starting line, differ on the question of ap-
peal from race decision.
The eorinthian Yacht Clubs racing rule
No. Is contains provision that II a yacht
owner is not satisfied with the interpreta-
tion of the rules by the regatta commit
tee, he may appeal to special meeting
of the club, provided that flag officers
of the club certify that there are reason
able grounds upon which to base such an
appeal. In this case the club is consti-
tuted the court of last resort. similar
rule obtains in the New York Yacht club,
although IS years ago the famous De-
Valkyrie controversy was settled
by specially constituted court appoint
ed by the New York Yacht Club.
The Eastern Yacht Club makes the re-
gatta committee the court of last resort
and its Rule IS bearing on the right OF
protest contains but two sections, while
he Corinthian and New York yacht Clubs
have three, the third being the provision
for the appeal to the club.
Many of the Eastern shippers hope
that during the coming winter the club
will insert the missing section. Such
provision would have no bearing on the
coming German American sender races
which are to be sailed under special
rules enforced by an international
board of judges.
