Greek Villages Bombed From Air

ITALIAN PLANKS IV COUNTERATTACK ON FIGHTING GREEK FORCES ATHENS, Greece, Nov. 12.—(UP) Italian airplanes have started bombing and machine-gunning Greek towns in a desperate attempt to regain the offensive which Italian ground forces lost in disastrous defeats at the frontier, the public security ministry said today. Janina, road junction 40 miles from the Albanian border, the first main objective of the Italian army’s right wing which was never menaced from the ground, was bombed and mach-ine-gunned from the air. Another unnamed town in Epirus was raided by planes which flew low, raking the streets with machine gun fire and dropping hand grenades. In the east, an unnamed town in Thessaly was bombed and Salonica had five ati ! raid alarms in 24 hours. The island | of Corfu in the Ionian sea and a vil1 lage in the Peloponnesus were bombed. In the northern mountain sector, scene of one of the worst Italian defeats. the security ministry said, the retreating Italians pillaged three towns. The war ministry described the air activity as intense, but said the raids were everywhere unsuccessful and casualties were slight.

Iowa was blanketed with snow that choked roads and disrupted communications and travel. More l than a foot of snow fell at Spirit | Lake. la., where an army ariplane with three men aboard was believed to have crashed. Search for the missing men was delayed by the

blizzard.

In Minnesota, the mercury dipped close to the zero mark and sheep and turkey flocks died in the fields. One flock of 4.000 turkeys was reported killed by the cold at Worthington, Minn.
