Experts Doubtful

Yachting experts are not inclined to
concede a repetition of this victory Of
the Gardner designed sloop over the
Herreshoff creation, for the 29mile
race over "a triangular course was sail
ed under extremely fiuky weather con-
ditions and the adherents of the flag
officers yacht are confident that to-
morrow's race will be another story.
Defiance Didn't Start
The meeting of the Resolute and
Vanitie in the initial contest of the
year drew yachtsmen from all parts
of the Eastern coast and although the
third candidate. the Defiance, was un-
able to start as originally intended,
the duel between the Herreshoff and
Gardner sloeps was one that thrilled.
Thousands followed the yachts twice
around the triangle in steam yachts,
sailing craft, motor boats and eXcur-
sion steamers.
The spectators saw two of the three
single stickers built for the purpose
of defending the Americas cup against
Sir Thomas Lipton's challenger Sham
rock " tried out under fluctuating
weather conditions. The breeze ran
the gamut from a puffy little air to
a stiff blow that heeled the 75-footers
over until their keels were visible in
the blue waters of the sound And when
the fleet of private yachts and excur-
sion boats headed away from the fin
ish line it was the concensus of opin-
ion that two worthy defending candi-
dates had demonstrated their prowess
with still another yet to show its
speed Consequently the reputed wiz
ardlike skill of Designer Nicholson
of the Shamrock did not appear so
fearsome as heretofore.
The Course
The course laid ou@ by the New York
Yacht Club regatta committee was a
triangular one that called for a close
fetch. beat and broad reach, but
the f1uky weather conditions upset
these calculations to some extent. 1t
was half an hour after noon when the
preparatory signal was sounded off
Rye Point and rival shippers began
to jockey for the start. At the wheel
of the Resolute was Charles Francis
Adams II, while aboard were Robert
w. Emmons II. the manager of the
hnson, George a. Cormack, Nat Her
reshoff and Asa w. Hathaway, head
sail maker for the Herreshoffs.
Picture of Marine Beauty
At the wheel of the Vanitie stood
Capt. William S. Dennis with Freder-
lex NJ. Hoyt and Frederick NJ. Davies
as his board of strategy With a six
mile wind coming out of the northwest,
a ripping sound and a blue sky fieck-
ed with white clouds above the
two yachts, jockeying for the advan-
tage at the start formed picture that
would have taxed the skill of mas
ter marine artist to depict on canvas.
But the shippers saw little of the
beauty of the picture as they guided
their racing craft across the waters
waiting for the starting signal. Capt.
Adams held a slight advantage on the
final move and stood across the line
at 12:26:12. while the Vanitie followed
"a seconds later. Shortly after the cup
defence candidate got away, the wind
freshened to a 10-mile breeze. Once
the Gardner sloop got her racing stride
there was little change in the rela-

we like them very much. Their action
Is excellent and we are grateful for
having been made acquainted with
them. We have had good results in
every case and the Sisters are very
much pleased"
The form and flavor of any medi-
cine is very important, no matter
who is to take it. The taste and

LINGUISTIC Barriers.

II is generally accepted that the adop-

II is confronted with physical impossi

Italian language could be given TO the
Chinese or the Russians 1t would
change SO that In u few years no one

fact that the people in the chilly north
