Sector Of Famous "Wall"
West Of Queant Penetrated
By Haig's Men.
HEAVY ATTACK BEGINS.
Fourth Period Of Intensive
Fighting in Progress on
Front Near Queant.

The British troops have reached
Cherisy, crossed the Hindenberg line
toward Reincourt, and reported to
have taken Bullecourt, says Reuters
correspondent at British head
quarters.
The official report from British
headquarters in France tonight reads.
Fighting occurred throughout the
day from west of Queant to north of
Fresnoy, four miles east of the village
of Vimy. The enemy brought up
large reserves of men and guns and
delivered repeated counter-attacks
practica lily along the whole battle
front.
These hostile forces suffered
heavily from our concentrated artil-
lery and machine gun fire, both while
assembling prior to the attack and
during the actual assault.
'1n the face of obstinate resistance
our troops this morning penetrated a
sector of the Hindenburg line west of
Queant and have maintained them
selves there all day against constant
and powerful attacks.
In addition to the enemy'S severe
losses in killed and wounded we cap
tured several hundreds of German
prisoners.
Great activity continues in the air.
Four German airplanes were brought
down in the aerial fighting and another
hostile machine was shot down in our
lines. In addition our airplanes drove
down five other enemy airplanes out
of control and destroyed other Ger
man kite balloons. One of our ma
chimes is missing"
