ITALY:
At Nazis' Rear

With their supply lines leading to
Casino under fire of the Fifth army
advancing inland from their invasion
beachheads below Rome, the Ger
mans launched a series of counter
attacks in the new battle region
while their 1ong-range artillery
sought to break up Allied troop con-
centrations.
Near Casino U. S. and French
forces moved through rugged Nazi
Notifications to ring that key to the
broad highway to Rome on two sides,
while farther to the south, British
units battered against the right flank
of the enemy defense line.
BY surging inland after their land
ings on the sandy beaches below
Rome, the Fifth army threatened to
cut off an estimated 100, 900 German
troops in the Casino area, some of
whom were being withdrawn back
to counter the new Allied thrust. AS
the Germans moved back to meet
the threat, Allied bombers roared
in to machine-gun the columns.
