LOYALIST VICTORY.
Lost Ground Regained by-
Vigorous Attack.
REBEL BOMB STRIKES SCHOOL
(Received 9.30 a.m.)
LONDON, September 20.
The Loyalists vigorously repulsed renewed attacks by the rebels at Fayon, and recaptured the lost ground and took 150 prisoners, says the Barcelona correspondent of the "Daily Telegraph."
Tens of thousands of men from the class aged 34 have joined the loyalist colours and begun training in order to provide ample reserves against General Franco.
Increased shipments of men and materials from Italy indicate the early -probability of heavier attacks by the rebels.
A message from Valencia states that 17 were killed and 56 wounded, mostly women and children, at Alcoy, 34 miles north of Alicante, when a bomb struck a school.
