YACHTING.

The statement by William Gardner the we'll
known yacht designer, in the current number of
Yachting" that the uniform rule Of measure
done before the elimination Of freak boats is as
mooted question. The new rating rule has met
with general approval and has done much TO
insure more wholesome and seaworthy type Of
yacht. while discouraging, if not preventing, tho
building Of freakish racing machines. It seems.
however, that designers have loophoIe If they
should see fit TO take advantage OF It. In com
menting editorially or the subject Yachting"
says:
AS heartily as Yachting" approves Of the uni
form rule of measurement, it feels in common
with every lover Of yacht racing a sport. that
further scrutiny of the rating and "A study
Of its results in all their varying aspects can
result in nothing but good. Both in spirit and
intent, the measurement rules of 1905 made for
the wholesome racing boat. and the craft
evolved last year, as result of the code
framed the rule. Since the end Of the last racing
season, however, there has been a certain under
current Of criticism. One hears Of opportunities
for designers to thWart the spirit If the
letter OF the new rules, and there hints that
boats could be produced only a little less freak
ish than those designed under the old rules II
is even openly said that by "crowding on" of dis
placement and sail area much harm could he

like TO be among the first to call for a new rule
which would make impossible the turning out
of the demoralizing racing machine. It
must be noted, however that from the present
trend Of opinion il seems unlikely that scantling
restrictions can ever be imposed Nor should II
be necessary, if the designers will but observe
the present rule in the spirit IN which II was

AUTOMOBHING.

The appointment Of Frank B. Hover, Vice
president Of the Automobile Club Of Buffalo as
chairman OF the runs and tours committee OF
the American Automobile Association, has met
with the general approval Of motorists. Mr.
Hover has made close study OF the conditions
Of automobile touring, and it is safe to say
THAT practical results viii mark the work Of the
committee this year. From what can be learned,
Mr.. Hover and his committee are in sympathy
with the policy, outlined by President Hotch-
kiss, Of the American Automobile Association, in
his inaugural address. He called attention then
90 the growing need for more road signs. the
establishment Of an information bureau con-
corning roads. laws, hotels maps and routes and
new rules TO regulate the contest for the Gid
den Trophy. All this Will take time and the
present committee can hardly hope 10 do more
than make q beginning. A good beginning
however, Will go long way toward ultimate
success in improving present conditions for
touring, toward which the vast majority of
motorists are leaning, and in which they are
now taking far more interest than IN racing
The proper distribution and placing of road
signs is not the least important part of the
work Next 10 good roads the tourists want
road signs. The various state associations and
The Automobile Club Of America have 6pne
much IN this line, but the touring commit
Tee can take up the work and carry il along TO
q point where ii should compare faVorably with
that in France. If the committee follows the
suggestion Of President Hotchkiss il will adopt
@ metal distance sign and a code Of roadside
directions. and furnish samples 10 each state
association and club with a circular Indicating
the territory and roads allotted to each, as well
action.
