tracted seventy yachts, and was one Of
the most successful meetings in the
clubs history. The number OF starters
undoubtedly would have been close to
hundred but for heavily overcast skies
in the morning and almost a total alb.
sence of wind. The breeze came up
with considerable velocity just before
the first class was sent away and in
creased to such an extent that weather
rails were awash at the finish.
Much to the surprise of the regatta
committee. six Of the international six
meter boats put In an appearance and
nine miles. The elimination trials for
these boats start tomorrow off Oyster
Bay and most of them ore hauled out
and being brushed up for the effort
that will decide which Of the sixteen
yachts will be selected as the four to
meet the British team.
The wind. which was strong but vari-
able, gave the internationalists an in
teresting workout. They were given a
run, a windward beat and broad reach
back to the finish line. The winner
proved to be Ace, owned by Adrian Ise-
lin II and w. C. Langley. She per-
formed well yesterday and may make q
fine showing in the American elimina-
tions.
L'Esprit, considered TO be one of the
best Of the internationalists, was Sec
ond. She is owned by William Hamlin
Childs. Nenwa, owned and built by w.
j. Waite, which is considered one Of
the freaks Of this division, finished
third. Her appearance was a decided
surprise, as it had been rumored rather
authoritatively that she had been with
drawn from the elimination trials ard
would do no more racing. Syce, the
entry Of the Stamford Yacht Club SYM
dictate, was rather poor third.
Only one of the New York Yacht
Clubs 5o-footers started and this de-
veloped the fact that the queenly Car
DINA, owned by Vice Comm dere
George Nichols, is out of competition
for the rest Of the summer. She split
her mast in the recent New York Yacht
Club cruise and this will end her rae
ing career for the season. Commodore
Nichols is a member of the committee
that will select the American six-metre
team and this will occupy most of his
attention for the next month.
The lone 5o-footer yesterday was Har-
poon, the properly Of F. D. M. Strachan.
Having no competitor she raced against
the best time Of the New York Yacht
Club 40-footers and overcame the al
lowance of time that she gave. She
defeated H. S. Duell's Rowdy, the win
ner among the "forties." Pamperu.
owned by C. l.. Andrews, finished con-
siderably astern of Rowdy and Zilph
was third. The "forties" and "hfties"
contested over triangular course Of
fifteen and one-half miles.
H. NJ. Cowperthwaites Georgia was
the winner among the Larchmont 20"
sloops, with Nimbus second and Gray
1uyr f~a IL IL. IL
fifteen and half miles. +?
The New York 30-fcoters had q spirit
ed battle over a triangular eleven miles.
r. H. Amberg's Silhouette defeated 8.
c. Prizes Oriole by forty-one seconds
after an interesting tussle. John II.
Mahlstert's Okee was third.
