Scheduled to be Held at Prin-
cess Bay Sunday-M May be
Run Here

The sail boat races scheduled to
be held at Princess Bay on Sunday.
under the auspices of the combined
clubs of Sewaren and Railway, in
connection with the regatta held
last Sunday on the Arthur XIII, have
been postponed. The sailing event
will either take place with the big
regatta to be held at Keyport on
September 1, ? and 3, or in a special
event to be run off here.
Whether or not the event takes
place in this city, considerable n
terest is being displayed in the num-
Der about town, as well as the en-
tire vicinity. Intense rivalry seems
to be centered between Lewis Comp
ton. of the Raritan Yacht club, and
j. ]. and w. P. Housman. known IN
yachting circles as Housman broth
ers.
Lew the local yachtsman with
his pride, the Nadia, snapped or
first honors at the regatta held in
local waters last year, while the
Housman boys with their ski1.
Tempest succeeded in taking the
same prize in the races held at Key.
port. In the event this year. Comp
ton expects to have an easyx i'm.
clipping off first honors. as he i
nounced recently that he is going L
put every ounce of fight into tn.
race in an effort to have the trophy
at the local yacht club.
Not much is being heard from
the Housman brothers, but accord-
ing to their feelings some time ago,
when they attended an affair held
at the local club, Compton and any
one else will have to do some tall
stepping to hold their own with the
Railway yachtsmen.
