The pier of NAPLES, ITALY, Molo Luigi Razza, more than any other single item, lies a dying memorial to the deposed Fascisti. The false facade of marble and gilt fell with the crumbled rubble of the state. Bronze stat- ues, typifying the spirit of the undying ancients, however, remained erect, haughtily surveying the remnants of the late regime. Dead, bloated ships which once protected the Italian lifeline clog the bay. All Naples, however, is not in ruins. The Castle of St. Elmo, still intact, dominates the city ' s highest hill. To this vantage point, Naples rises from the shore to display herself, garbed with one of the world ' s most beautiful locations. Buildings, some ancient, some modern, terrace the hill ' s side, falling away into the blue waters at the city ' s shore. Mount Vesuvius, with delicate pink clouds afloat overhead forms a distant back- drop. Virgil, who was believed to be a sorcerer, once put the newly laid egg of a sea serpent into an iron cage. By magic, the egg was transformed into the Castel dell ' Ovo (Castle of the Egg). The castle still stands; Virgil ' s tomb, also, is In Naples. The San Carlo Opera house, too, survived the onslaught to remain a gem in the dust of the city. V ith Its area of 5157 square yards and stalls capable of seating 1000 spectators, it is one of Europe ' s largest, with Its plush, and gilt, and emblazoned ceiling, It is one of the world ' s most elaborate. All Italy sings; the opera Is the spirit of her singing.

The buildings were timber-fronted stucco, of the Shakespeare era. The cathedral, however, was natural red sandstone, mellowed by the driving, dampened wind, interred with local aristocracy Is the local pub-owner. Chester fronts on the River Dee, marker of the division between Eng- land and Wales. Punts and motor craft furnished a busman ' s holiday to those so inclined to ride. The trip gave the travelers the opportunity of viewing Eaton Hall, seat of the Earl of Derby, promoter of the horse race bearing his name. SOUTHPORT had been modified from her peacetime bathing resort career into a barbed wire barrier against the invader. Her hotels had been converted into hospi tals and rest centers.
