ON REDUCED SCALE
AXIS ATTACKS ON MALTA. SEVERAL ENEMY PLANES SHOT DOWN. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 11.10 a.m.) RUGBY, February 15. An agency message from Malta says enemy air activity was on a reduced scale during Saturday. A final report of Friday’s raid revealed that the antiaircraft defences shot down into the sea three enemy aircraft—a Junkers 88 bombers, a Junkers 87 dive-bomber and a Messerschmitt 109 fighter. Another Junkers 88 was probably destroyed, as it was last seen with its engine on fire. _____________
