vailed in the %fifties, when the first
race of the America" was sailed,
can hardly he held satisfactory today.
Particularly that nj rule which COM
mands that the racing vessel shall be
built in the port Of the challenger
and sailed across the cea to the
port of race, is a questionable pro-
vision. Three masted schooners of
the fifties were different tubs from
the slim racing machines which are
the yachts of today. The cup defend
er has all the advantage with it, and
t is small wonder that the ~challengers
are complaining that the conditions
of the race and not the race itself
keep the honor and the cup with
America.
The New York yacht club would
meet the desires of the true sport
ing instinct the country over il they
would modify the rules governing
this race, so that the challenger had
an equal show with the defender. AS
matters were going, before the Swed-
ish announcement, it looked as
though yacht racing were to be held
up. This new factor should result
in new conditions. Let us have not
one challenger, the English or the
Swedish, but let us have both Eng.
fish and Swedish, and German OF
Dutch, too. There is sufficient amity
and rivalry among the nations fol

Viking Challenge.

The yacht race promises to become
sport indeed and royal sport, If the
descendants Of the old Vikings chal-
lenge the American cup holders. The
Royal Swedish Yacht club proposes
to enter the races as it is laid down
in the rules of the New York Yacht
club, provided those rules are pos
sible for a Swedish-built vessel. The
Swedish yachtmen are of royal afil-
iation, King Oscar being an honor
airy admiral in the club, and the lead
ing men Of. the royal family occupy
ing correlative positions. But the
club is not altogether royal, nor is
the challenge to be merely the rivaly
between two yacht clubs as clubs.
A subscription is to be opened in
Sweden for the funds to build this
boat and to meet the regulations, so
that the race will be practically a
contest between the Swedish people
and the American people, a contest
in the genius of boat building the
skill of crews, and in the patriotic
devotion of the people.
Suddenly, this race, which has be-
come tainted wiz. commercial-very
possibly through no governing in
t~ention of Sir Thomas Upton, though
he could not oblivious to the advan-
tage-assumes most romantic and
thrilling possibilities. The Vikings
navigated the northern seas, far be-
yond European waters, before the
English or the Dutch, later masters
of the sea, in more developed ships,
attempted to leave the coast line.
And they sailed bodily to America in
Trailer ships than any racing craft
which the Royal Yacht club will at
tempt to bring over. The Norsemen
had a greater sea-going genius than
Mediterranean people could ever
boast, and to contemplate this race
is to see the daring deeds of Morse
history living again before the eye.
If the rules are satisfactory, the
challenge will be sent. The rules
should he satisfactory. If they are
not. they should be changed. We say
i this, not as the desire of Minnesota
with its strong Scandinavian leaning
4 to see a race between America and
Sweden. but from q belief in sport
which is as free as possible within
I definite lines. The recent refusal te
iaccept a challenge from Upton unde,
modification of the rules, has sub
Iiected these rules TO a close criticism
And certainly regulations which pre-
