on the White Bear club. as the Mahto

The defeat Of the Akela in yester-

There was no lack of interest in yes
terdays races. On the contrary, a
much larger crowd of Twin City people
went out to witness the afternoon
events than the day before.
The result of yesterdays contest at
least insures the White Bear club of a
victory In the twenty-foot class, as the
Mahto beat her fast rival, Hazard, the
Minnetonka craft. by over six minutes.
making the second victory in as many
days in field representing four states.
While thoroughly outsailed in the
contest between the first-class sloops
yesterday, the Akela was greatly han
dicapped by the additional sail area
carried by the Hoodlum, included in
her huge spinnaker, for which, how
ever, the Akela was given time al
loWance Of two minutes and fifty-seVen
seconds. The advantage which the
Hoodlum had in the light wind and her
huge Sp1nnaker sail won for her the
second race in the championship series
to determine the ownership of the
handsome trophies hung up by the
lnterlake association.
But the programme at the lake was
not wholly given up to the contests be-
tween the crews of the competing craft.
