The left wing of the Greek army, said a spokesman in Athens, is con- tinuing itg advance towards Chimara, costal town on the Adriatie 20 miles north of Sante Quaranti. Further to the right the Italians at some places put up a very still resistance before they were anally dislodged from their positions with heavy losses.

The Italians. employed the crack Alpine Corps in keen fighting in the coastal sector round Tepelini where a coluncl is understood to have been killed and many of his men taken prisoner.

The Greek troops, taking advani- age of the Italian retreat from Argyro-Castron, have advanced along the hills bordering the Drinos valley and are now approaching Tepelini.

On the northern front snow is re- ported to be three feet deep, and in this sector the Greek advance has been slowed up.

Greek successes here are regarded as satisfactory in view of the fact that the Walians Bung most of their latest reinforcements into this sector.
