nearby Port of Calais.
The attack was launched soon
after the German artillery, sending
over salvoed of four shells at a
time, had ended a 15-minute bonn
bardment of the Dover shore.
Radio Stations Silent
In Germany the Berlin, Ham,
burg, Cologne and other radio sta

indicative that the Raj was busy
there, too.
British bombers went over in
heavy force, plunging through a
southwesterly gale and dropping
down suddenly from the rain clouds
hanging low ove the French side
Of the channel.
The resulting Examinations were
the most brilliant yet seen from the
Kent coast.
The Germans answered with
orange streams of anti-aircraft fire
pouring through the darkness; star
shells burst by the dozens and
searchlights swept the heavy sky.
Weather Dirty
The day had ended, after inter-
mittent downpours, with a brilliant
rainbow spanning the Dover Strait,
but the weather became dirtler aft

The assault upon Calais was one
of particular violence and seemed
to extend for several miles into the
French mainland, for the coast was
silhouetted against the glare OF ex-
ploding bombs.
1t was a resumption of one of the
mightiest British attacks yet made
during which bombers, Wednesday
night and early today, were de-
clared to have set off a fire every
minute upon the German-held coast

LONDON, Oct. 11.-Friday)-R
More than so London districts
were struck overnight as German
bombers swept in against a whist
ling gale and sowed deadly steel
and fire over all England, concen-
trating on this city and the great
west coastal port of Liverpool.

that the vigor Of the British anti

sharp-shooting of veteran gunners
kept the raiders high and cramped
their style.

much less severe than those of r.
