bers Of his crew said later, forcing
Walters through the green waters
inside the mark. Then according
to the Canadian skipper, the pilot
aboard the Bluenose shouted to the
helmsman, Captain Albert Himmel-
man to bear away.
Bear away and we strike him!"
Himmelmn shouted back.
Strike him or strike the rocks"
the pilot answered.
The Bluenose tore away with Pine
still trying to huff Walters doused
his skysail and swung his foresail
wing and wing. He blanketed the
Gloucesterman. Next his main
boom touched the main shrouds of
the Columbia. Still Pine tried to
huff. The Canadians main boom
swept the forestays of the Columbia,
doubling up the sheer rod. Finally
1t caught in the downhaul of the
Gloucesterman's jib and for nearly
minute the defender towed the
challenger. Then the Lunenburger
cleared and opened up a gap. She
raced for the finish line and the re-
suit was never in doubt again.
The incident on that fourth leg
of the race was the subject tonight
of the controversy which seems to
ne inseparably connected with
schooner racing. Fishermen gath
cred in knots to discuss the alleged
fouling of the Columbia by the
Bluenose, and rumors of a protest
were heard on all sides. Captain
Ben Pine made no mention of a
possible protest and had lodged
none with the sailing committee up
to late hour tonight. Members of
the American race committee freely
stated that there would be no pro-
test
Captain Pine seemed more con-
morning than with any other feature
of the contest.
I'VE will be nearer the starting gun
tomorrow than we were today" he
announced after the race.
The possibility of a protest hinged
on one of the rules governing the
international series, which reads: 4
When a vessel is approaching a
shore, shoal, rock, vessel, or other
dangerous obstruction, and cannot go
clear by altering her course without
1oul1ng another vessel, then the lat
ter shall on being hailed by the for
mer at once give room, and in case
one vessel is forward to tack or to
bear away in order to give room, the
other shall also tack or bear away as
the case my be at as near the same
time as is possible without danger

Pine of Gloucester was not making
mistakes. When the Bluenose came
about and the old timers decided that
it was a dead heat as between the
two shippers, Pine by that maneuver
had taken up all Walters advantr~e
and the race was on even terms
again.
Then came a fight for the weather
berth, and the battle royal of the
day. The struggle was limited only
by the rugged rocks of Chebucto
Head jutting out to weather of the
maneuvering schooners. With ev-
cry sail filing and the boats racing
neck and neck Pine kept edging
Walters up to weather. Try as he
might the Lunenburger could not
shake off his rival.
