Queen Nab Has Big Margin Over
the Miladi in Contest for
SchOOnerS.

With the spray flying high over them
and reefs in the mainsails of many Of
the thirty-five yachts that started. the
shippers and crews that took part in
the annual summer regatta of the New
Rochelle Yacht Club yesterday had the
liveliest experience of their lives while
racing on the Sound in half gale from
the eastward.
Big seas were rolling up the Sound
when the committee boat. Robert NJ
Leach's power yacht Nabob III, lent to
the regatta committee by the owner,
anchored off Hicks Ledge buoy. George
C. Molloy. chairman of the committee.
assisted by II. w. Patterson and D. f.
Dealy. gave the starting signal for the
"fifties" at p. m.
Harry Payne Whitneys Barbara
handled by Harry Maxwell, was first
away on the port tack. She carried
mainsail and jb and no topsail, and
she was diving bows under in the head
seas as she crossed the line twenty
seconds after the signal.
Herman Steinbrugge's Acushla fol-
lowed on the opposite tack a couple of
minutes later. The delay was fatal.
for in the long thrash to windward of
some twelve miles in the heavy sea to
the buoy off Woolsey's Point she was
never able to overhaul her only com
petitor. In the run back before the
wind to Matinicock buoy the Barbara
gained. When they both gybed to
starboard to cross the Sound to the
finish the Acushla carried away the
jaws of her gait and was obliged TO
retire. ", Gu.
Miladi and Hendon Chubb's Queen NAB
made a spirited start at 2:O5. with
out topsails set and with lee rails
buried, they crossed the line on the
starboard tack. the Miladi leading by a
length. They sailed the same course
as the "ffties," the Queen Nab cover
inc the 21A mile course in 3:01:18,
winning from her rival by 0:11:53 cor
rected time. In the up" Glass, r. b.
Bndd's Amoret won from George 7.
Granbery's Anita by 0:04:04 after one
of the hardest races thsy have had
this season.
