"At Benedict when fishing for some

bait, the fishing trip is pretty expensive.
But why isn't 81 an hour fair price

1t was IS for four hours, think. Now
I think IS for five hours is sufficient.

INCIDENTALLY, that 1924 mile
jaunt down the Hudson proved
several things. according to New
York boating experts. First, 1t proved
that it is best conducted on handicap
basis. Secondly, it showed that the
handicapping system used for the first
time was sound. Thirdly, it proved
that over long race the small Glass A
and B engines are more than a match
in reliability for the larger and more
powerful Glass C and F motors.
Thirty of the 65 outboards and three
25-cubic-inch hydroplanes finished-by
far the best showing since the event
was inaugurated back in 1928.

Prince Ferdinand of Lichten-

guest of honor at tea to be
given this afternoon by the first
secretary of the Swiss Legation,
Mr.. Louis H. Michel, in his
apartment at the Galleon.
Prince Ferdinand, who is a
nephew of the reigning Prince
of Lichenstein, came to this
country in charge of the Aus
trian teams entered in the
Olympic Games at Los Angeles
last summer. He spent several
months in California, travelled
extensively in the United States,
and more recently has been in
New York.
The prince is a famous
hunter of big game, and at one
time spent many months in the
Soudan collecting rare game
specimens for a museum
