 The battle, steadily intensifying was described as battle of mate riel" as the imperials struck simul- taneously in all sectors and forced the Axis forces to scatter their strength along the wide front against the threat of British break-through.
 Late today the British still held the initiative, according to military advices reaching Cairo, and were consolidating their positions in the face of the enemy's desperate but unsuccessful counter attacks.
 Armored units and artillery of both sides were in action as the British hammered the Axis en- trenched positions.
 In the northern sector the fight ing centered around three strategic ridges = Tel El-Eisa, Makh-Khad and Mateiriya.
 After being driven westward from Tel Fl Elsa ridge by Axis ratillery yesterday, Australian troops reor- ganized, attacked again and won possession of the entire ridge.
