by ARTHUR r. ALDRIDGE.

BY ARTHUR #. ALDRIDGE.
The Larchmont Yacht Club sailed its
41st annual regatta yesterday and 76
yachts took part in 10 races. The
yachtsmen met varying conditions of
weather. In some classes the wind held
fairly true but In others It was fiulxey.
1t came from north-northeast when the
course signals were set on the commit
tee boat. Howell C. Perrin. Mayor Will
liam Harvey Smith, Jr., Arthur Knapp
and Shirley G. Ellis managed the races
and sent the yachts across the sound
first. This made the second leg Of each
cruise windward work.
Two fifty footers Carolina sailed by
Vice-Commodore George Nichols and
Istalena sailed by Carroll B. Alker raced
in the 50-foot class. They first had a
run across the Sound to Motto Point, a
heat to Greenwich Point and broad
reach to the finish, 20 miles in ALL The
start was most interesting.
The two yachts reached toward the
dory marking the eastern end Of the line
with Carolina in the weather position.
AS they neared .the dory 1t looked as if
Carolina might be forced the wrong
ward boat and had to keep clear and
according to the rules the dory did not
become mark Of the course until the
starting signal. Commodore Nichols
luffed Carolina to kile her way and
when the signal sounded was able to
force Istalena to keep off and give Car
olina room. Istalena gybed twice on
the line and then setting a spinnaker
to port gave chase to the black sloop
Carolina led all the way and won by
4 minutes 80 seconds.
The Lea. John F. Birmingham's six
meter yacht, sailed by Sherman Hoyt,
won by many minutes in her class. She
Is Gielow designed and very different in
model from the others. These yachts
were sent over a special course to losep
them clear OF the other class This
course was 14A miles long and they had
miles OF windward work. They were
well lined up at the start. L'Esprlt
was slightly in the lead Cygnet was
at the eastern end and Lea at the west
'ern or leeward end. They carried spin
makers across the Sound and were still
IN close company when they hauled Oh
the wind. 1t was on the leg that thu
Lea did her best work. She took the
lead and was able to catch the change,
of wind first on the north side Of the
Sound. The wind lightened toward the
l.
urally suffered. Johnston de Forest
with Priscilla, finished second: Henry
b: Plant, with Clytie, was third, and
LEsprit, sailed by Butler Whiting. was
fourth.

IN her class, with r. D. NJ. Strachan's
