NAVAL CADETS
New Seagoing Training Ship (Received Jan. 18, 5.5 p.m.) official Wireless Rugby, Jan. 17. The cruiser Frobisher, 0750 tons, left Chatham to-day for the West Indies as a new sea-going training ship for cadets of Dartmouth and public school entries. There were 113 cadets on board. During her three months’ cruise she will visit the Azores, Trinidad, Grenada, Barbados, Saint Lucia, Antigua, and Bermuda, returning to Chatham on April 7. The ship’s company is reduced to the bare minimum necessary for supervision of the working of the ship, so that the young officers will be needed as working hands. They will live and work as ordinary seamen.
