AUSTRALIAN CRUISER
MYSTERY REGARDING MOVEMENTS GUNNERY AND SPEED EXERCISES. United Press Assn.—Elec. Tel. Copyright. (Received Sept. 26, 3.0 p.m.) LONDON, Sept. 25. A Sun-llerald service message says nothing is known regarding Australian rumours that the cruiser Australia is returning to Australia, which is thought unlikely. On the contrary the cruiser is probably proceeding to Greek ports, joining the First Cruiser Squadron in accordance with the original programme, where lliere is excellent opportunity for gunnery and speed exercises-under emergency conditions.
The Admiralty’s latest report is that the Australia arrived at Alexandria on September 20. The warships’ daily movements are not disclosed during the present International -situation. ■ •
