The advance was greatest on the right,

violently. The enemy gained nothing
by these efforts, however, except to
slow up the American advance temper.

lery activity has increased along the
entire line with the Americans easily
Dutshooting the enemy.
Enemy resistance increased steadily
ON the left of the American sector and
q number of new German units have
been identified. The enemy troops in
many instances held on to machine gun
nests until they were literally wiped

the Germans another strip of territory.
