last night after they allegedly attempted to hold up William Litten, 53, of 1611 E. Washington st, Litten said he was driving at Post rd and E. Washington st. when he noticed two cars had “boxed” him in between them. He said to get out of the trap he turned into the driveway of a farm house, blew his horn and shouted for help as several boys followed him. The farmer's son whose name was not learned brought out a rifle and the hoodlums in the two cars raced away. Deputy sheriffs caught them in Cumberland. All seven of them were held under high bonds for investigation,

tured Siegfried line pillboxes, the party was rounding a curve on a slippery road in the mountains when their jeep skidded while trying to avoid a fast-moving column of supply trucks.
The jeep struck a tree. Brand: was catapulted from the back seat on top of Baillie and Stevenson, who were only slightly hurt. Baillie was thrown into the windshield, but his steel helmet broke through the glass. He received only a couple of mild abrasions of the neck. Stevenson, who previously was twice wounded in battle, sustained only a cut lip requiring three stitches by an army surgeon. Brandt's chief complaint was over the smashing of his fine camera against the windshield, although his injuries were the most painful received of any in the group. He had no abrasicns, but his right leg and chest were badly bruised.

of Arnhem. The dominating crossroad of Elst, where -a Nazi road-|o block delayed the flow of supplies destined for the marooned paratroopers, was cleared, enabling the expansion of the British spearhead. The advance beyond Bemmel was aimed toward the Linge canal, which runs in an east-west direction about half-way between the Waal-Rhine and Neder Rhine. As the Tommies pushed forward, Mitchells and -Bostons joined the battle of Eastern Holland. They smashed at Emmerich, 12 miles southeast of Bemmel, where the Germans were moving supplies into the battle zone. Battles of varying size and intensity flared all along Marshal Sir Bernard L. Montgomery's 21st army group front. The slap-dash advances following the airborne landings were over, and it had become a slugging match. On the left wing of the Dutch front, the line between Antwerp and Eindhoven was moving northward, and narrowing the gap through which the Germans to the west might escape. There were indications of a fighting withdrawal by the Germans in the Ryckerborsal area, where the British seized a bridgehead across the AntwerpTurnhout canal.
Stave Off Nazi Attacks
Headquarters reports indicated the American 1st and 3d armies were engaged primarily in staving cff Gernnan counter-thrusts and exchanging artillery fire with the enemy. The Canadian siege army was battering slowly but surely through the last-ditch defenses of Calais, and a front dispatch reported the capture of the citadel. The Canadians were fighting a diabolical array of booby traps, mines and inundations as well as the doomed Nazi garrison. Calais, a city of 56,000, in peacetime was one of the main channel crossing terminals. Headquarters announced that the United States 82d and 10st airborne divisions took part in the aerial attack on Holland. A field dispatch from United Press War Correspondent Ronald Clark revealed that tanks and ina er: of the 2d army swung back to the attack above Nijmegen today, driving northeastward through the nine-mile corridor separating the upper and lower Rhine estuaries. Fanatical Nazi elite guard units, whose tanks and guns finally over. wheimed the Red Devils little more than two days earlier, moved in to meet the new British thrust and Clark reported that fierce fighting was in progress this morning.
1000 Bombers Attack
More than 1000 American heavy bombers attacked German war industries at Magdeburg, Kassel and Mersberg southeast of Berlin today as clear weather permitted the allies to continue their aerial offensive against installations vital to enemy front-line operations, and the Luftwaffe again employed intended swamping tactics by throwing about 100 fighter planes at one of the formations. The bombers were accompanied by 500 to 750 fighter planes as they raided a synthetic oil plant and railroad marshaling yard at Magdeburg, the Henschel tank works at Kassel, and other industrial targets at Merseburg. Berlin reported that the long dormant American 3d army front around Metz had flared into furicus activity and fighting on a major | scale was in progress between Metz and Gravelotte, seven miles west.
Blame Bad Weather
Despite the vitrual annihilation of the Red Devil division, official spokesmen refused to write off the operation as an unqualified defeat. The prize at stake was a full-scale into northwestern Germany that headquarters sources said might have dealt a knockout blow to the Nazi regime. The protracted stand at Arnhem, they said, failed only because of bad weather that prevented the continuous supply of the airborne division by plane and because the Germans reacted faster than had been anticipated and were able to move overwhelming force into the
