attacks to throw US back from some
of our recently conquered positions
Thus on August 8 our troops repulsed
an attack in the Sexten avlley
against Fonte del Rimbianco and an
advance Of the enemy in force from
Freikofel.
In Carnia are reported intense action
by. our artillery and small advances
by our infantry. The enemy tried
unsuccessfully to place movable wire
entanglemsnts before our trenches
on Monte Medatta.
Near PLAYA yesterday at nightfall our
troops successfully repulsed a double

some parts OF the front Our infan-
try charged with such dash that two
companies succeeded In capturing at
the point Of the bayonet strongly
