sailing model yachts in New York
since he was five years old, was seen
at the yacht lake in Central Park
yesterday afternoon sailing his boat.
/, "Of course we will race the British
yachtsmen," he said. We've got soma
clever modellers on this side of the
water and 1 believe we can win OUT.
"All we need is n good place to race.
This lake is so situated that the winds
