The Once Over
By n 7.
THOSE CUP DEFENDER TRIALS
Copyright, 1880. by The Associated Newspaper

Newport, r. l., Monday-Races between the yachts
competing for the distinction Of representing America
in the coming cup race were called off today after
several mIshaps. Shortly after the yachts left the
starting buoy. a breeze of five miles an hour sprung
up. carrying away the masts Of the Enterprise, Weeta-
moe and Yankee and c~apsizing the Whirlwind. On
her return to the mooring 1t was discovered the
Weetamoe had also lost her keel. There Is an un-
confirmed report that the Enterprise had her rudder
carried away by contact with a fresh mackerel.
Tuesday-There will be no races between the trial
yachts today. In coming about sharply after leaving
her mooring this morning. the Weetamoe buckled
amidships. She will be repaired as soon as enough
paper tacks arrive. Two sailors have been dismissed
from the Enterprise, II was learned today, for lean
ing against the mast and throwing it 80 degrees off
center.
wednesday-There were scenes OF great excitement
off here today as the cup yachts prepared for a mid
week race. The conclusion from the starting gun
opened the seams of the Whirlwind. To add to the
annoyances OF the day a sea gull flew through the
maInsail OF the Enterprise, running it beyond re-
pair. There Is now talk OF holding future trials in
doors.
Thursday-The committee in charge OF the trials
off here issued the following statement this morn
ing: There viii be no races today. In the strain Of
a light ground swell during the night all the threads
came out of the Enterprise. Yankee and weetamoe.
The Whirlwind lost most OF her buttons.
Friday-The contenders for the honor Of meeting
Sir Thomas Lipton's yacht in the international races
this September almost completed a race without &C
cident today. 1t was q neck and neck contest in a
four-mile wind. with each yacht losing en- equal
amount Of gear. but just when 1t seemed all four
boats would limp through to the finish a fishline
from a f~isherman's skiff got caught under the Weeta-
moe. The fisherman pulled in his line too suddenly
and yanked her rudder off. It's all very dishearten-
ing.
Saturday-All races between the cup contenders
have been called off pending repairs and alterations.
Inspection today revealed that salt water was causing
three OF the four yachts to unravel.

science of education and the tech
nlQue Of teaching have been devel-
