Three Os U.S. Servicemen Die In Red Battle SAIGON (UPD—Three American servicemen were killed today as Communist Viet Cong guerrillas drove Vietnamese government forces from an outpost 125 miles southwest of Saigon. The victims were two officers and an enlisted man—the only Americans at the post. Their names were withheld pending notification of next of kin. An American spokesman said a pjatoon of about 40 rebels attacked the post in pre-dawn darkness. They took over the installation, killing nine government soldiers and wounding ten others. The three men killed in the outpost action today brought to 229 the number of Americans killed in action in Viet Nam since January, 1961. Another 98 Ifgve been killed in noncombat Hit-Run Victim Is 1,288th Fatality By United Press International The Indiana 1964 traffic death toll climbed to 1,288 today compared with 1,219 a year ago with the death of a hit-run victim, Thomas J.

incidents, bringing the total American losses here to 326 in that period. At the same time, the spokesman disclosed that the Communists had launched their first all-out conventional attack, in the area of the district capital of An Lao, 300 miles north of Saigon. The siege began Monday. “A de ermined fight still continued” this afternoon, the spokesman said. Reinforcements had not been able to reach the village. U.S. helicopter pilots were reported flying rescue missions in enemy fire so dense that one aircraft was hit 11 times in one mission. Returning pilots reported seeing three burning armored vehicles in the ranks of the hardpressed relief column and a«& that the Viet ’ Cong were pressing the at'ack in the open in broad daylight—a rare event. The rugged terrain favored a Communist assault. It obviates the government’s advantages in air power and mobility. It was Ihe first battle within memory where the ■ Communists had pressed an attack for a sustained time, rather than making a hit-and-run assault. At Dat Do, 45 miles east of Saigon; a handful of government milifiamen was reported to have driven off a battalion of Viet Cong raiders in vicious, close-in combat early today. s Indiana Man Killed In Hunting Accident SCOTTSBURG, Ind.
