SAILORS WILL RACE
Contest Between Local Naval Re-
serves and Man o'-War's Men.
4 THANKSGIVING. DAY REGATTA
Cutters and WhaIeboats to Be
Pulled Over Three-MiIe Course.
EV ENT OF Int TERE S L

The members of the local Naval Reserves
have started an athletic association and
will brush up against the regular man-of-
wars men on Thanksgiving day in a re-
gatta and several boat races. The Dol
phin's crew and the seamen gunners' class
of the navy yard have accepted the chal-
lenge of the local reserves to race in cut
ters and whaleboats over a three-nlile
course, and on Thanksgiving day the
strength of these crews will be tested. All,
however, are confident of victory, and
every effort Is being made to bring the vari-
Gus crews up to the pink of perfection.
While the Dolphin and navy yard crews
have much advantage over the reserves in
being able to practice by day, yet the latter
are taking the best care of themselves and
are out In their boats every night the
weather will permit.
Captain Hains has given every assistance
in the encouragement of the naval battal-
ions crew, as he believes such contests
largely increase the interest of both officers
and men in the duties pertaining to sea
life.
The following acting petty officers and
ratings have been made by the commander,
and no doubt these will be made permanent
as soon as the necessary warrants can be
iiileu Out anu SlSHeu AIIioIS THESE nearly
ali of the petty officers and seamen
have had extensive practice afloat, and it
speaks well for the future of the naval bat
talon that SO large percentage are men
of extended sea experience:
officers and Men.
