IN NEW QUARTERS.
Corinthian Boat Club Transfers to
the Virginia Shore.

The harbor at the foot Of 9Th street
southwest looks deserted since the men,
bers of the Corinthian Yacht Club moved
their boats from the old quarters Of the
club to the new anchorage on the Vir-
ginia side of the river. The new station
is located between the railway and the
Highway bridges. The moving of the
boats took place Sunday. The owners
took them out for runs on the river and
instead of going to the old berthing
places carried their craft to the new
home and anchored them. Yesterday
morning thirty or more boats were riding
at anchor in the river in front of the
clubhouse.
The work of placing the cement under
pinning at the clubhouse has been started
and will it is expected, be completed
this week. Two walkways have been
built from the shore out to water deep
enough for the launches. so as to afford
an easy means fgetting in and out of
the boats.
The managers of the Corinthians have
prepared plans that will make the new
home of the cub one of the prettiest
spots in the vicinity of the city.
