and then returned to it from the op-
posite direction. AS the Reliance was
then being towed through the fleet. the
yachts ensign hattered through her
truck and spreaders in celebr alton of
the victory. Shamrock III. did not
cross the finish line. As often said of
the race since the America won the
trophy, there was no second.
After one tluke the Reliance won the

A week ago today the first attempt to
sail the third race failed and attempts
have been made every day this week.
On these occasions the Reliance led
the Shamrock to the finish line by two

half hours.
Today's victory means tha, the cup
