WASHINGTON, Oct. 23—{AV-A
brief engagement between a big
naval patrol bomber and a Japanese
bomber plane off the Komandorski
islands in the north Pacific was re-
ported by the navy today.
The navy Catalina patrol plane,
the Navy said, engaged a Japanese
Mitsubishi medium bomber yester-
day afternoon 135 miles west-north-
west of Attu island.
The location would put the en-
gagement southwest of the Koman-
dorskie. which are Russian Islands
190 miles from Attu.
Both planes scored hits, but nei-
ther was shot down in the short
engagement. The navy added that
the patrol bomber suffered no cas-
ualties to personnel and no mater-
ial damage In the brief engagement.
The area of the air fight is near
that In which a surface action was
fought with Japanese warships last
March when an American naval
force engaged two heavy Japanese
cruisers, two light cruisers, six des-
troyers and two transports. In that
battle, fought at long range for three
and a half hours, two Japanese
heavy cruisers end one of the enemy
light cruisers were damaged Minor
damage was sustained by the U
8. vessels.
