SHAMROCK HITS

s2 In Just two months ShamrocE
V, Thomas Lipton's 1880 cnai
lenger for the famous Americas
Cup, will have her first test when
she competes in the Royal Har.
4 w1ch Club regatta. Next month
:: on the 14th, the Shamrock v will
!. be launched at the yards OF
Camper and Nicholson at Cos.

~ The latest word from England
and the latest photographs of the

z that work has progressed satisfac
storily and the date set for the
launching will find the boat in
readiness for that event.
There is, naturally, much
interest in the progress of the
building of Shamrock v,
which will make the fifth at
tempt to lift the Americas
Cup.
In this country the four yachts
which are to vie for the honor of
meeting Shamrock v in defense
of the coveted cup are rapidly
being brought along for early
spring launchings, and as the can
didates for the defense have
taken on form and definiteness,
: speculation has grown among
yachtsmen here regarding the
: general aspects of Shamrock v.
- Those who have seen Shain-
rock v under course of conStruc-
tion have high degree of regard
9 for the job which her designer.
! George E. Nicholson, has accom-
: pished. AS is generally known,
Shamrock v is of center-boa de.
sign. She will be 81 feet long
fon the water line and will carry
q mast 100 feet tall.
The main stick, however,
will be only $50 feet tall, SUI
4 perimpOSed by a 1O-foOt top
- mast.
Some time in July Shamrock
Y will leave for the United States.
The cup races are to be staged
off Newport, r. l., beginning Sep
{ tember 13. Between the launch
ing date and the cup races there
will be several races for the chal-
: lenger abroad.
: The first of these, aside from
the Royal Harwich Club regatta
is scheduled for May 28 and
others will be staged thereafter
up to June 9. These have been
arranged by various clubs on the
Solent. Later in June, on dates
not yet decided upon, Shamrock
v will race on the Clyde near Bel
fast.
Shamrock v will be sailed in
races here for the cup by the
veteran Capt. Ernst CNeO Heard.
Her home port will be at the
Royal Ulster Yacht Club, Belfast,

what he considers a mightier ag-

To the Washington boys it will
be a case of killing two birds with
one stone. Sunday bowling is per

match is scheduled for Sunday,
March 80, which is the day after
the main bulk of Washington
plnmen contribute their share to
the national tournament. All that
the Grand Palace men need to
do is stop over an additional day
and shoot the match.

lars. Bill TatO, the mighty

AS reserve strength he has
picked Jack Otto, twelfth among

Il consented. Philip, when told about

And so the round of pleasure had
begun. We had gone out two or
three evenings week for over a
month to dances, parties, socials and
theatres. Sometimes I shuddered with
a sudden spasm of fear as we swept
across the dance floor at the Dream

reveal in no way my secret feelings.
I was loyal to my husband, felt
grateful to him for his manifold
kindnesses and courtesies and would
rather have cut off my right arm
than offend him in any way or give
him cause for the slightest suspicion.
Husband Out Late
Then John began to be buster,
making and installing sets. His work
kept him out at all hours. Some
times he would have to stay in near
by towns overnight. 1t was business,
OF course, and necessary, but it left
me alone q great deal. John, being

but realized that since I was ten

Phil Avows Love
Slowly, inevitably, Philip, who was
80 and thus nobody's fool, had be-
gan to show evidence that he was
aware of my comeliness. One eve
ming as we were boating on the lake
in Roosevelt Park he had spoken out
with throbbing intensity, leaning for
ward on his oars and gazing earnest
ly into my face.

you that you are the most beautiful

che had bestowed upon me in the up
per hall an hour before I felt that
I couldn't go on with the situation
any longer. Caught between the two
horns of a dilemma, my position was
growing hourly more intolerable and
untenable. I felt that I should feign
sickness, faint, do anything rather
than trust myself again alone with
Philip Devious. And then there came
the tempting, devilish inner voice
again, urging me to taste of the joy
of his company just one more eve
ming.
And so, at nine thirty we went out
together. I was shaking with sup

had noticed!
A Forbidden Cabaret
John always liked to have me home
by midnight and when it got to be
that hour I suggested to Philip that
we go. I was getting rather uneasy
anyhow, because he had been sitting,
staring fixedly into space for about
ten minutes.
"No, We can't go back now" he
said, placing his hand insinuatingly
on my knee. I drew back hastily and /,
felt a strange sinking of the heart.
He continued: Lets go over to the
