NNAPOLIS, Md, September
n 1S.-Driving through
~ choppy sea at the mouth Of
the Severn this afternoon,
Hotsy Totsy, losing the first heat
OF the main event of the Presi-
dents Cup regatta, came through
to take the two final heats and
the race in gallant style.
The runabout from Montauk,
Long Island, by its excellent work
at all phases OF the going, showed
itself to be superior boat to the
Imp, End, also from Long Island,
and the cup winner last year.
The Californian, o new challenger.
driven by Dick Loynes Of Long Beach
Calf, won the first heat, and made a
poor showing in the second and third,
probably due in some measure to an
accident which 1t incurred at some
period Of the second heat.
Bottom Plate Loesened.
Prior to the start of the third heat
the Californian skipper reported that
he had ioosened a bottom plate, and he
was given time for some quick repairs.
1t was thought that the plates were
strained in quick turn.
The Californian had an additional
misfortune by beating the nag ut the
start of the final heat. 1t was called
back and started out third Of q mile
behind the two leaders and with little
chance Of catching up.
The Hotsy Totsy, final winner, also
had m1shap early in the race, missing
a buoy at the first turn, and had to
loop back and so outside of this. This
led to stern chase of the Imp II for
three laps, but half way over the fourth
the Hotsy Totsy shot into the lead, and
rapidly increased it to the end, passing
the finish line $50 yards ahead Of its
! rival.
In the meantime the Californian had
more trouble with its leaky bottom and
had to retire.
Runabout Race Close.
The closest of all the contests was
! In the 30o-horsepower race for run
abouts, though there were but two en-
tries, understood to have the same
| ownership.
After covering the course without q
| separation of more than q length, the
| Whynot, owned and driven by j. NJ.
Rutherford, Port Washington, Long Is
| land, crossed the line half length
| ahead of the Becky, piloted by Miss
Maud Hughes of the same place.
