World News Today brought to you by the Admiral Corporation, makers of Admiral Radio, America's Smart Set, and post-war makers of Admiral Major Homoplances. By shortwave broadcast to wreck from important overseas stations, as well as leading news centers of our own country, CBS correspondents are waiting to bring you a complete report from the world's political and battlefronts.

But first, here's Doug Edwards. These are the news highlights of the moment. bombers based in the Mediterranean area have made their fourth attack on German industries in Stuyer in Austria. Moscow dispatches say the hour of liberation is near for the Black Sea naval base of Odessa with two powerful Russian armies closing in on the city along a 175-mile front.

In the Far East, the Japanese have cut the important road leading from the Allied supply base at Impo to Koima in India's Montypur Province. And now news direct from Italy and an interview with one of our fighting men from Tennessee.

Admiral takes you to CBS Naples, Eric Saveride reporting. The last news bulletin from here announces a heavy raid by Mediterranean Allied Air Forces on the aircraft and ball bearing factory at star 90 miles west of Vienna. That happened today.

There was first opposition booked from Black and fighters, but we're not told how many planes we lost. The plane forces is also bound to air yards in Yugoslavia. here on the Italian front, the heavy artillery duel continued and patrols were active.

Patrols were active. It is an innocent little phrase you see every night in the communique. I want you to hear now what a patrol is actually like. The time was 30, the place of brown knoll called the Temple in No Man's Land.
