chaIIengers Not Ready
None Of the challengers will be in shape
10 race tomorrow, but three of them win
De under sail by next Saturday. although
they will not participate in the races.
Inc committee originally placed an or
ger 1or three boats, one with Johnson,
one with Amundson and the other with
Jones & Laborde, OF Oshkosh DR.
Welch's design was later accepted and
DIngle was given the order for the work
Afterwards another boat was decided uD-
on, for which Johnson also received the
order, ana during the past week the COM
mittee decided on a sixth boat, which
owing to the latenesS Of the season. was
turned over to Jones e Laborde Of Osh-
kosh, as the boat would not be needed
as early as the others, and it was de-
sirabie to have two boats in Winnebago
waters. 1t is not likely that the number
will be further increased
The sixth boat is from design by Bur
CESS q Packard, of New York who de-
signed the Kolutoo for the Manchester
Yacht club, and which was defeated bv
wanhaka cup last season. The design
which Burgess & Packard have submitted
while entirely original shows some sim
ilarity to the lines of ThorelIa H. Her
freeboard viii be greater however, and
she viii be of wider beam. There are
also other points about the new boat
which differ materially from the lines of
last years defender
DR.. Welch will sail the boat which he
designed and have as crew Henry Mer-
riil, Carl Schuneman and Leavitt Cor
ming.
L. P. ordway win have T. L. Wann and
his two sons.
c. NJ. Griggs will have John johnson,
Carl Drake and Roger Shepard.
Minnetonka a Boat.
In addition to the four challengers on
White Bear there will be the boat owned
bv the Fry Bros. who will provide their
own crew, and the boat which will come
from Minnetonka, built by Andrew Peter
son for the Loudon Bros. This makes
six boats which will enter the trial races
on White Bear, commencing Monday,
June 13, and continuing throughout the
week. The Minnetonka men are endeav-
oring to secure Billy Peet, of Mime
apolis. to handle the tiuer.
The committee has decided on the fol-
