Sieg fried line Heavy rench batteries the dis patches said were dropping large caliber shells on the west wall casements in an effort to blast German defenders from their po sitions in the heavily fortified zone German guns replied to the bombardment it was said but the rench declared the' nazi artil lery was failipg to make direct hits on advanced rench posi tions 1 Most of the artillery action was reported centered south of the German town of Saarbruecken and along the Lauter river where the Magiriot and Siegfried lines are closest Dispatches said Sunday night was comparatively quiet
