The Rock Island Argus and daily union. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1920-1923, 1920-07-15
By HENRY i. FARRELL.

Atlantic Highlands, N. J.. July Is.
An eight-mile breeze from the
southwest. likely to freshen.
CLASSY sea and overcoat skies at
an early hour today indicated uu-
settled weather would prevail at
noon today when the Shamrock Nv
and the Resolute cross the line ON
their 30 mile race for Americas
cup.
Astir shortly before dawn, the
Shamrock's crew we're breakfasted
and put aboard the challenger be-
fore 6 a. m. There was no sign OF
life on the Resolute until an hour
later, although her mainsail was
still to be bent on. Shamrock's
huge sail was bent on yesterday.
The white clad Upton men
hustled about the deck, grooming
the racer with microscopic eyes.
Gets Record Handicap.
Shamrock will not use the club
top sail she was measured with and
will be allowed to deduct Is Sec
onds from her handicap with a
small sail. The handicap which
the Shamrock must concede was
placed at seven minutes and If
teen seconds by the race commit
tee, the greatest handicap ever al
lowed.
The Resolute will 60 to the start
a 2 to l favorite. Close to $780,
600 has been wagered.
Use Of wireless by the press In
covering the races and airplanes
as carriers for spectators will be
novelties. Perhaps the smallest
crowd in the history of the races
will view the classic. This is due
to new safety restrictions which
prevent many excursion boats from
going beyond the three-mile limit.
The race cannot 60 over six hours
az the rules require that 1t cannot
be sailed or finished after sundown.
Res0luto Grow IS.
Resolute is to carry q crew Of IS
in command Of Skipper Charles !.
Adams of Boston, while Shamrock
Nv will have . crew OF 40 in COM
mand Of Captain William P. Bur-
ton.
The start will be from an mag
mary line of Ambrose Lightship.
The preparatory. signal will be set
ON the committee boat at 10:45'
Ten minutes later the warning sig
nal will follow and the starting
signal will be raised in five min
utes.
For a period of two minutes
after the starting signal the yachts
may get away and have their time
taken. II either fails to cross the
line within the prescribed two
minutes she will be penalized as
her time will be taken from then
on.
Both Ready for Race.
The reason for the handicap In
favor of the American boat is thai
Shamrock carries approximately
1900 square feet more canvas THAI
its rival. which gives 1t decided
advantage in boat comparison

two vessels follow:
