Monday, Aug. 12.-During the lull in

tions that the line is hardening.

precht of Bavaria seems to have
brought in more fresh troops, and
while the allied forces are pausing
OF their own accord, the enemy with
in the area of his new battlefront,
with the Somme at his back, is hav-
ing a most uncomfortable time. The
British guns are hammering Chaul-
mes, while cannon of larger calibre
are coming up all the time and
drenching the enemy rear with
steel. They are also pounding away
at the bridges across the Somme at
Bethencourt.
The Smelling of the bridges here
is a serious matter for the enemy as

Hun Attacks RepuIsed.


London, Aug. 13.-British troops
have gained additional ground north
of Roye and on the north bank of
the Somme, says the official state
ment from Field Marshal Haig to-
day.
The Germans last night attacked
the British positions in the Merris
sector Flanders. They were re-
pulsed.
The Germans delivered a local at
tack near FOuques Court, on the line
between Roye and Chaulnes. 1t also
was rcpulsed.
The statement reads:
On the battle front our troops eff
fected further improvements in their
positions north of the Roye road and
on the north bank of the Somme and
captured additional prisoners. A
local attack made by the enemy in
the neighborhood of Fouquescourt
was repulsed.
They captured a few prisoners in
patrol encounters south of the
Scarpe, Arras front, and in the
neighbDrhOOd Of VieuX -Berquin
(F1anders).
"A hostile attack against our posi-
lions in the Merris sector was repuls-
ed after sharp fighting"

Still Removing Supplies.
With the Frehch Army in France,
Aug. IL nday).-Difficdlty in
| bringing up artillery ammunition
over battered roads brought a COM
parative lull on the French sector to-
day. Infantry activity was confined
to local engagements. The enemy is
now reinforcing his old line which he
held from 1914 to 1917, and 1t will
require heavier armament to batter
a way through. The Germans have
attempted several counter attacks,
but they were without marked Vigor
and gained no success.
1t is believed that the stand the
Germans are preparing to take in
their old trenches is likely to prove
only a temporary expedient to obtain
time in which to move back the
stores Of material and to organize
artillery and infantry. There IS great
activity in the German line east Of
Chaulnes. All the roads are enCum-
bered with wagon trains, indicating
the enemy is still moving out the am
munition and supplies gathered in
that region.
The latest prisoners taken say that
they belong to the rear guard, whose
mission IS 10 delay LIl6 advance VI
the French and facilitate the retire
ment of the main force with the sup
plies and big guns.
The German artillery, which had
been maintaining only harrassing
fire up to yesterday, Is now laying
down barrages, which alone are suf-
ficient to slow up the French ad-
vance.
In spite Of the intensified Smelling
the French today made gains in local
operations, occupying favorable posi-
tions north of Poye- sur Matz and
Fearful Ruin.
A fearful spectacle of ruin spreads
out along the great sweep Of rolling
pasture lands behind Boulogne-la-
Grasse and Roolot, southwest Of
There the eenmy is con-
tinuing his desperate resistance.
Heaps Of the German dead lie on
every side and the field that was
formerly green, now is torn up and
strewn with masses Of debris. The
spirit of French troops is superb. In
the front they have undergone great
in their advance Of 10 kilo-
through fields swept by gun
fire. The enemy's tactics are intend

MYERS WILL TRY

Vaulter to Attempt Feat
at Penn Relays
BETTER THAN WRIGHT

Myers, of Dartmouth, will undoubtedly
try for a new worlds record at The re-
lay carnival next week. Harry Hillman,
coach of Myers, feels sure that his
vaulter is capable Of making new figures.
Hillman coached the present record hold
er Mare Wright. who in 1912 cleared
10 feet Pa inches. doing this in the
tryOuts for the Olympic team that later
went to Stockholm.
Wright was a great vaulter but I'M
man. states that he thinks that Myers
has all that Wright used to have. with
several inches longer reach due to his
greater height During the winter
Myers has vaulted higher than Wright
ever did under the same indoor Condi-
| tons. In practice Myers has cleared
/ ? feet inches, while in a recent meet
in the Dartmouth cage he did 10 feet G e
/ inches.
| 1t is unfortunate that Sherman
| Landers, of the University of Pennsyl-
vana team, is not in shape TO push

monia will keep him out of the games
