GREEK GUERRILLAS
A SWOOP AT LEROS SPEEDBOATS DESTROYED (Rec. 10 p.m.) MOSCOW, June 15. Greek guerrillas at Leros, according to reports from the Mediterranean, swooped on and destroyed more than 10 Italian speedboats. The guerrilla movement is swelling in the Dodecanese, where shepherds and fishermen have joined Greek guerrilla bands who have captured many rifles, machine guns and explosives from Italian troops. The reports of famine in Greece and daring exploits by guerrillas in Crete are fanning the efforts.
