WOMEN IN WAR - Thla scene on the Aragon front in Spail shows two Loyalist soldiers operating a field telephone, And cre of the fighters is, as may be seen, a woman!
WARFARE IN SPAIN-Struggle for domination of the Aragon front in northeastern Spain has brought many scones like this, taken in the town of Igries. These ruins are the result of Insurgent air raide, when bombe rained from the clouds. Unfortunately for the village, it happened to be on the second line of the Aragon front. The ambulance has been wrecked.
DANCE-If it's a warm summer day, with the temperature hitting the high mark, you really don't need to get out and do this. It's being done so much more skilfully by these Bulgarian dancers who performed at the Castle Garden in Vienna, Austria, during an international folk-dance contest, or cours the dance is a quaint bit their ancestors did before them.
