FRENCH CAVALRY ESTABLISHES
NEW PLACE IN MODERN BATTLE

fantry divisions. withstood the ter
rife assaults of the Germans. who
hind Ypres at any cost. They en-
dured steady bombardment for days.
and when the infantry was hemmed

Later. at the battle of Locre. the
cavalry also shared fully with the in
fantry, blocking gaps in the line, and
the final definite occupation Of the
town for the allies was accomplished
by cavalry battalion. A sergeant
and handful of dragons drove forty
Germans out of the; town and at an
other point a cavalry officer and twen-
ty men backed up the infantry at a
critical moment, the officer waving a
pistol in one hand and a shovel in the
other as he led the dash which re-
stored the situation.
A few days later the same cavalry.

region and the river Ourcq.

FACING FAMOUS P|LLBOX
GUN POSITIONS
British Forces, However, Are Forg-
ing Steadily Ahead in
Rheims Sector.
BY e. PERCY NOEL.

Cabiegram to The Sunday Star and
Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1918.
WITH THE BRITISH FORCES IN
THE RHEIMS SECTOR, July 27.-
English troops continue to exert pres
sure, notably upon the we'll prepared
stronghold of Marfaux. and as far
as st. Euphraise. In the past few
days the fighting has been particu-
larly desperate in Rheims wood,
where the thick growth of trees has
not yet been removed by shellfre.
1t is this position which, according
to prisoners, the Germans are de-
termined to hold at all costs, be-
cause they recognize that the loss of
this and the ground it commands
would precipitate a general with
drawal from the salient. and such a
retirement would have a serious eff
feet upon the German defensive; it
might even lead to a debacle.
Once more !, the British have en-
countered the famous pillbox system
of machine gun emplacements. This
time they are cunningly concealed in
growing crops or fallen branches and
often in unprecedented numbers De-
spite the difficulty Of the advance.
the British have pushed ahead, some,
times yard by yard, taking one ma
chine gun nest at time, but with
such steady determination that as I
write Marfaux is almost entirely in
British hands. although under an in
termttent shower Of projectiles to
prevent it's Immediately being en-
ployed to advantage in attacking the
Germany' strongest positions.
