EXPECT BRITAIN
WILL ABANDON
YACHT CONTEST
Canada, Spain or Germany
May Send Next Americas
Cup Challenger.
BY MORRIS DE HAVEN TRACY
United Press stan Correspondent

NEWPORT. r. /, Sept. 10
Yachtsmen look to Canada. Spain
or Germany for the next challenge
TO race for the Americas cup.
Failure Of Sir Thomas Eptons
fifth attempt to win the "old mug"
for England, and the general lack
of enthusiasm among EngIshmen
here over the details of the COM
petition. gave rise today to a definite
belief that it may be many years
before Great Britain again attempts
to bring home the trophy which
the Yacht America won in 1851.
In Canada. of recent years there
has been a growing interest in
yachting. Canada builds good yachts
and her sailors from the maritime
provinces are regarded particularly
as being as competent as any in the
world
Spain May Enter Race

at heavy loss it has sent the Graf
Zeppelin around the world to Amer
lea and to South America largely
Tor the purpose of directing atten-
lion to the capabilities of Germany.
Though it would cost million
dollars TO race a yacht for the cup,
victory would be we'll worth the
price TO nation which, bereft of
it's military power and shorn of its
trade when the war ended. set out
to replace what it had lost in the
way of prestige. through peaceful
means.
Upton Out of Competition
Belief that the British will not
soon race again is based on the
general dissatisfaction Britishers
felt over the Enterprise was a
mechanical Yacht
Britishers feel that the Enter
prise was out of the realm of yacht
ing, which they, seemingly, inter
preted as 2 sport where man does
all the work with his own hands
and disdains the use of mechanical
devices.
Sir Thomas Upton, now past 30,
is through, for he considers this his
last challenge.

CHICAGO, Sept. 19.--Chris Long

learned the difference between a

an expensive lesson.

Thursday, Chris suddenly found
himself face to face with an odd
looking thing on a tripod. It looked
to him like a fancy camera. Be-

Chris grasped the situation quick
