PAGE TWO PROVO (UTAH) EVENING HERALD, THURSDAY, JUNE 17, 1937 Agony of Bilbao Told By United Press Man Editor's Note: Emilio Herrero, veteran member of the United Press Madrid staff, has arrived at Bordeaux, France, to tell the first uncensored story of the agony of Bilbao. At the outbreak of the civil war 11 months ago today Herrero was on vacation in the Bilbao area. He reached Bilbao and began reporting the war in that area. He has been there since. In the belief that in the event the nationalists occupied Bilbao, Herrero's life would be in acute danger, he was ordered to go to Ifraiicc.

Herrero's first dispatch follows: sweeping down to within 700 feet, machine gunning. At the time I left the official casualty list covering men at the front was 5,000 dead and 17,000 wounded. These figures were suppressed by censors. BV EMILIO HERREKO United Press Staff Correspondent World Copyright 1937 by United Press BORDEAUX, France, June 17 Bilbao continued fighting valiantly if hopelessly today to keep its boast that it never give.s in. The line of fortifications which the Basque loyalists thought im- pr-egnable has crumbled.

Spanish and Italian infantry are moving in on the suburbs while German airplanes bomb the city. For days the streets have quaked under the bombardment. There has been no let up day or night. The loyalist artillery batteries are drawn up in the streets. No food 'has reached the city since last Saturday.

Water is running low. Twenty-two thousand of the Basque militia have fallen. The situation is desperate. But believe, after having been through the 77 days of siege, that the battle is not definitely settled. Everything that I saw up to the moment that 1 left Bilbao Tuesday, indicated that it is not going to be easy for the nationalists to consolidate their victory.

Every building may prove a fortress and every window may conceal its rifleman or machine gunner. The Basque government has not left the city. President Jose Antonio De Aguirre and his colleagues have established their headquarters in a sub-cellar of one of the city's most modern buildings. Some ministerial departments have been sent to a small town ijear Bilbao, whose name 1 have promised not to disclose. Some 2,000 nationalist political prisoners have been moved westward to Stantandet province.

All bank deposits have been sent to Santander. Many of the nationalist hostages might have been free today had the siege of the city been them were going on when the attack started. As I left, the loyalists were just mining the big bridge over Ner- vion river at its mouth. I am informed today that this bridge has been blown up so that the nationalists can not cross to the west bank. Before I left the city was a dead place.

Only soldiers and officials, in addition to newspaper correspondents, circulated the streets freely. Airplanes were "THE DEVIL IS DRIVING" to UINTA SUNDAY Appeals Made for Bilbao Surrender HENDAYE, French Spanish Frontier, June 17 broadcast by radio today-an appeal to the Basque loyalists to surrender peaceably. The appeal was broadcast by the nationalist station at Salamanca, "capital" of the nationalist junta. "Most honorable terms" were offered if the Basques would agree to evacuate the city.

Changed Uniform Helps Pitchers NEW YORK, June 17 (C.Ri Sometimes a change in uniforms works wonders with a ball-player.

That seems to be the case with Wesley Ferrell and Buck Newsom. They were discontented and a couple of large headaches to their respective managers. On June 10 Washington shipped Newsom and Ben Chapman to the Boston Red Sox in retuin for t'he Pen-ell brothers, Wes and Rick, and Mel Almada. The shift in scenery transformed Newsom and Ferrell into pitching fools. Both won their second games within a week for their new teams yesterday.

Newsom pitched the Red. Sox to a 3-2 victory over the Chicago White Sox. Wes Ferrell hurled Washington to a 2-1 victory over Detroit in 12 innings. Prior to their shift Newsom's record was three games won and four lost and Fen-ell's three games won and six lost. Young Slayer To Die In Electric Chair BUFFALO, N.
