The Communist poured 7.128
rounds of fire on U. N. position
in the 24 hour ended at 8 p.m.
Wednesday. That' five 'time the
Reds' normal volume in the pres
ent limited action phase of the

Half the shells broke ud an
Allied raid on a three-hill enemy
position near Korangpo on the
Western front. Heavy Cqmmunist
mortar and artillery barrages also
pounded two sectors east of the
once heavily-contested punchbowl
on the Eastern front.
Intensity of the Red fire didn't
match Allied peaks of up to 20,000
rounds In a single day,

U. N. assault troops had stormed
two of the hills near Korangpo
within three hours of their 3 a.m.
rttack. The third held out until

port in the attack on one hill and
U. N. troops assaulted with fixed
boyonets on another. The Reds
left 105 soldiers dead or wounded.
