Nazis Fall Back From Assaults In Italy, Russia
(International News Service)
German lines of defense on two widely-separated battle fronts totered precariously today.
In central Italy and in Russia the Nazis fell back in the face of heavy attacks, and there were strong indications this week end would witness changes of spectacular importance.
Allies Land North of Volturno
German troops in Italy lost their major advantage in guarding Rome from the Allies when Lt. Gen. Mark W. Clark's United States fifth army crossed the Volturno river in force and launched an attack that seems destined to compel complete Nazi abandonment of positions.
The Allied campaign was stepped up by a new amphibious landing of strong forces on the western coast of Italy north of the Volturno river's mouth. These troops swept inland against heavy enemy opposition, consolidated their positions and moved for a junction with other Allied forces.
Russians Progress in South
Soviet troops which severed the Metropole-Crimea railway at two places, surged ahead to trap the German garrison on the Crimean peninsula.
The Germans fought fierce rear guard actions to cover their retreat in the southern Ukraine. Unbroken Soviet progress was reported, however. The Russians moved in against Kiev and sought to break down the last barriers of enemy resistance at Gomel.
Yanks Demolish Jap Base
No new Allied raids were reported against Germany in the wake of the giant attack on a huge Nazi war plant at Schweinfurt, in which 104 German planes were destroyed against a loss of 60 American bombers and two fighters.

Washington, (INS) — President Roosevelt disclosed today that the United States government has had under way for a year and a half a full time study of post-war problems and readjustment, both in the domestic and international fields.
In continuation of heavy raids against Japanese bases, Gen-Douglas MacArthur's airmen carried out a blistering assault on the Kahili airdrome in the Solomons. They left this last enemy stronghold in the Solomons a heap of flaming
FDR Discloses Study Of Post-War Plans
Without giving any details of the immediate plans in hand, Mr. Roosevelt said that the study had been undertaken 18 months ago by Secretary of State Cordell Hull.
The study is being made, he said, to examine matters affecting the end of the war and deals with postwar problems.

KU, Washburn To Tangle In Second Fight Tomorrow
Shipping Date Is Oct. 31 For 18-Year-Old A-12's
Eighteen-year-old A-12 men will leave the University on Oct. 31 instead of Oct. 30 as was formerly announced. A mistake was made in the announcement issued from the Army office.
Represent KU Women In Council
Everything points to a dog fight when two victory-starved, revamped elevens—the Washburn Ichabods and the Kansas Jayhawks—tangle here in Memorial Stadium tomorrow afternoon in a return battle. Kickoff will be at 2:20 in this duel which will see the winner emerge with his first victory of the season.
The nine women shown above were chosen last spring in a student election to act as representatives on the All Student Council. This governing organization took over the duties formerly administrated by the MSC and WSGA.

Washington (INS)—President Roosevelt today publicly delivered a stinging rebuke to Argentina, charging that government with anti-Semitic actions that hewed to Naomi doctrines.
Roosevelt Rebukes Argentine Action
The chief executive paved the way for a vigorous diplomatic protest by the State department against Argentina's action in suspending publication of Jewish newspapers.
Voice, Piano, Violin Numbers Presented In Student Recital
The second student recital of the School of Fine Arts was presented yesterday afternoon in Fraser theater. The program incuded four voice numbers, two piano numbers, and one violin selection.
The opening number was a piano solo "La Fileuse" (Raff) played by Beverly Greiner. Two voice solos followed, "Traum durch die Dammung" (Richard Strauss) sung by Suzanne Schmidt, and "Vilamella" (Dell 'Acqua) by Arlene Nickels.
"Intermezzo in a A Minor" (Dohanyi), a piano solo, was played by Helen Stark. Norma Jean Lutz sang "Psych" (Paladibhe) and "Caro Nome" from Verdi's "Rigoleto" was sung by Elaine Talley. The program closed with a violin solo, three movements from "Adelaide" (Mozart) played by Sarepta Pierpoint.
Propose Bill to Limit Officials
Washington (INS)—Senator W. Lee O'Daniel (D.Texas), introduced a resolution in the senate yesterday calling for a constitutional amendment limiting the presidency and vice-presidency to a single term of six years.
He also proposed a six-year limitation for service either in the senate or the house.
Denver, 6 to 19, and to Iowa State, 6 to 13; while Washburn was bowing to Kansas State, 7 to 13, and to Pittsburgh Teachers, 0 to 39.
Virtually the same lineups were used by both teams in their first three games. However, the dissatisfaction of Coach Bob Raugh of the Ichabads and Coach their teams' performances, and the Henry Shenk of the Jayhawks with arrival in both camps of a dozen or more V-5 cadets, has changed the picture. Several new faces will appear in both lineups tomorrow. Four Regulars Will Start Game
Four standbys—Warren Reigle, Junius Penny, Frank Gruden, and George Dick—will start again in the Kansas line. Gruden has been shifted to guard, where he won Rocky Mountain conference honors last year with Wyoming.
Wayne Hird, who was a tackle or Elmer Schaake's undefeated Lawrence High team last year, will replace Dan Chase as starting snapper back.
New Player at Guard
Starting at the other guard slot will be a newcomer, 150 pound Cliff "Dynamite Wade, from Wichita North High. Wade, probably the smallest Kansas lineman in history, warmed the bench in the other two games, not traveling to Denver. "Dynamite" scrapped like a wildcat all week and induced Kansas coaches to jump him to a place on the starting eleven.
Shenk's nomination of Edward Miller, 190 pound Naval Cadet from Brookfield, M., at a starting tacksbook came as a surprise. LeBoy Robison will start at blocking back, Charles Moffett at tailback, John Bergin at right half, and Bob Carson at the fullback post. Raugh Schicks Ichabads
Coach Raugh will again start Larry Reid, former Topaike High star, at one end, but will have a converted back. Dewey Burton, at the other flank. Norrbarr, the Ichabod's second best kicker, has also been shifted to end. Ed Hailey, halfback, was shifted during the week to center, the spot he played at Topaike High. Milvihill, another blocking back, will play guard, and Bill Grabow, of Highland Park will probably team with Bill Herron as starting guards. Herron was the outstanding lineman for Washburn in the first game with the Jayhawks. Frank Becker and Edd Schneider are still starting tackles.
Two Naval cadets, Harold Duddridge and Jim Nickaloff, will start in the Ichabad backfield with Bob Victor and Monte Manuel. Duddridge, with only two night's practice was Washburn's only bright spot in their gloomy 39 to 0 loss at the hands of Pittsburg. Victor, who looked good at tailback in the K. U.-Washburn game, has been shifted
