Paris.?When Yankee troops pushed into Roneheres, Boche snipers got busy from windows and other vantage points. The Yanks proceeded to get busy with the snipers. Two men whc did most effective work in cleaning out the Boche snipers were two Pennsyl vania squirrel hunters?Privates Harry Meeks and J. C. Titterington. Every time they glimpsed the smallest portion of a Hun they fired, and they seldom missed. It is estimated that these two men accounted for at least forty Germans. Just about noon they located three snipers in the belfry of a church just I under the cross. From this vantage the Boches were picking off American soldiers^ Meeks and Titterington got on the job immediately v by climbing to the roof of a nearby dwelling. Meeks saw the head of a Hun for just a second over the edge of the belfry. The bullet found its mark, leaving only two snipers. The two Yanks then began a fusillade of bullets, and five minutes later a white flag fluttered from the belfry. Soon the two surviving Huns came down on the jump yelling "kamerad." A 11111.
