Of the yachts sailed the wrong course The
first leg of the course was to be eight
miles long, the turning point being off
stamford Conn. The yachtsmen of the
Riverside Club were having a race on the
sound. They set their turning mark right
on the course that the Columbia and De-
fender were to sail over, but only four
miles from their starting point

We are very we'll satisfied with IT all

The regatta committee say that the
event will be considered as a race, and
Commodore Postley will probably award
the cup to the Columbia.
