SAIGON (AP) A fierce U.S. Marine battle with North Vietnamese troops, Communist attacks up and down the country on provincial capitals and refugee hamlets, and heavy air strikes against North Vietnam that cost three American warplanes were reported today. U.S. Marines charged through a screen of American tear gas to take a heavily fortified village which the North Viet-ye Xpesanx pauopuBqB asauisu er nearly 24 hours of hard fight ing and bombardment in the coastal lowlands 27 miles south of Da Nang. The Marines reported 22 of their men killed and 58 wounded, most of them in a savage machine-gun crossfire from the enemy.

The Leathernecks said they found 36 enemy bodies, but terrified villagers said the retreating Communists carried away at least two dozen of their dead. New Ferocity Communist units also showed inTreased ferocity in meeting probes in which 30 Americans and 78 of the enemy were reported-killed at Loc Ninh, 71 miles northwest of Saigon, and near Dak To, in the central highlands. The stepped up Communist activity and in Red oppostion to U.S. search operations appeared to indicate that the Communists are not being as elusive as they have been and may be moving into positions for new thrusts on several fronts now that the monsoon rains have moved north. Intelligence reports indicate there are at least five Communist divisions in central Vietnam that may be poised for new offensives.

In the Mekong Delta, the Viet Cong launched a series of mortar and ground assaults before dawn on an airfield, a South Vietnamese special forces company with American advisers and the provincial capital of Cao Lanh. Fifty mortar rounds slammed into the provincial capital, killing two children and an adult and wounding 68 others. Rail Link Hit In the air.

Navy planes hit the An Ninh Ngoai shipyard and repair facility 12 miles northwest of Haiphong, apparently for the first time. The Marine battle below Da Nang began Monday with a helicopter assault into a valley to kick off Operation Essex but the U.S. Command kept the drive under security wraps until today. AP correspondent Bob Ohman, with units of the Marine Regiment in the assault, reported two platoons were pinned down in rice paddies in a crossfire from enemy machine guns shortly after the landing.

The Leathernecks called for tear gas from U.S. fighter-jets at dusk Monday so they could retrieve their dead and wounded. There was sporadic fighting throughout the night, and the village wa.s pounded with artillery, bombs and napalm. Tuesday morning the village was again sprayed with tear gas and the Marines pushed in to find that the enemy had fled during the night.
