inland swept across the Sienne and SOulle rivers - previously men, tiOned as possibly enemy defense lines - and engulfed or by.passed scores of towns and villages in what was de- veIOping into one of the greatest American victories of the war.
 (The reference to the tac- tics used by Patton recalled recent German claims that Patton has taken a com mand in Normandy
 Though the early stages of their retreat were chaotic. the Germans now appeared to be conducting an orderly withdrawal along the entire western half of the front so rapidly that indications were they may not halt for a stand short of Avranches, at the hinge of the Normandy and Brittany peninsulas 25 miles south of coutances.
 The 0erman-contr0lled Seandi- nayian Telegraph bureau said the Americans were attacking with 10 to l2 tank diyisiOns-an estimated 2.600 tanks-in an offensive appaTS entIy designed to smash into the heart of France iT an attempt t0 split the German armies in two and clear the southern Hank for q drive on Paris,
 STE also reported that the Amer, lean and German armies were eD- gagged in "glgaDtie tank battle' between the west coast Of NOr- mandy and the Wire river south Of St. L0, but American field diss patches said the advance was pleets Ing only sporadic resistance,
