\ UNIQUE NAVAL TT[E LIABLE
 u OCCUR
(By Associated Press)

KoRITzA. Albania, Noy. sO-(By MaiD-A naval battle between French and German warships is imminent, which when it occurs, will not he re- corded in any official communique, though it will be in a way, one of the most unique naval engagements of the war.
 Lake Ochrida is large body of fresh water lying few miles north of here, at the point where Albania. Serbia and Macedonia touch. It is 40 miles long and 20 miles across, with towering mountains running around 1t. The north end of the lake is held by tho Germans. and the south end by the entente troops made a forward scene of the latest hard fighting when the entente trops made forward drive of thirty miles from Pagrodak, at the south end, to Padahoja far up toward the north end
 With the Germans holding the north end of the lake, they did not confine their operations to the land. A mini ature flotilla soon made it's appear ance with oil-burning launches about 15 feet long, each mounting one gun forward This mosquito fleet soon became real menace, for it darted to the south end of the lake, at night and bombed the small villages along the south shore, held by the French, Russians and Serbs. The headquart- CTS of General Tarnahoff. of the Rus sian division operating with General Sarrail, was in one of these villages.
 The French soon took steps to counteract this menace. A small steel craft, thirty feet long, was brought overland from the French fleet at Saloniki This mounted two guns, one forward and one aft. With it came a commander and crew of French sailors. This was soon fol lowed by a second 3O-foot boat mount ing two guns, with it's equipment of officers and crew.
 Thus two miniature fleets find themselves face to fac4 on Lake Och rida, with battle no4 far off. The French have the advantage of larger ships carrying more guns, but the Germans have the advahtaee in num- Der of craft. Their fotilla consist ing of six or seven .15-foot boats mounting one gun eacn.
 It seemed strange as we went along a mountain road today, to see the uni forms of French officers and sailors at point so remote from the sea. They were in a camion on the way to the naval base at the south end of the lake. The commander Lieutenant Du- toit, stopped for a moment and spoke enthusiastically of his little fleet
 Tn bringing the boats from Salon iki," he said, i've took out the en- gines so that the hulls weighed only three tons. This made reasonably easy going on the camions There was no mishap, the first boat is launched, with her engine in place and guns mounted, and the second will soon follow. And then, he added with a laugh, we'll see who will do the bombarding."
 When operations will begin is not certain, but plans are so far adyanc- ed that fight is looked for almost any time now. With such mosquito craft it might be considered a toy battle if it were not for the reality of the warfare with real naval boats manned by real sailors of the French and German navies, fighting with as much determination as on the deck
