DESPERATE GERMANS
USE UNFRAMED MEN
By the Associated Press

with the American Army In Cham
pagne. Oct. S.--The Germans delivered
a local attack in Champagne at daylight
yesterday east of St. Etienne. The re-
ceived counter-thrust at the hands of
the Americans which those who lived
to tell the tale will long remember.
The Americans had advanced in for
nation pending a German attack and
they more than met the Germans half
way. When the German artillery
opened the Americans were ready and
sent into the enemy line five or more
shells for every German projectile
hurled at them.
AS the German artillery opened
along the line from st. Etienne to
Orfeuil several companies of German
infantry started filtering through the
shaggy patches OF pine wood. Most of
chem were seasoned troops. The
French and American artillery, how.
ever. was 50 effective that these vet.
Grams were thrown into confusion.
Many of them were killed.
American troops operating in the
Champagne with the French again ad-
vanced their lines Sunday. capturing st.
Etienne.
The American progress served also
as a leverage on the right of, the Cham
payne offensive. resulting in advances
further west, the result being the with
drawal OF the German lines along a
twenty-hve-milc stretch.
The bulk OF the work was done by a
division which Is among the most famous
the United States has In France.
