increased 10 great strength. Monday
evening the enemy renewed his at
tacks on the battlefield OF Sunday.
South Of Meteren they were unable
10 develop owing TO our concen-
trated fire. North OF Nieux-Berquin
they were repulsod In hand-to-hand
fighting.
On both sides OF the Lys a few
days ago, without fighting, we with
drew our posts which had been
thrown forward as far west as Mer-
vile TO a line east thereof. Mer-
vile was occupied last night by
enemy detachmenis.
Near Lens and on the Scarpe Brit

turned the defenders and warded or

evening after a short outburst OF
firing. Northwest OF Roye the
French renewed their attack with
tanks. They were repulsed.
Between. Beuvraignes and the Oise
there was bitter fighting throughout
the day. Here, on a broad front, the

DOUBLE HEADER
At HARLAN field
Lebanon and Naval Re-
serves to be Visiting
Teams on Saturday
STEEL LEAGUERS
HAVE HARD GAME

Because OF the Ions trip home. the
game between Lebanon and Harlsn's
on Saturday afternoon at Harlan Park,
this city. Will be the first one played.
The game between the Fourth Naval
Reserve OF League Island and the
Steel League team will follow immedi-
ately after.
The Naval Reserve team has a for
midsble lineup. II would be enough TO
throw a scarce into most any SEMI
professional team. The roster includes
Fritz Of the Chicago Federals; McWll-
liams, OF the New York Americans; (;
Upland and Weaver OF the Chicago
Cubs; Hoeffner Of the Athletics; Nc
Cord OF Harrisburg; McKenty OF the
Phillies; Powell Of Detroit; Letters OF
Brooklyn and Schwert OF the New York
Americans.
Among some OF the teams they have
defeated are the University OF Pennsyl-
vania, Parksburg. StrawbTidge and
Clothicr. Pltman, Pennsgrove, Disston,
Camp Dix, Cape May, Stetson, Athlet-
les and Cincinnati.
Fred Payne's Pets have sot 10 go
some 10 defeat this team. Flushed with
a string OF consecutive victories. they
have confidence In believing. that for a
team out OF the big leagues, they are
just as good as any that comes down
the pike. Then again, they have many
big league players who know what 90
do at the right time. Their experience
Is a big help 10 them az crucial times,
and has resulted for many OF the VIC
tories they have won.
The game with Lebanon is just as
important. for Harlan's chances for
winning the pennant, depend as much
on the outcome as any game they have
yet 10 play. This fact Is realized and
Manager Payne Is going TO put his best
foot forward 10 cop the game.
