LIMITED AIR ATTACKS
ENEMY TRANSPORT STRAFED (Bee. 11.30 a.m.) RUGBY, May 9. Poor visibility in the target _ areas forced the cancellation of the missions of heavy and medium bombers yesterday, writes a Naples correspondent, but there was some fighter activity. _ Light units bombed and strafed the highway north of Rome, destroying 32 motor vehicles and two tank carriers, and damaging 38 trucks and a third tank carrier. A motor launch and a barge were sunk in the Tiber River. Spitfires bombed and demolished a German headquarters at Srebic on Peljesak Peninsula in the course of activity across the Adriatic.
