FAMOUS SLOOP
YACHT CLIQUE

Probably the most famous sloop
yacht ever to sail under the flag of
the Portland Yacht Club was the
topsail sloop Clique, which served as
flagship Of the p. Y. c. fleet under
Commodore Reuben X. Dyer.
The Clique was known all along the
New England coast. For an early
type boat. the Clique was really a
marvellous sailor. Fair by the wind
and a ghost of from 1t. On three diff
ferent times while cruising with the
Boston Yacht club feet the Portland
flagship finished first of the entire
fleet regardless of class. Commodore
Dyer has many cups and trophies
won by the Clique and he prizes them
highly.
The CLIQUE took part in every annu-
al cruise of the Portland Yacht Club
cruise while she was owned by Com
modore Dyer. Many jolly party has
sailed in the sloop and it was with re-
greet that she was sold few years
ago. The Banshee, the present flag
ship of the Portland Yacht Club, was
built for Vice Commodore Edward
Woodman and sold to Commodore
Dyer in 1915. She certainly makes a
beautiful picture on fine summer
afternoon with her long, lean, black
hull, snug sails and shining brass
works. She is not the equal of the
old Clique as a cruising boat, but is
fast and able.

KOUSER OUT TO PUT AUGUSTA ON
BASEBALL MAP COMING SUMMER

Yea, here's some advance chatter
on baseball prospects in the Capital
city. Ben Houser who is to direct
the fortunes of the Augusta team,
in a letter to Jack O'Connell says he
has lines out for several tossers that
look good to him. Reynolds the big
Georgetown hurler IS going good
this spring and Ben will soon make
him an offer to linger here during
the coming summer. Incidentally
he can lam the pill in most satisfac-
tory style, Bissonet,e would make a
fine running mate for Reynolds and
Houser has approached him on the
subject but to date 'Der' is unde-
cided.
"Squanto' Wilson is slated to am
BILE round the initial sack and will
make life miserable for opposing
pitchers with his big war club. Phil
Brisk the Gardiner lad now with
Amherst will probably hold down
the hot corner and while he has not
been signed the deal will probably
go through. Francis Hill the local
boy VINO IldS IlldOc SoOu Oii Do"ooih
would fit in fine in the outer garden
in the opinion Of Houser and the lat
ter is anxious to have Fat" play
here this summer. Ben says the
former Cony star is headed for the
big circuit if he keeps up his good
work That's all the personnel dope
to, date.
AS to what teams Augusta will
stack up against the coming season
why the woods are full of 'em. Fred
die Parents Sanford combination
will surely make it interesting while
Ostergren's collection that is to rep
resent the Forest city is certainly
no slow bunch. South Portland,
the Lewiston Pilgrims, Norway, I'll.
& W., Waterville. NJ c. r. r., Water
Vile and Oakland all say there will
be strong teams representing those
places. Now mark this-a prominent
Gardiner fan says: go get your team
and when you are all set you'll hear
something drop in our burg and 1t
won't be the thermometer either.
Sounds bad-I mean good, don't 1t?

SAYONARA I WAS
A SPEEDY CRAFT

The Sayonara I, crack class p 81
rater, but in 1911, was one of the
fastest Portland yachts in recent
years and was owned by Vice Commo-
dore F. West. On Junee 20. 1911, the
Sayonara started in her first race with
feet of six class p boats in the Co
rinthian Yacht Club 95-mile night
ocean race. The Portland yacht won in
her class, finishing nearly two hours
ahead of her nearest rival and also fin
ished second out of the entire feet of
% yachts. The famous ocean racing
schooner Veronci was first to cross the
finish line only a little more than an
hour ahead of the Sayonara.
A few minutes past l o'clock that
Sunday morning the Portland 31rater
led the entire feet around the stake

times before they could believe it, and
then out of the gloom was shouted,

Portland to Have
a Fine Field

Portland, Me-, April 25-A fine
baseball field is being laid out on the
top of Eastern Promenade by the
Recreation commission. 1t is known
as Harvey Field, and has been avail
able for several years, but has never
been graded and made first class for
the amateur baseball games and 9TH
CIR outdoor sports. Once the Legis-
lature granted an increase in the
sum which the commission is to re-
ceive from the Park commission, this
improvement was undertaken.
1t will cost about $1,000, and this
expenditure is possible because of an
Recreation commission fund. 1t has
been 10 per cent heretofore, about
$4,000, and. will suffice for the pur-
pose for several years.
Prof. Granville r. Lee. superin-
tendent Of the Fairgrounds of the
city which the Recreation commits
sion controls, is directing the work
on Harvey Field. the land being
owned by the Water District, but
loaned to the city to provide good
chance for children ION the hilr' to

their lives.

will have a ball ground also, and the
bows in the Deering district will en-
ioy themselves accordingly, these
two new Fairgrounds for the coming
summer being sure to be appre-
ciated.
Mayor Clarke says the East End
lighthouses will be repaired and
opened this summer as usual by
somebody. The Recreation commits
sion has declared financial inability
to make necessary repairs, but the
committee on public buildings or the
Park commission will undertake to
do the job, it is said rather than de-
prive residents in that section OF the
city of the bathing beach privileges.

WHEN DORY RACING
WAS AT IT'S HEIGHT

In 19OS fourteen one design racing
dories X class were built by men,
bers of the Portland Yacht club.
These conformed with the x class
Massachusetts,. Dory racing was at
it's height and Saturday afternoon
and mid-week races became the
regular order of events, and they
were held in Gains, fogs and blows.
In heavy blows spills were not I'M
common and the regulation costume
of dory crews were bathing suits.
Interest was keen and when Wal
ter Knight, vice commodore of the
South Boston Yacht club offered a
trophy for Maine and Massachusetts
dories the Portland Yacht club was
quick to accept the challenge.
There trials and finally four
dories, the pick Of the local fleet.
were placed on board the Boston
steamer and shipped to the Battle
Ground" Portland dorymen would
like to forget that year 1908 so we
will dismiss that part of the story
by quoting one of the defeated skip
pers who said: Just say they beat
us to a fragile and let it go at that"
But the next year the Portland men
made better showing. The Massa-
chusetts yachtsmen had been laugh
ing and jollying with such remarks
as, IF we ever catch you Maine fell
lows out in stiff blow. We'll show
you how to sail dory."
That remark later gave the Port
land Yacht club dorymen about all
the satisfaction they were able to
derive from the defeats of 19OS. In
1909 the Portland dorymen were
right on the job and there was just
the sort of a breeze the Massachu-
sets fellows had been praying for.
It was that same Nor-wester that
greeted the New York Yacht club
on the memorable cruise and IL
mile thrash from Pollocks RiIs to
Cape Elizabeth Ligthship. The first
dory race that "rip-snorter" was
won hands down by the Portland
yachtsmen, and all hands felt that
the honor of P. Y. c. had been up
held as the Massachusetts, fellows
had been trimmed in real wind.
The Massachusetts boys took the
honors the second day in diminish
ing breezes, but the third day the
Portland dorymen came into their
own again when the breeze stiffened
and blew hard. Light airs prevailed
the final two days of the races with
the result that Portland dorymen lost
the series. The defeat the second
year rather killed interest and dory
racing died natural DEATH" Some
of the old racing dories may be seen

tered, and equipped with gasoline

for the Dempsey Carpenter heavy
weihgt championship bout July Q.
training plants of the contestants to-
night we're being laid accordingly.
Location Of Dempsey's came has not
been finally selected, but II is generally
understood that the champion will Sc
lect Atlantic City, while Carpenter
will train on Long Island, probably
at Manhassett.
According to present indications,
Carpenters training will be conduct
ed along much more secret lines than
Denrpsey's. Those in close touch with
Carpenters representatives in this
country state that his manager, Fran
co.'s Descamps, plans b have the Eu-
ropean champion follow much the same
line of training adopted when in Eng
! land preparing for his bouts with
Beckett and Wells.
Little of Carpenters training will
be done in public-possibly only some
light exercises, road and shadow boz
ing. Daily boxing matches with his
sparring partners may also be staged
for the benefit Of the newspaper re-
porters assigned to cover the train
ing of Carpentien. but the serious prep
aration in which the French heavy
weight will cut loose will be conducted
behind closed doors, If present plans
are followed, la,
So far as is known. Dempsey will
not follow any such training campaign.
Wherever his camp il located, the
public will be admitted to witness the
training at a nominal charge, as has
always been his custom.
