more than 1000 prisoners were taken.
Eavelle is part of the last definite

Further south, British troops have
captured the remainder. of the village
of Trescault and occupied the greater
part of Havrincourt wood, which
formed two-mile bulge in their line.
From this point to st. Quentin the
line approached very closely the Cam

The British also made progress in
the region southwest of Lens, the Ger,
man garrison of which town is daily
facing a more critical situation.
Airplanes fairly filled the air over
the battle lines Monday directing the
