REPULSE NAZIS AT STALINGRAD
Russians Report Continued Block-by-Block Effort
To Destroy City. (Continued from Page One)
Moscow, although enemy resistance ~ steadily stiffened. : (The British Broadcasting Corp. . said that heavy Soviet artillery had been moved into the hills surrounding: Rzhev ani was pounding the . "last remnants of the city” to soften it up for final capture.) Dispatches to Red Star said 13 inhabited points had been captured on one sector. “Thousands” of the enemy killed and an important lateral road linking two German strongholds cut off. Having rushed up fresh infantry and tank reinforcements in an effort to keep Rzhev, key point of the Rzhev - Gzhatsk = Vyazma salient, from falling into Russian hands, the Germans were counter-attacking on several sectors. Poles Eager to Surrender - But they had not at any place been "able to force the Russians from their reconquered positions. The Russians repelled the counterattacks, consolidated the positions and moved on to better ones. They were taking a heavy toll of enemy machines and men on all sectors of the new offensive front, and taking many prisoners. Many of the prisoners were Poles, whom the Germans had impounded into the army. Now; at the first opportunity, ' they - surrendered - in groups, with -all their arms. ‘There was no cenfirmation here of German and Swedish reports that -a new counter-offensive had been begun around Lake Ladoga in an attempt to break the land seige of Schluesselburg, 25 miles east of Leningrad. On the north Caucasian front near Prokhladnenski, 75 miles northwest of Grozny oil fields, Soviet troops destroyed three German tanks and two companies of infantry.
The Russians put up fierce re- ;
sistence on the north Caucasus fronts south of Krasnodar, near the Black sea naval base of Novorossisk, and foiled erpmy efforts to penetrate depth deferjes, according to the
midnight co.amunique.

POLICE PROBE ACID. ATTACK ON WOMAN
Shortly after 9:30 o'clock last night Mrs. Chlora Pyle took her
| 1-year-old grandson, George, by the |hand and started from her nome
lat 1119 Gimber st. to buy a loaf
{ of bread. ! About 2 hundred feet west of the
vacant lot, covered with tall weeds and brush. “Oh, grandma, look at the blue light,” George said, frightened. Mrs. Pyle crouched low to see the light and unconsciously threw up her shoulder. That action probably saved her more serious injury. A bottle of acid came hurtling through the weeds, striking her on the shoulder instead of the face. Screaming, she and George ran back home. Her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Maurice Pyle, immediately applied soda to the burns, which were termed “slight” while her son ran to the field. He found nothing, he told police. Police have found no reason for the attack. About a week ago,\ a letter came to the house, addressed to “Mrs. Pyle” and marked ‘“personal.” It said: “Acid burns will be too good fo. you.” None of the Pyle’s have had trouble with aliyone, they told police. :

with repairs done quickly. Many
drivers now pampering their cars along as much as possible because there’ll be no new ones for some time ‘are finding that it’s best to make an appointment to have their cars repaired. The mechanics recruited by the auto dealers processed through the permanent recruiting office maintained at 125 W, North st. Many of them have received commissions in the ordnance maintenance division of the army and almost all
[the rest received some technical
rating. $i They go directly into ‘the army ordnance department, where they are used in the maintenance of light arms, artillery and all motorized equipment.
Organized in April
The first contingent of mechanics organized here was recruited under Capt. Malcolm Griffith, formerly used car sales and reconditioning ‘manager for the Monarch Motor Co., here. They were sent to Camp Sutton, N. C., where they joined the famed 301st ordnance regiment, the first full regiment of ordnance troops in U. S. history. It was recruited ‘by the auto dealers association and 98 per cent of its officers came from the auto business. Most ‘of the officers never before had worn a uniform and the average age of all the troops was about 35. It was in April, 1942, that the
® | war department ordered Col. D. C.
Cabell, the only professional soldier who was to be in the outfit, to form the regiment. He was. given 90 days to activate it and have it In 20 days the would-be soldiers descend-
from Charlotte, N. C., which was to be their camp, and moved into a “tent city.”
Many Are Family Mén
And in less than 90 days, all told, the bronzed troops looked like veterans and were reported ready by Col. Cabell. Between 85 and 90. per cent of the enlisted . personnel . had been connected with the automobile business or some affiliated. trade. are men who were used car salesmen, truck drivers, welders and mechanics. : A high percentage of them are family men. ‘Most of them could have remained at home for a long time and about half of them could have obtained : jobs paying from 10 to 20 times the $21 a month they received when they volunteered. Yet they volunteered so fast that the regiment was “over strength.”
Has Its Own Experts
And the regiment calls upon no one for aid. It turned up its own carpenters, small arms experts, welders and mechanics. There never has been a call for a technical expert of any kind but that someone stepped out and volunteered. The army wanted a rifle range constructed and said it would allow two and a half months. The utilities company of the regiment built it in eight days. Repairs to equipment go on as carpenters build roofs over the mechanics’ heads. Col. Cabell, . 49-year-old West Pointer, is proud of the regiment. “I wouldn’t trade places with any officer in the army,” he says. “There is ‘nothing this -outfit can’t repair. Nothing.”
