dore Schroeder carried off the trophy
last winter, he will make every effort
to render his title clear ut the March
races. Other boats with great speed
records will be seen in opposition to
the Dixie. and some OF them will no
doubt make the contest an exciting
and interesting one.
The Palm Beach management has
recently had n man In Paris and Lon.
