day, there was hope that It would con-
tinue to-day and give the third contest
between the yachts some semblance to
a. race III
It is somewhat singular that in but
few of the preliminary races and cup con-
tests for eight years has the wind been
Of more than ordinary strength and that
the oldest Of three boats, the Columbia,
has never raced in a breeze Of more than
twenty knots velocity. The strong south
westers such as well nigh wrecked the
Independence while rounding Cape Cod
two years ago, and which sent the New
York Yacht club fleet from Newport to
incetown last August, have been absent
when the time came to race the cup
yachts. S
The day from spectators standpoint
was delightful. The sky was clear, the
air cool and invigorating and there were
no indications Of rain from any quarter.
With the wind from the southeast it
looked as II the committee would send the
yachts over a small equatorial triangu-
lar course Of fifteen miles with a broad
reach across the sound to Great Captains
island, a beat Of six miles to Oyster bay
and another reach to the finish. With
SO little windward work and so much
reaching 1t looked like good day for the
Reliance. #z
oLlll Tile loyal dQHSTentS TO1 the OlQer
yachts seemed satisfied altho several
frankly admitted their desire to see the
boats sent away on good long thresh to
windward and a run home with spinnak-
ers set, conditions which have not OBJ
tanned SO far this season.
AT 8 o'clock the Columbia and the Con-
stitution lay moored in Hampstead harbor
1 while the Reliance was at anchorage at
City Island The crew Of the Constitu-
4 TDA ooy o$% ly$o
before o'clock the head sails were sent
a1oft in stops. The CoIumbia.s crew were
not far behind that Of her competitor and
q lively brush ensued between them in
hosting the great mainsails. The Col
umbia's crew won out by,a few minutes.
i time. ss
The forenoon was well advanced when
the first OF the; excursion fleet appeared
beyond Execution Rock. About the same
| time the Reliance was observed near the
shore Of the mainland under sail. Soon
| the excursion fleet began to appear In
larger numbers, and some lively bursts
OF speed were made by the big steam
/ yachts In their rush for advantageous po-
isftions at the starting line Following
1 these were long lire Of small sailing
craft and the regatta committee.s boat
j the Priyateer.
The wind increased as the morning ad
Evanced and at 10 o'clock had freshened to
nine knots
At 1920 there was every indication thai
the race would start on time and finish
AIearly in the afternoon. The wind was
lfreshening rapidly and was hauling around
to a point west OF south, SO that there
was some doubt Of the course to be sailed
4 All three OF the yachts were ready to &c,
under way before II o'clock and at about
the same time the tug with the turning
