In an in tense Effort to crack our beachhead before the British 2>lte at their flank. The bloodiest fighting yesterday took place in front of at Tallia and alb Anelta on the High ground opposite the Southern end of the Bridgehead. An american combat team wiped out 13 attacking tanks before the Day was Over in a terrain not particularly suitable for tanks. Tie germans have been using their Armor to complement Small tightly grouped task forces a hitting hard at Allied Strong Points often in night attacks to avoid our air attacks. Any Allied Advance has the serious disadvantage of Rushing up into firmly placed Oerman gun looking Down on them from the High ground. The germans have the added advantage of an easier taster flow of reinforcements a troops and much a coded supplies. It Gen. Mark Clark paid High compliment to the terrific support of our air and Navy. Under the command of vice Admiral Henry k. Hewill u. S. Navy.

But rapid As the 8th army s Advance is 99 Miles since yesterday frontline correspondents generally expect the critical Days of the beachhead fight to be decided before the both army hinge itself with the 5th army. In addition to an increasing amount of blown up Bridges and Rood demolitions the British have also been slowed Down by the problem of waiting for their supplies to retch up with them. As Gen. Sir Bernard Montgomery both army commander put it. Quot my trouble is that when i go Forward i have to curl up my Tail behind me Quot. Montgomery attributed much of his Success in Libya to the fact that he never hit until he had All his supplies until he had something to hit with. The Allied line in the South stretches East of Belvedere the coastal town captured yesterday approximately 89 Miles from Salerno. Enemy resistance in the entire Southern area has been slight and inconsequential except for a Small German pocket near Gioja Halfway Between tar into and Bari. In that sector yesterday ailed troops freed 909 italian captured prisoners of War including several greek generals
