A communique states : Twenty thousand Austrians attacked our lines on the Asiago Plateau between Mount Pari and Mount .Lemerle, but broke down, the enemy leaving piles of dead. The enemy at night attacked in the Lagarina Valley, but fled precipitately at daybreak after three hours' severe hand-to-hand fighting. Our line on the Adige-Breya is firmly held: The enemy's costly efforts to break it failed.
