has been no trouble whatever expert
enced with gas tar in the vicinity of the
new boathouse. as was the case when
distance below the Aqueduct bridge. In
fact, the stretch of water in front of

the Aqueduct bridge, which is not pol
luted by gas tar.
In addition to the annual regatta May
so. the Corinthians will arrange races for

lingwood Sanford. treasurer, Swift Boy
kin; measurer Fred de B. Weston: assist
ant measurer Oliver NJ Bright: board Of
directors, George II. Bright, Frank III.

Already many of the members have
laid plans for extended cruises during the
heated term among them Larz Anderson.
II. A. Seymour. ex-Commodore Grier. Fred
Weston Commodore Hewins. Vice Com
modore r. l.. Gait and Justice Dan Thew
Wright.
Commodore Hewins announces that he
will sail from Washington July ] In his
keel. centerboard yawl Nenemoosha, and
expects to go far east as Prospect Is
land, Me-. where he will leave his boat
in care Of his brother, who will make
return trip to Washington next year.
Larz Anderson. who owns the largest
boat In the Capital Clubs fleet. and steam
err Roxana, which is 116 feet in length,
and who usually spends the summer
months between Boston and Maine, may
take the same trip this year.
Ex-Commodore Grier. in his bugeye
Javeline anticipates cruise to Long Is
land sound. and may extend his jaunt as
EAR as Newport. r. l.
Fred Weston. who last summer covered
the route of Mr.. Grier's contemplated
trip, looks forward to the same program.
H. A. Seymour will sail his auxiliary
yawl Sea Belle to Indian Head Harbor.
Long Island sound. There he will make
headquarters and spend until fall cruising
along the sound.
Justice Wright will probably spend his
vacation on one of the small inlets be-
tween the Chesapeake and Delaware
bays on the Virginia side.
Tt is assured that the Capital yachts
men will hold club races over the course
from Marshall Hall to Glymont and re-
turn on the Fourth of July and Labor
day. but it is doubtful IL the July and
August club cruises will be held this sum
mer, because of the large number of
owners who contemplate extended cruises |
On May 30. while the Corinthians are
holding forth at Marshall Hall the Capt.
tails will be enjoying their annual regatta |
the boats will assemble at the clubhouse
at the foot of 9th street and go down
the river Friday evening. May - going
to ChickamuXen creek about six miles
below Indian Head. on the Maryland
side. and the following day will settle
course. starting from Chick
