SHEpHEARD WINS The SOULS
DEFEATS LOCAL CRACKS IN LONG
ISLAND REGATTA.

TITUS Finishes Last in Field Of Five
--Ravensw God boat Club Four VIC
torio,n in Three Events-Dauntiess
and Crescent Crews Disqualified.
The twentieth annual regatta OF the Long
Island Amateur Rowing Association TOOK
place yesterday on Flushing Bay. The
course was a mile In length and the water
was rough. In the early part OF the pro-
gram there was strong breeze. which some
what modified as the day advanced. but the
tide was partly against the rowers In all the
events.
The race Of the day and the one which
attracted boatloads OF spectators to the
course was the senior sculls. with all the
local stars, Shepheard. Vesely. Hoben, Fues-
sci and Titus. entered. II was spirited
contest and one OF the best OF Its kind seen
In local waters In many years. Shepheard
OF the Seawanlakaa, the winner, WAS the
favOrite, and he justified the confidence re-
posed in him by the crowd. little after
the start he caught crab and was put out
OF his stroke for while. but when nv settled
to his work he sailed to the front and. pulling
a fine. long clean stroke. won with plenty to
spare.
Hoben the second man, showed great I'M
provement and with a little more racing
should be dangerous customer. Wesley
exhibited his usual dogged tenacity and Fues-
sci on account OF an injury TO his knee was not
in his best pace. Titus rowed in his usual
smooth style. but when 1t came to finish
he WAS not there. and with his teeth set and
digging with every ounce OF his little body he
brought UP the tail end OF the procession.
TIE credit OF a splendid days work rested
with The four OF the Ravenswood Is. {. They
showed the fruits Of George Lees coaching
by winning three frsts inside OF couple OF
hours and in brilliat fashion.
There we're two disqualifcations. When
the Dauntess had evidently the intermediate
four gig at their mercy their coxswain steered
them clean across the course and into the
Ravenswood.
