BY LEON KAY

CAIRO, June 12.-Imperial ar
mored forces engaged Axis tanks
yesterday east Of Biz el Harmat.
which Is Is miles northeast Of
fallen Biz Hacheim, a British com
munique said today.
The communique said that de
tails of the fighting were not yet
available" there was nothing 10
report from other sectors. 1t said.
Apparently the enemy had begun
an effort to outfiank the imperial
line and take Tobruk on the Medi-
terranean, some 30 miles northeast
of Biz ell Harmat. They had been
expected to develop a threat to
Tobruk from the south and east.
having failed to break through
from the west and southwest.
STRENGTHEN LINES
The withdrawal from Biz
Hacheim, which occurred Wednes-
day night, should enable the i'm
perials to stiffen their front from
points east of Biz Hacheim toward
the coast.
As far as can be determined, the
enemy has been concentrating the
bulk OF his strength In triangle,
the southern apex OF which Is Biz
Hacheim, and thence extending
northward about 19 miles to
lamar and thence about II miles
TO the desert crossroads, Knights
bridge.
