Seminary and Jackson. After two
hours wait at Jackson, where other

on, the train left over the Y. & NJ. V.

$50 p. m. They found nice open
place on which TO pitch their tents
and had them up by 10 o'clock, after
which chow and bed.

ternoon the Howitzer baseball team
accepted the challenge of the fast
nine of Company c, from Lambert,
Miss, and gave them a drubblng to
the tune of 13 to 4. Home runs by

preciated just the same.
Music was furnished by the local
Maccabee Band of Tent No. Ct.
The revue was filmed by Fl. W.
Davis in motion pictures and will In
time be shown at the local A. & G.

vited to the Bay St. Louis Cafe,

offered for the pleasure of the many
visitors now within our gates. 1t is
proposed, if conditions are propitious,
to repeat the water sports and revue

Where the people came from COM
posing the crowd at the head of
Washington street on the pier of the
Bay Sea Food Company to witness
the double event of last Sunday af-
ternoon, namely, the Bathing Re-
vue' and "Water Sports Day." is
hard to say-but the multitudes were
there.
1t was the first event of it's kind
held in Bay st. Louis. Was it sue
cess? Every man, woman and child
there will attest to that.
Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas and
Tennessee were represented in the
sports, and there were so many en-
tries closely contesting that the
judges soon found the job on their
hands bigger than expected. After
an hours deliberation, the judges
finally decided that the first prize in
the Bathing Revue" should be
awarded to Miss Florio NJ. Kline, of
New Orleans.
Second prize, Miss Carroll Fryfo-
gle, of Houston, Texas.
Third prize, Miss Sophie Rosenthal,
of New Orleans.
Fourth prize Miss Gladys Clifford.
Judges-G. E. Templet, chairman;
Chas. A. Thiel, A. E. Mill, Fl. S. de
Gillum, Ben Monteleone. Mr.. Will
liam H. Starr, as usual, manifested
extraordinary interest, assisting IN
every possible manner toward the
success of the events of the day.
Following the Bathing Revue"
the events of "Water Sports Day"
held full sway. A. Coburn Weston,
of Logtown, secured as prize for first
winner a box of Perfectos; Miss Fry
fogle, bathing suit, as the second.
This was in the floating event. The
water sports were in full charge of
Russell Manieri, local athlete, and
Emmett Dwyer. Mr.. Piper fecetlous-
ly introduced Mr.. Weston as ''Za Ia"
and with his comical ''merrisms" kept
the crowds laughing well nigh contln-
uously. 1t was fun for all, and
everyone had their full quota. Mr..
Weston did not know how perfect the
Perfectos were and gave them away.
Later he told the writer he never

That the first annual regatta under
the newly-organized association
known as the Bay WaVeland Yacht
and Athletic Club was a success there
is no doubt. 1t is unquestionable.
No one would think of it otherwise.
And it is encouraging indeed to those
who have labored so we'll, under the
generalship of Louis H. Burns, regat-
ia chairman.
1t has been stated, and it Is ad-
mitted, that of the series of regattas,
extending from Pensacola, Fla, to
Houston, Texas, acting under the
auspices of the Gulf Coast Yachting
Association, none were the success
that the Bay-Waveland event has
proven. This was the second-last Of
the series. The final will take place
at New Orleans today-Saturday.
This is quite distinction, and the
Bay-Waveland club members are
proud of the distinction, for it Is au-
thoritatively stated that every one Of
the different regattas have been up
to and above the mark.
The triangle, the regular course
including the waters of both Bay ST.
Louis and Waveland, presented a
sight of white wings" never to be
forgotten. It is well the movie men
were present, and thousands at the
movie shows will enjoy the unforget-
able sight.
STORY OF THE RACE.
The story of the races is best told
by the professional writer's who prac-
tically write of little else. And IN
this instance the story of the day and
its events as told by the special writer
of the New Orleans Times-Picayune
is used as best for the purpose,
A dismal drizzle that dampened
Bay ST. Louis during the early hours
of Saturday morning and continued
for q few hours failed to dampen the
Yacht Club supporters and the en-
trants in the annual regatta over the
bay course. The rain god seemed to
become discouraged at his failure and
as the time drew near for the start
ing gun bright sunshine peeked
from behind the clouds and brisk
twelve-knot breeze began to blow
over the triangular course of compe-
tition. Behind every cloud there is
a silver lining and behind the un-
promising beginning of the big re-
gatta there certainly did lay silver
lining.
The day and regatta developed
into one of the greatest events of its
kind in the history of the Gulf Coast.
Everything went off without the
slightest sign of a hitch, nothing
could be asked for in the way of COM

MORTGAGE ON RECORD
PLANT AT PILOT ROCK
MAY Be FORECLOSED
Bank Brings Action to Collect
on Note for $4,000; Editor.
j. Kirkpatrick Disappeared.

Another chapter has been AIDED -
the Jean p. Kirkpatrick case, publish
er of the Pilot Rock Record, in a suit
which has been filed in circuit couri
by the First Bank of Pilot Rock in
which the institution seeks foreclosure
OF a. mortgage of $4,000 held by il
against the plant and building of the
newspaper,
The note, and the mortgage which
secures it, were given February 26
1920, according to the information in
the complaint. The interest has beer
paid, it is stated, but the principal Of
the note is unpaid. Raley, Raley and
Steiwer and H. ]. Warner represent
the bank.
Kirkpatrick disappeared from his
usual haunts about four weeks since,
and his whereabouts remain n mvs-
terry. He told his wife he was poino
to Pilot Rock for two or three days.
When he failed to return at the end
of the time when she expected him,
Mr.. Kirkpatrick called the Record
office at Pilot Rock from her home in
Walla Walla and was greatly surpris-
ed and alarmed when told that her
husband had not been there that
week.
Nothing has ever been heard of him
since the Tuesday night when he was
here. Circulars have been sent out
to the police all over the west in an
effort to get some trace of the man.
but no results have been secured.
Whether kirkpatrick decided to slip
away. or whether he met with foul
play and was waylaid and murdered
and the body hidden is not known.
Those who hold the former theory
point to the fact that he was-fn debt,
while those who think he was vic
tim of foul play recall his habit of
carrying considerable sumo of money
around in his pocket.
