The largest fleet of the season entered
IN the various classes of the fifth weekly
regatta of the White Bear Yacht club
yesterday afternoon. Eighteen boats lined
up at the various starts. and the days
sport was of the best The boats We're
divided into four classes including the
challenger class. Cups We're sailed for by
class \ and the new and old B classes
The winners of the day were Seeress,
Capt. Evan Rees in class A; Robin Hood,
Capt. Leslie Murray. in class B, new;
AIonedo. Captain Shepard. in class B, old,
and Delta. Capt c. NJ. GIiggs, in the chal-'
Ienger class.
InasmUch as Seeress Won the first leg
on the COmmodore's cup. sailed for again
yesterday on June II, she will now be en-
titled to possession thereof for another
year Seeress also won the Commodore's
cup last season. The legs on the White
Bear trophy thus far sailed have been
Won by Wanderer and Robin Hood, one
each and Monedo takes the second leg
on the Club cup, dividing honors with
Avis.
A steady eight knot breeze was blowing
from the south when Starter TarboX fired
the preparatory gun, and held for half the
race, when if went down several points.
The boats all finished well within the time
limit. however.
Delta. one OF the Seawanhaka challeng-
ers. Won splendid race over Alpha in the
pest time OF the season, making the eight
Knot course in 1:14:20 beating the Alpha
by , minutes and 81 seconds. This will
probably be the last race between the
challeagers on White Bear. unless the
committee should decide to have another
race on the Fourth. This is hardly likely.
as the time Is getting rather short. and it
Is necessary TO hold additional trials on
Lake Winnebago a Oshkosh. where other
boats are now assembled and waiting for

now likely that the club may send but one
boat and that boat viii be Delta.

the hands OF Delta 4 few days ago has

Inland Lake Yachting association. and she
Will undoubtedly be counted on to make
good showing. as she viii he hard boat

White Bear men who are looking ahead
to the inland lake meeting. are reckoning
on Alpha as the most likely reDreSe 1lta
tive Alpha should do well in Lake Win

great beam should send her along in a.
satisfactory manner.
