was sailed today over a course of Il.
miles to windward and return, between
the English challenger Valkyrie Ill.
and the American defender, of that
name, was won fairly and squarely by
the Defender, but it did look for a con-
siderable period in the early part OF
the race as though the English boat
was the better, and would cross the
finishing line first.
The Defender crossed the line 6
minutes and 40 seconds ahead of the
Valkyrie, corrected time.

Remarkable Jump Of the Pen an

One of the most surprising innings
during the entire bowling season was
the two victories won by the Pen and
Pencils over the Providents last
night. The games were played on

close enough TO be interesting. Hand

tied with Capt. Hervey for second
place in the individual race, made the
same number Of pins that his oppo-
nent made this week. 295. This pulled
down the average of each player, but
IIeryey loses a fraction less from the
fact that he played two games more
than Handlan. Hervey finished sec
ond. with O'Neill two pins ahead.

scores. The score:
