PENSACOLA
YACHTSMEN TO
ENTER RACES
PROPOSE COMPETING FOR
Upton TROPHY DURING
REGATTA TO BE HELD AT
NEW. ORLEANS
INV Associated pre.sl

PENSACOLA, Fla, Aug. IT,
High point shippers of the Pensa-
cola Yacht Club who will -endeavor
to land the. Upton trophy at New
Orleans next month are Captain
Dave Witherill and Captain Will
liam Walthers, who in the past
have been the winning sailors in
Pensacola boats competing for the
valuable cup offered by the in
ternationally known sportsman,
who offered the trophy to arouse
interest in sailing races.
Captains Witherill and Walthers
qualified to represent the Pensa-
cola Yacht Club at New Orleans
September 4-6, after six weeks of
elimination races sailed on the
triangular course in Pensacola bay.
Witherill is high man with %
points, with Walthers coming sec
ond with 10 points. Alternates
are r. Witherill. 10 points, and
Joe Marques, II points.
The record in yachting circles
here shows that the Upton trophy
was won by the Pensacola yachts
men, with Witherill and Walthers
sailing, in the first competition in
1920. Mobile won it in 1921,
Pensacola and New Orleans tied
for it in 1922, and Pensacola won
in 1928, holding it through the
1924 season, and losing it to the
New Orleans sailors in 1925. I'm
der the rules the cup will be de-
Tended this year in the New Or
leans waters by sailors of the
Southern Yacht Club.
With the qualification of the
two Pensacola shippers, the race
in September at New Orleans will
be sailed by the following teams:
0verton and Jackson for Mobile;
Blouin and Roberts for New Or
leans; Reese and Fogarty for the
st. Petersburg yaehtsmen, and
several other crack shippers viii
make total of fourteen skiffs in
the race. and II gives promise of
being one of the snappiest ever
staged by southern yachtsnen.
WitherilI and Walthers have
been sailing mates since 1921
when Pensacola won the cup. They
elected tn watch the races from
the docks in 1913. and that is the
year they saw the cup lifted by
the competing sailors from New
Orleans.
