TO HOLD ALL NIGHT
RACE FOR CRUISERS
Power Boat Championship to
BE Decided Over IS Mile
Course on Sound.
BY SAMUEL ). BRooKMAN.

An all night race is planned for this
years cruiser championship Of the
American Power Boat Association. The
committee of the New York Athletic
Club, under whose auspices the title
event is to be held has decided that 1t
Is far more practical for the craft to
finish shortly after dawn or in the fore
noon than at night. and is advising all
owners of the cruiser type of motor boat
of the change Offering as 1t does a
straight, unobstructed course. with no
turns until just before the finish at
Shelter Island. the eignty-five mile
stretch on Long Island Sound from
Huckleberry Island to the Shelter Island
Yacht Club Is said to be ideal for night
racing.
The race therefore is to start either
at 9 P. M. or 10 p. NJ on Friday. Au-
gust 5. Motor boat owners who have
been approached on the subject have
consented readily to the night race idea.
Their only concern has been lest Plum
Gut turn, about ten miles from the fin
ish, be reached before dawn. and some
have requested therefore that the event
be started at 10 P. NJ instead OF 3
p. M. The change from Saturday morn
ing to Friday night was prompted large
ly by the fact that the Shelter Island
Yacht Club is to hold yacht regatta
and aquatic carnival on Saturday, and
the cruiser championship committee
thought it would be a treat to the motor
boat owners to witness the aquatic meet
after their lang trip.
The title Race this year will be thirty
five miles longer than the initial trophy
race in 1920, when the course measured
fifty miles. From responses received to
date the New York Athletic Club COM
mittee figures confidently on at least
twenty-five to thirty starters in the
event. As was the case a year ago,
Philadelphia district will be represented
strongly, ten boats being expected from
that section.

Mahopac, Carmel, SC, within less than ilIty

wore having fair success. and with worms
,ve succeeded IN getting a fair catch OF
spcckIed trout Of from seven to ten incnes'
the Ia ryesf being three-quarters OF pound
we encountered bait fishermen on small
streams. -. ,.,
some had dozen, not excluding genial ;
elderly sportsman. whom we encountered
tbree different times during the day, and Ia
reply 10 questions Of what luckP' he in
va-iably answered. Having most enjoy
able time" lie, hswevcr. turned UP at
night with one good trout. which he fondly
dispiayed, SO presume his enjoyment was
complete. The trout seemed Int ana are
apparently getting lots or natural iood.
There are lots OF small trout IN these
streams, which would indicate that they
have been stocked during the year.. =. :,

New York in his championship express

won in England last summer with his
eighty mile per hour motor boat Miss

three Liberty aviation motors and which
he hopes will exceed the speed records
set by his winning boat last summer.

ROYAL Motor Yacht Club of England
and the Motor Boat Club of America
