Kreyes figures he's out of luck.
When Miss Doris Martin, 10.
pretty university student, dropped
eighteen feet to the bottom Of a
sewer man-hole in the middle Of a
downtown street, kreves~ attempted
to climb down and rescue her. He
slipped, however, and dropped to the
bottom Of the hole beside her. Fire
men staged a prosaic rescue after
the two stood in three feet of icy
water half an hour.

Today's War Moves.

Today's War Moves.
DESPITE an apparent revival Of
both artillery and infantry engage
ments along most of the western
front, interest in the war moves TO-
day was still centered on the human
ian and Russian fronts.
In Rumania the Berlin statement
reported continued progress toward
Galatz and detailed an incident OF
river fighting. Laburtea was captur-
ed. To the west, in Moldavia, Berlin
claimed repulse of enemy attacks
north and south of Susita valley ana
capture by storming of several Rus
sian positions in the Oitoz valley.
The German official statement IN
dicated the Russian offensive around
Riga is still under way, but claimed
repulse of enemy attacks and "amel-
oriation' of German positions south
west of Riga by two minor attacks.
Fighting activity increased on the
Duena and in the lake sector.
