STANFORD, Conn.,, Aug. 6. - A
snappy southwest breeze that at times
reached avelocity of more than fifteen
miles an hour resulted in fast times
and close finishes in the twenty ninth
annual regatta OF the Stamford Yacht
Club. which was sailed off Shippan
Peat this afternoon.
The breeze was exceedingly puffy
and one of the sharp gusts dismanted
H. S. Thompson's Osseo, in the Indian
Hsrbor knockabout class, as she was
preparing to cross the starting line.
One of the arrow class had to rely
on her spinnaker in order to finish,
fhe wind having slashed her mainsail
TO ribbons.
The New York Yacht Clubs cruise
and the threatening weather combined
to cut down the number of starters in
to-day's races. No ffty-footers ap
neared and F. D. NJ. Strachan's Mon
soon was the only one of the forties
to show up. She could not find com
petitor and went home without racing
Only Two Thirty Footers
Only two of the New York thirty
footsrs put in an appearance, which
= unusual for this sturdy class. In
