Otherwise, apart from the terrific excitement and tension on the whole front, the atmosphere is very alien to that of a battlefield.

You can drive for miles through sleepy villages where geese and chickens, never mind civilians, are so used to military traffic that they don't bother to get out of the road. And the only German men around are just as eager to give directions and help generally as those who wear the white armbands of civilian police. Very different is the situation farther north, where the 3d Armored Division Is fighting like demons for the town of Dassau, also on the Mulde, about 35 miles due north of Leipzig. They got in yesterday, but tonight, after more than 24 hours of grim fighting, have still only managed to get two-thirds of the town cleared. The resistance is backed by everything In the German armament, and its quality proves that whatever else they lack it certainly is not ammunition.

Today we entered Eilenburg, another Mulde River town. 15 miles northeast of Leipzig, after a fireworks show of our own which will long be remembered by those capable of still remembering. More than 7000 rounds of artillery fire fell on the town before the enemy decided to give us a rest. fr rue. y' 9 it i Wi Ami inwiiif.o-' iinwritr'.

MEDICINES FOR ITALY--Palma D'Amico of Dorchester and Madeline' Guarini of Brighton with some of the medical articles donated at the American Medical Aid to Italy banquet at Hotel Bradford. Carpenter Continued from the Flr3t Page pie were so poor there were only four glasses in the whole house. The radio on which we were receiving pur first official radio confirmation of the fact the Russians were only a few miles away, was propped on a dresser shelf, along with porcelain jars containing salt, sugar, flour and coffee acorn coffee, incidentally, judging by the smell of it. There was not much information beyond code numbers and and "Stevan-ich," figuring prominently. We cannot call Russian names on our frequencies, much as Signal Officer Lt Col Walter Given is aching to do so.

Any minute now, however, he is expecting the Russians to send a message he would like to send if permissible. That message would be, he told me, "Hello, Russian Army forces. This is American Army forces trying to establish communications. We can hear you if you will acknowledge our transmission." Meanwhile, although we are so near, we. have no way of knowing where the Russians are at the moment of writing, beyond the statement put out by the German radio they are at Freiberg, which is some 25 miles southwest of Dresden.

The most interesting news from a personal noint of view for this correspondent, is the report just re ceived that through the area in which earlier today we blissfully jeeped to the front, a special combat force has killed 12 and captured 38 Germans after "spirited and determined fighting. They were SS men and Werevolves fighting, If you there had been no actual contact. GI's who could speak Russian were in great demand and had been distributed among the va-. rious units in the bridgehead just in case. Listening in on a 83d Division headquarter radio, one of the GI's reported he could hear Russian tanks talking to each other in.

a battle which was apparently raging somewhere to the east, A reconnais-ance plane reported sighting what appeared to be Russian armor due east. The 329th and 331st Regiments in the bridgeheads were using ordinary walkie-talkie radios. Two Russian-speaking doughboys each got the thrill of his lifetime when he was answered in Russian only to find they were talking to each other! A chair in the headquarters war room was marked meanwhile with an elaborate sign, "Reserved for Joe." In the event the Russians really got near and needed any guides to the Truman Bridge across the Elbe, the Thunderbolt Division had a small task force standing by and waiting to sally forth as a welcoming committee. It was to be commanded by Lt Col Granville A. Sharpe of North Carolina, only 25 years old and a former ail-American back at Davidson.

The colonel had led some dashing raids before this, hut ne wasn't too enthusiastic over the possibility of being sent out to act as a westward guide to the Russians. With the American armies, generally, halted on the Elbe to await the Russians, this looked little political, and he didn't relish the idea of having a man of his killed for political reasons or in a publicity stunt. The reaction in the tanks, was much the same. A week ago they'd have been willing to risk life and limb on a breakthrough of their own to Berlin, but this was different. If th Russians wanted the Elbe as the meeting place, that was all right with the doughboys.

They'd just as soon wait. Col Sharpe's task force was waiting for final orders near the perimeter of the bridgehead. Headquarters was on a large farm. He himself finished a K-ration luncheon in mid-afternoon and then with all orders except the final one issued, lay down to snooze on a couch. Outside, the jeeps, tanks and tank-destroyers which would carry the task force were coiled like a vast snake from the courtyard through the surrounding orchards and out onto the muddy roads their crews and the infantry which was to ride either lolling atop the vehicles or stretched out under trees.

In the lee of a thicket, a chaplain was conducting services for a meeting of the Massachusetts branch' of American Medical Aid to Italy at the Hotel Bradford. The announcement, swelling the local group's contribution to the national fund to $15,000, came at the start of his address during which he said: "The Italy which you plan to serve and for which you are asking help cannot be cribb'd, cnbin'd or conilned within the framework of any political set-up. You are not asking aid to Fascist Italy or Liberal Italy or Monarchical Italy or Democratic 'Italy. Political systems come und go in Italy. They rarely penetrate below the surface.
