The races for the British international
trophy which were postponed from Au-
| gust "a. S, and 26 on account of the
| great labor troubles, which tied up Great
Britains shipping facilities, thus making
1t impossible to get the English chal-
lengers across the Atlantic in time, will
be held tomorrow afternoon in Hunting
ton Bay, Long-Island Sound. under the
auspices of the Motorboat Club of
! America.
One OF the most popular entries. espe-
cially in local boating circles, is Rear
| Commodore BIackton's Viva, which was
| built In this city. 1t is reported that
in a trial spin not long ago the Viva
made fifty-seven miles an hour. which
| is remarkable speed. The Viva was put
overheard August II. and while she was
| shipped to Huntington Bay the following
day and could doubtless have entered the
| races starting August Is. she was in
better condition last Wednesday, when
| the trial races were held.
I This rearrangement of plans has ma
terially changed the programme for the
national motorboat carnival. Instead of
| continuing II for six days, the races
| proper will be compressed into three
days, except for the cruiser classes. but
| the carnival gains in that the interna-
! tional races become in a sense a portion
of it.
