SOVIET WAR FLEETS TO BE
AUGMENTED
Affairs At The
County Capital
Trotzky the Great Orderissuer Has issued One About Navy
[INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE] WASHINGTON. March 29. -The battle fleets of soviet Russia are to be strengthened Immediately, Leon Trotzky, chief of the soviet war council, has just issued orders for the rehabilitation of the Russian navy, according to diplomatic reports recoiled at the state depart merit today from Moscow. Warships which for months have laid rotting at their piers are to be re-conditioned and put into commission. Systematic rflOTt is to he made to re-enl!st the officers and men of the old czarist navy, many f whom are now in foreign lands. The real and immediate purpose
of Trotzky's a determination to re-' habilitate the navy is not entirely ciear. Apparently it is a -part of his Koncral plan for strengthening soviet Russia's power of -offense and defense, outlined in his recent ad
dress to the Red army. His announcement on the necessity for an efficient marine asserts that soviet Russia "must have powerful fleets for offensive pur pose." These fleets, however, must be ready for defensive work, incase "capitalism and the navies of capitalism make it necessary. " As now constituted, the soviet navy consists of nine battleships, four cruisers, three light cruisers, twenty-nine destroyers, seventeen torpedo boats, twelve submarines and numerous gunboats, trawlers and ice breakers. Many other ships of considerable size and power are tied up in various ports, some of them serving merely as dormitories for ."eamen and other -workmen. How many of these ships can be reconditioned, under Trotzky's' new order." is not known, but to whatever extent he succeeds, his naval strength as enumerated above will be increased by that much. The two most modern battleships In Trotzky's navy are the Petropavlovsk and the Sevastopol, mountins twelve 12-inch guns.

This announcement was made by the leader of the expedition, Raold Amundsen, intrepid Norwegian explorer, who arrived here today from Chrlstiania upon the Norwegian-American liner Stavangerfjord. The Amundsen expedition Is going to do all kinds of unprecedented things. Two airplanes will be taken along end aviators will make observations from the skies and possibly fly over the north pole. Amundsen Is going: to spend sev
eral weeks in New York before going
to Senttle, where his exploration shlp Maud is being outfitted for the
voyage. Lieut Oscar Omdal of the -Norwegian flying corps, who accompanied the explorer on the voyage over, will go to Mineola to Inspect machines ar.d select the best type for Arctic flying. Omdall is 26 years old and one-of the best aviators in Norway, a second aviator, Lieut. Dahl, will arrive later and join the party at Seattle. "She object of the expedition is purely scientific. The Amundsen party will try to drift through the Arctic spaces, taking from three to five years to cover the 2,000 to S,000 miles through the Polar seas. "We had a splendid voyage" said Explorer Amundsen, as he greeted reporters. Asked about his exploration' plans, he said: "The Maud, with ten men on board, will leave Seattle for the far north if nothing happens to interfere.

In any event we are taking enough provisions to lest seven years. Amundsen made a similar attempt once before, but failed. This time he is confident of success. He expects to emerge from the Arctic seas some where between Spitzbergen and Green land, which would man a trip of from 2,000 to 3,000 miles. Everything will be conducted on a scientific basis and all kinds of instruments will be taken along for observations. The Maud and both airplanes -will be equipped with wireless and radio telephones.

ROBERTSDALE BOYS' BATTLE
Like an echo from the hectic days of the latter 90's when men wore ample trousers. bowler hats and fierce moustachlos and held their obxlng contests in barns and toher shaded rendezcous removed from the prying eyes of the law, came this morning a letter to this department purporting to recount the illegitimate joys of the prize ring as provided in a series of fisticuffs staged by the Robertsdale's Boys' Club. The place was not named. The feature battle of the evening seems to have been that in which the light-heavy weight championship was at stake. One doesn't know exactly what championship is meant. Probably of Robertsdale. though. Anyway, the fight went only four rounds. Then O. Thiel had his finger bitten or broken or cut or something because the fight stopped. His opponent. declared the winner, was Edson Buchler. The first three rounds were punch-for-punch affairs. H. Theobal and William Collard fought two rounds then the contest was stopped by the referee "because Theobal was too good for Coliard. who had put gloves on for the first time." THE "DOUBLE ROUND" But the best stunt of the evening came in the second event when for the first time in the history of ring sports, two fighters agreed to repeat the third round of their fight for the edification of the furs after one of the boxers had been declared to have committed a foul. This was in the Bud Buehler-Johnny Coughlin fight. John copped the first round; Bud the second. The

The ax in expected to wield shortly on the squad, getting it down to about twenty. Fair weather will see several practice games this week and should go a long ways toward getting the baseball nine into condition.
