Commodore II. NJ. Sears Of the East
ern Yacht Club gave yachting a big
boost when he offered the cup emble-
matte of the Junior championship. This
was first raced for last year. when
about n dozen clubs whose headquarters
are in eastern waters sent crews TO
Marblehead to compete for the prizes.
The Eastern Yacht Club had built three
small knockabouts and after the crews
had drawn they started racing In heats.
The competition became popular at
once. II appealed strongly to the junior
yachtsmen, boys under IS years OF age.
and was strongly supported by the
seniors because they appreciated that TO
interest the youngsters in the sport was
building for the future and that in the
course OF a few years the juniors would
be sailing their own boats in the more
important races.
This year eighteen crews went to
Marblehead. Three OF these were from
this section, representing the Larch-
month. Seawanhaka- -Corlnthian and
cedarhurst Yacht clubs. The juniors
we're well entertained by the Eastern
Yacht Club and week was devoted to
the sport. After the first trials, and
each trial consisted of three races, six
crewe were left. The Larchmont and
Cedarhurst crews went through the sec
ond trials, and In the semi finals the
Cednrhurst crew Aldrich Kniffen
Daniel r. Cox and John Il. Tappen-losi
through n little hard luck.
