ent plans, 1t will be 16 feet wide and
viii extend the whole length Of the

An ordinance, restricting parking

There will be sixteen races in the
meet, ranging from Class a out.
boards to cruiser races.
Cutter There
A Coast Guard cutter will attend
the meet and will act as a sort of
step-mother to the immense brood
of cruisers, outboards, runabouts,
and other craft that will dot the
harbor.
The race course has been laid out
on the wide Severn, opposite Herald
Harbor. Arrangements have been
completed for a. cruiser race from
Baltimore to the harbor on the
afternoon of the twenty-seventh.
This will cover a distance Of about
40 miles and will be a real test of
the seamanship and ability Of crew
and craft themselves.
Many beautiful trophies have al.
ready been offered by residents and
yachting enthusiasts of Baltimore
and Annapolis. These will probably
be augmented by additional
prizes for other races.

GASOLINE CARS
WILL RUN TO
BEACH
VIII Supplement Steam Trains
to Chesapeake, Accord
ing to Plans

Gasoline motor cars will be In.
troduced on the Chesapeake Beach
Railway this fall especially to
handle the all.the-year-around COM
muter traffic. according to an.
nouncement by Col. Lee n. Landis.
assistant to President George
Detrick and In charge Of opera
tions.
The gasoline cars will not replace
but merely supplement, the present
steam trains. The number Of gaso-
line cars gradually will be increAGed
until eventually, 1t is likely, they
will be operated as small trains Of
three cars EACH.
The steam trains will continue to
handle the bulk OF the excursion
traffic, as the limited size OF the
ing care Of peak loads. The gasoline
cars will be ideal, however, for
transporting commuters. They will
be fast, clean, comfortable, and
economical to operate. While the
average steam train requires q
minimum crew Of five. the Easo-
line cars need only two for opera
ton.
Steps are being taken for the
gradual improvement Of the rail-
road property and the resort. A
landscape gardener soon will start
work beautifying the shore line. An
immense wooded tract between the
Beach and Randall Cliffs has been
subdivided and will be offered for
sale at once.
Special inducements will be
offered home builders with the idea
of building a bayside city Of
permanent all-the-year-around resi-.
dents. Train schedules will be re-
vised so as to cater to- pffice com.
muters. Arrangements are being
made with the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company to have
immediate connections with all
trains.
