.HA|G COUNTERS
 ON ENEMY E ] LINES ]
Checks Advance at Albert and Ad vances Lines East of Somme and
 Ancre Over @ Mile

LONDON, March 28:-Gen. Haig in command of the British troops is countering heavily upon the enemy this afternoon in the region of AL bert, where the enemy advance has been checked. South of Albert he car ried out several counter attacks and has advanced his lines eastward be- tween the Somme and Ancre about a mile south of Somme river.
 The British have regained Proyart and have repulsed strong attacks at Rosieres. Along the Ancre north of Albert the British threw the Germans back across the river and drove them from two towns between Albert and Monchy on this front.
 The fighting in the vicinity of AL bert was especially heavy, the enemy charging the British lines again and again. Whole regiments were swept away like chaff under the intense ma chine gun fire. Piles of dead and WouHucu hfbSO uCCl y iH6 oh llS HCiu the past two days with no attempt on the part of the enemy to care for it's wounded.
 At Rosieres, on the Ancre river, the attacking enemy was literally swept off his feet by the impetus of the British counter attack, and were fore cd back at many points for q mile along wide front. Numerous hand to hand encounters took place, the British using gunstocks, bayonets and knives on the foe, who unable to stand the strain broke and fell back on the main body.
 At all points where the allies have come to grips with the Teutons they have proven their mastery, man for man, and in many cases small bodies of the allied troops have routed large bodies of the enemy.
