AMERICAN BOATS
WIN IN THE RACES
Cross Finish Line Ahead of
German ChallengerS
THE VIM is FIRST OVER
The caramba Is Second and the AUX
Was Third-The German Chal-
lenger Wannszee Does
the Best Work.

Marbehead, Mass, September 5.-Three
American boats sailed across the finish
line in today's race for the Roosevelt cup
well in advance of the three German chal-
lengers. The Vim designed by William
Gardner and owned by Commodore T. j.
Park of the American Yacht club Of New
York, won the contest through her bril-
liant windward work, coupled with splen-
did running qualities. Clifford Buckman,
her amateur skipper, sailed the craft
perfectly the second time over the course,
although he lost during the first time
by taking a long hitch inshore with the
tide.
The Caramba owned by C. II. w Foster,
was the second boat, finishing 81 seconds
behind Vim, while AUX winner of Mon
days race, was third to finish. % sec
onds behind the Caramba
OF the three German ehallengers the
Wannszee did the best work, but at that
not one of them seemed to have a chance
with the American yachts at any stage
of the race. The Wannszee finished the
race three minutes and twenty seconds
behind the Vim and was thlrty-seven sec
onds ahead of the Glueskauf ", the
fifth racer to finish
The Tllly VI, the pride of the Ger
man fleet and winner of nearly all the
races of the Sender Klasse at Kiel. was
the last boat across the finish line.
Tilly VI. had bad luck on the first
leg to windward, getting into all the soft
spots. She was an even nine minutes
bahind Of he 1f ha
The German yachtsmen expressed them
selves as much surprised at the results
of the two races that have been sailed,
but do not admit yet that their chances
of lifting the Roosevelt cup are gone.
They said they would be in tomorrow's
race and hoped to make a good show
ing.
On account of the light air just before
the start the crew of three of the Wann-
see left that yacht to reduce the weight
in the boat. All the other boats carried
three each. The three American boats
led the way at the end of the first round
of the course and were at the fore during
the remainder of the race. For a time it
looked as If the Wannszee was going to
reach the windward mark in the van, but
this was due to a slight shift in the wind
which held off the German craft nicely
Later fiuke in the breeze headed the
Germans off and favored the American
boats. On the spinnaker run home the
wind freshened considerably and the lit
tie craft had just enough breeze to take
them back over the windward course
with lee rails awash
The German yachts all did very we'll,
running before the wind. and why they
did not do better while beating, was a
question that the yachtsmen debated much
and could not explain With much dis
placement and at the same time carry
ing sail measuring the same as the Amer
leans 1t was figured that they would move
well in moderate breeze and easy sea
such as prevailed today.

The officials of the game shall be re-
fierce, two umpires and a lineman.
The line of scrimmage for each side is
an imaginary line parallel to the goal
line, and passing through that point of the
ball nearer the sides own goal line. 1t is
seen that there is a line of scrimmage for

Johns said that the case has no par
