The Grays gave the Skeeters something
TO think over yesterday at Rocky Point,

them generally for nine innings and came

YACHTS OUT
AT SEA

The fve small yachts that started from
New Rochelle on Saturday IN the race
around Montauk Point and the lightship
on Cape May for the Brooklyn Yacht
club challenge cup. had a favorable and
Ian unfavorable gift from the elements
The wind shifted around 20
the south-southeast and smoothed the
rufrled seas that the nor -easter had
kicked up. but II made a beat for them
down the coast. There is little hope now
that they will finish in Gravesend bay
by tomorrow night. but the friends OF
those on board are little worried over the
craft, as the sea has moderated.
The yachts al carry numbers on their
sails 10 distinguish them in the daytime,
and they burn Coston lights at night The
numbers are: 1. Lila. 2. Mopsa 3. Tam
erlane: 4. Guide; 8, Cygnet. The night sig
mails are: White, Lila. green. Mopsa
red Tamerlane; red and white, Guide;
red and green, Cygnet
Because OF being the largest boat In the
race the Lila has TO give a handicap 20
all the others She allows IS minutes and
4 seconds 10 the Guide. Both the Tam
eriane and the Cygnet get an allowance
OF 81 minutes and l3 seconds, while the
little Mopeo receives hours 30 minutes

ardous risk yesterday. when the yachts

schooner Bervtss was timed Just before s
o'clock. and the sloop Doris few min
utes after that hour The rest OF the fleet
were not timed at all, but eight others
reached the harbor before sunset.
The only ones which had not appeared

The action OF Mr.. Hitchcock IN making

Mr. Dopester Is one OF the most enthu-
elastic fans the Grays has and his smil-

To be heard at every game which the team
plays at Melrose park and Rocky Point.

after Newark had been trimmed for two

indications are true then their young

knocks as the team has been getting right
along. both from the fans and from the
umpires7 Now / am handy with the ham
mer upon occasion, as the next one but
! cannot begin TO fay the team as some
OF those whom j have heard. Take for
instance Brodie. There is n man who is
leading the team in hitting and has not
been out OF the 300 class since the race
began. In addition TO that he IL working
among the hardest and Is always I'm the

the baseball writer's seem continually 10

TO belittle his work.
Another man that comes In for abuse
which is undeserved. Is Poland. There is
a player who works harder than any
other man on the team barring the man
ager and yet he gets II on all sides. Let
him make a misplay and all fandom is
down ON him. This, too. despite the fact
that he Is not a third baseman and Is out
