ASSOCIATED Press Summary

The vigorous offense of the entente
allies on the French, Galician and
Italian fronts is still being rewarded
with important successes.
In Austria, the Italians have cap
tured the city of Gorilla, % miles
northwest of Trieste. In Galicia, the
Russians have further carried out
their endeavors to capture the city of
S:anislau from the Austro-G Germans,
while in France the French and Brit
sh forces in the Somme region have
attacked and won additional points

Austro-German line near Stanislau,
