German YaChtSmen Are
Generous to Americans.
President HadIey 10 Help Stamp
Out Professionalism.
Date For This Years Vanderbilt Cup
Race Not Yet Set.

BUSton, May 10LAdmiral Darandon,
chairman of the Imperial Yacht Club
special committee on the German meri-
can match for Sender boats to be sailed
at I<!cl in August has forwarded to the
Eastern Yacht Club detailed informa ton
concerning the weather at Kiel in the
month OF August for the benefit of the
Americans WHO are to sail in the match.
This information which comes in the
form Of data from the imperial observa-
tory at Kicl. is much appreciated by the
yachtsmen who are building boats for the
class here. Its receipt marks a courtesy
not hitherto common in international
Faces.
ADMIRAL Baraudon's data show that the
Americans must 20 prepared for strong
brceztS and short. sharp seas and that
their boats mast be rugged heavier than
for sailing eff Marb!rhcad, where IT,"
trials are 10 be held il June TO select the
three American competitors.
In the races here last summer for thu
Roosevelt cup the wind but once exceed
ed Il velocity of % miles an hour ana then
Only i'll a %quall.
According to the German figures the
anemCgralh at the royal observatory at
kiel showed an average N:nd Of moro
than 20 miles an hour throughout the
month Of August last year ana in fact
fer the last three years.
As tie wind on kicl harbor is consider
ably stronger than at III" royal obse!Va-
tory the average velocity there for tn
month could not have been less than
twenty four miles an hour
1II Of win forces Nv lnIlls AT thR
observatory shows that the breeze aver
ages strongest between noon and )
o'clock, the hours in which the internal
tional match Will be sailed. In the week
of August 15-2l. when the match will Is
sailed. brcezes stronger than the average
for the month may be expected between
l. and ;, according to the official tables
Last year the average for that week in
the hours named was not far from thirty
miles an hour. Such Il wind on this side
of the Atlantic would he thought a gale
for lightly built small boats on shoal
courses.
Tho German tables are expressed by
numbers on the BCauford scale. in which
Il light breeze is set down as No. ,, +
knots or less; a gentle breeze as No. ..
is knots; a moderate breeze as No. t. %
knots or less; a fresh breeze as No. j. Is
knots or less, and a strong breeze us No

\ chart of winds for each hour fer the
month Of August shows more No. 3. No
and No. ) breezcs than any other with
an occasional record of Nc. 6. 0: up to
thrty-four miles an hour velocity.
As tn: water outside Kiel harbOr is
shallow the sea is short and steep, and as
the harbor is q funnel shaped inlet there
is a lively cross sea. caused by its con-
verginS shores.
Hclmsmen accustomed to the deep
waters ana open courses oft MarhlchcaI
will here encounter conditions entirely
now. Should they win the credit to
American yachting will be enhanced.
