POSTS A PRIZE CUP
FOR THE BOAT GLIB
Championship of Local Fleet of
Speed Motor Boats.

J. Ramser, the jeweler, has become
interested in the Island City Boating
association and wishing to give it a
boost has offered it silver loving
cup to be put up for a trophy in any
way that the club desires. In giving
the cup he makes but one condition
and that is that it be the object of
competition every year. He greatly
favors making it a prize for the tri-
cities rather than Rock Island alone
and this is favored also by the rep.
resentatives of the club to whom he
made the offer of the gift No definite
plans have been arranged as yet in
regard TO the accepting of the cup
but it will undoubtedly excite great
enthusiasm among the launch owners
of the club.
Members of the club who have heard
of the offer of the cup are already
discussing whether the race in whicl
the cup is to be the prize shall be {
handicap affair or free for all. Som,
of the optimistic ones are hoping tha
there will be other merchants who viii
put up something in the way of priz,
THAT would be suitable for Il time priZ,
: in a handicap race. The cup whicl
, Mr.. Ramser posts is beautiful silve
loving cup 12 inches in heighth and O
considerable value. He suggests il
giving it that the inscription "Tri.Cit
Motor Boat Trophy be engraved upo
lit and after that the names of tn
boats which win it each year.
