DEFENDERS SKIPPER
!. BORN TO WATER AND
!: : BRED TO SAILOR LIFE

~ NEW YORK. July 15.-charles
Francis Adams, 2nd, the man at the
wheel who will try to steer the Reso-
Lutte to victory in her first race In
defense of the Americas cup off
Sandy Hook today, Is characterized
by experts as the premier American
yachtsman.
He has owned more than score OF
yachts and has sailed nearly 100,
small and large and some OF these
have been the best boats Of their class
in. America and the world.
% Mr.. Adams Is treasurer OF Harvard
university and a member Of the cor
poration, a director in many COM
I,anies and in personal charge OF trust
estates amounting to many millions.
Years ago he became known to yacht
ing associates under the nickname OF
Deacon" and some Of them still call
him by that name.
+ Born at Quincy, Mass, he came of a
, long line of sea-faring men and inner
i tied love Of the sea. He Is credited
with calm Judgment and high type
of craftsmanship. His father used TO
take him sailing in Boston Harbor
when he was a child and by the time
he was 70 years old he was winning
races with his small boats. In those
days he learned a lot about the tricky
side Of races, for rules were lax.
E In later years Mr.. Adams built and
sailed to victory many notable yachts
most Of which bore names composed
of seven letters with a double o, such
as the Papoose, Baboon, Gossoon,
tHarpoon and Rooster.
- Sent Brother Almost to Sea.
:. He was at the wheel Of the famous
Pilgrim when she sailed a race against
the Vigilant and Jubilee for the honor
OF defending the Americas cup In
d 1898. He sent his brother George,
mate Of the Pilgram to the leeward rail
to watch the lib sheets as the yacht
. drove along In a smoky Southwestern.
z She heeled so hard that George soon
stood in water up to his knees.
Hey, there, Deacon" he yelled, it's
getting deep out here"
u.s. IT don't care if it comes up to your
neck, you stay there till tell you to
come out" replied Captain Charles.
But the Pilgrim was defeated
There may be a happy omen in the
fact that Charles f. Adams years ago
blocked the aspirations Of one little
Scotch cutter, the Minerva, which
came to America and defeated num-
Der OF American boats In 1890. Her
victories were regarded as ominous
and suggested to yachtsmen the pos
sibility that larger boat of her type
would be sent to carry away the
Americas cup. The Minerva was
sailed by Charlie Barr, the famous
skipper, who defended the cup as
skipper of the Columbia in 1901 and
the Reliance in 1903. But Captain
Adams with his little Gossoon stopped
the victorious career by winning two
out of three races.
Captain Christianson, the profess
sional skipper of the Resolute, has
sailed with Mr.. Adams before. He was
quartermaster of the Pilgrim in the
race of 1898 and won Mr. Adams
approval by going out on to the gaff, a
dangerous position, to fasten sail
that became loose while the race was
on.
