FRIDAY, AUGUST 3, 1951 THE DAILY T IMES-GAZETTE PAGE NINE Italian Who Will Command Allies in South Europe Verona, Italy (AP)--A general who proudly says "I won all my medals leading combat soldiers be- fore I was a captain" commands allied land ferces in Southern Eu- rope. o He is Italian army corps General Maurizio Lazzaro de Castiglionl. His full title is Commander, Land Forces, North Atlantic Treaty Or- ganization, Southern Europe, His job, should war start would be to cover General Dwight Eisenhow- er's right flank. The 63-year-old general likely would have won more combat med- als had it not been for a First World War training accident. He was teaching his Alpine troops to use Austrian hand grenades in 1916. One soldier dropped a gren- ade after pulling the firing pin. Captain de Castiglionl grabbed it from the ground and threw. The grenade exploded as it left his right hand, blowing off his fingers. He saved several lives but the loss of his fngers made him ineligible for further front line command. General de Castiglioni takes the experience of three wars and 40 years of service to his biggest job. He was 23 and a newly made sec- ond lieutenant fresh from Italy's military academy when the Italo- Turkish war took him to his first battlefield on the shores of Libya. Today, stocky and greying, his command headquarters is the hand- gome 18th century Carli Palace in Verona -- the legendary city of Romeo and Juliet. The palace has figured in Europe's history before. A hundred years ago Austrian Em- peror Franz Josef departed from t to sign the peace of Villafranca de Verona with Emperor Napoleon [T. The treaty gave Lombardy to Italy. The palace had been the head- quarters of Austria's famous field marshal, Count Joseph Radetzky. From his palace headquarters, General de Castiglioni reports to U.S. Admiral Robert Carney, com- mander of allied land, sea and air forces in Southern Europe. Admiral Carney is expected to establish his permanent headquarters in a Na- ples villa soon. General de Castiglioni remained in Italy during .the Spanish civil war and the ian war. The first and second woyld wars brought the high and low points of his ca- reer. The high po came in 1916 when he was among the first to span the Piave river after the dis- astrous defeat of .Caporetto. The crossing started the offensnye which put the Italians on the road to victory. It was "the good one which end- ed with the complete encirclement of the Austrian army between the Alps and the Adriatic," he recalls. The armist] which took Italy out of the Second World War brought low point. General de Cas- tiglioni, on the general staff throughout the war, had been given command of the Pusteria alpine di- vision shortly before the armistice. ur days after the signing he was ordered to abandon his positions against the Germans and disband his men. As commander of the alpine di- vision, he directed Italian occupa- tion forces in France from Savoy to the Mediterranean. "We never fought the maquis," he says, "because it was impossible and because I did not want to wid- en the gap between the French and the Italians. . The general is a soldier's soldier, little known outside the army un- til his recent appointment.

'activated' Shell Premium! Polish Crew Seize Ship Seek Haven Stockholm (CP) -- Sixteen crew members of a Polish minesweep- er today sought asylum in Sweden after seizing the craft from their officers and taking it to Swedish waters. The Communist vessel was taken by a Swedish cutter into the port of Ystad, where everyone aboard was placed in voluntary custody of police. The vessel carried 30 of- ficers and men. ; The cutter went out to investi- gate the erratic course of the minesweeper, and found seamen in charge of it. Anders Skotte, Master pilot who steered the Swedish: cutter, said the men cheerfully admitted they had locked their officers below. Skotte said the mutineers '"'look- ed very relieved'" to find them- selves in Swedish waters. Four Nations Co-Ordinate Bomb Sizes Washington (AP) -- The United States, Canada and Britain have agreed in general upon the specifi- cations of a "new family" of four basic-sized bombs. Col. V. F. Fairfax of the U. 8. Air Force supply division told a military appropriations sub - com- mittee of the house of representa- tives that the bombs were of the same general type and sizes so as to be interchangeable among the three countries. His testimony, made public yes- terday, said the four basic Bombs are: (1) The 10,000 - pound high- performance bomb, (2) the 3000- pound high - performance bomb, (3) 750 - pound general - purpose bomb and (4) 1000-pound special low-drag bomb, to be carried ex- ternally by high-speed jet fighter bombers.

The shipment of gold was de- livered to the plane here under police guard. Stops were made at Brazzaville, Belgian Congo and at Kano, Nigeria. When the plane ar- rived at Rome, the gold was gone. Company officials said there was probably a connection between this and two other disappearances from KLM planes recently.

Eden Hopes Agument Is Possible Port Hope Eden said Wednesday he has not lost hope than an agreed settle- ment" of differences will be reach- ed between the Communists and western democracies. But, said the No. 2 man in Bri- tain's Conservative party, the west must be strong before it can hope to negotiate the settlement. "We must never forget that our purpose in rearming is to attain peace by negotiation from strength," Mr. Eden said in an in- terview here. 'And I do not by any means despair of reaching an agreed settlement. Mr. Eden is visiting friends in Ontario briefly before starting on a speaking tour of the United States.

Anthony Job Hunting Can Be Fun Estevan, Sask, (CP) -- Yvonne LaCoste is back home for a spell after travels that began in a mu- nitions plant at Toronto.and ended in a Venezuela town where the na- tives are chocolate-colored with green eyes and reddish hair. Yvonne began her travels some years ago when she left with sev- eral other girls from this town to work in the munitions plant. After the war she got work in a mental hospital at Toronto. Seven months of that was followed by a year's work in a New York factory. Then she heard of Punto Fijo, the boom town of Venezuela's great seashore oil industry. She went down there and got a posi- tion catering to tourists. Her hotel position allowed lots of spare time during which she went sight-see- ing, swimming in the Caribbean and collecting oil paintings. : Miss LaCoste said she was amaz- ed at first at the natives and the climate in the Venezuela oil town. "They are beautiful people with the oddest coloring," she said. "They have chocolate-colored skins, green eyes and brown hair with red glints in it." . She liked the climate there too. It goes over 100 degrees in summer and stays in the 80s in winter. But "it isn't uncomfortably hot through- out," she explained. "The breezes are always delightfully cool." Yvonne shortly is leaving for Mi- ami to discuss plans for a dress in Venezuela. But even if the plan works out, she doesn't think she would settle down for long She has a hankering to see Africa and China. Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel, Ger- man astronomer who died in 1846, When Y ou See the World 64 Year Old Woman Lost In Bushland Killarney, Ont. (CP) -- For the second successive day, every able- bodied man in this Georgian Bay village searched surrounding wood- lands as the hunt continued for Kate Tyson, 64, missing since Monday. Miss Tyson left her home Mon- day morning to pick blueberries. When she failed to return that evening, a search was started and every day it has increased in in- y. Today a posse of 47; led by the missing woman's nephew, Andy Tyson, Northern Ontario wolf trap- per, fanned out from the blue- berry patch where Miss Tyson said she was going. Searchers have found traces of the woman's wanderings through this heavily-timbered area. Tues- day they found two berry pails and a cup 'and yesterday a piece of material torn from her dress.
