Festivities Opened the Season for
the Pacific Yacht

The Tugs Fearless and Vigilant and
Five Launches Garry Guests
to SauSalito.

at Sausalito when the tug Fearless, bear
ing a host of invited guests to the ball
which opens the season for the Pacific
Yacht Club, arrived at the little wharf in
Sausalito.
The whole scene, from the cottages
perched picturesquely upon the hillside to
the pleasure vessel anchored in the har-
Dor, was one red glare. Skyrockets added
to the brilliancy of the scene, and the
booming of cannon gave the element of
excitement.

Kiers Cynthia, Will Powning's Wailele
