[By T. D. Scott, (Noted Yacht Ex-

NEW YORK, July 16.-The victory
|of Shamrock Nv over Resolute in the
first race of Americas cup yesterday
is generally regarded as 'fuke vic
tory" but it should not be.
By analysis it would seem that it
was a victory OF a sloop OF superior
over too finely rigged
yacht.
That much was strikingly evident
and it bears out the opinion formed
during the trial races when Resolute
had three serious mishaps that she
was only light weather boat and
lacked strength
Beyond proving that she is better
put up the Upton challenger had
little opportunity Of showing her
other virtues.
There was not enough air moving
for the most part to heel either. sloop
over. Had not Captain Burton momel-
tarily lost his bearings in the fog
which descended just as the boats
crossed the line. it is possible that
the green challenger would have
showed her stern to the defender
from the starting line to the turn in
stead of the Resolute being a quarter
of mile ahead as was the case when
her throat ha1yards parted. bringing
her main sail topping to the deck.
With barely a breath of wind
Shamrock actually overhauled and
passed the Resolute within few
seconds after the. white sloop had
slid over the starting line less than
half a minute ahead of the Upton
yacht This phase of the race was
unseen by all but one observing boat
which secured photographs showing
the challenger ahead of the defender.
Adams headed the Resolute seawai l
and with clever tack-splitting scooped
UP spasmodic breezes which the
Shamrock missed. This drew the
Resolute ahead and in this position
she was found when the fog lifted.
1t is significant that the moment
the breeze freshened sufficiently to
heel the yacht over sufficiently en-
racing lines Resolute's rigging failed
to stand the slight strain whereas
Shamrock bent easily to It and spurt-
ed ahead, cutting down the distance
between the two before the defend
