YANKEE
 ENGLISH WATERS
 AND YACHT RACES
Lambert Vessel is Latest Word in SIOop Class;
 C. F. Adams to Race Her

Boston, April 25.--(UP). YaG- kee, Commodore Gerard E. Lam bert's class sloop, sailed today for England, where she will com pete in series of internationai yachting races this summer
 The Yankee, considered one of the fastest craft in this country though defeated by Harold s. Van- derbilt's Rainbow in elimination tr.als for the defenders role in the last Am merica's cup races, was &C., companied to Boston light by coast guard patrol boat and the Atlantic, Lambert's three-masted schooner-yacht which will convoy her across the Atlantic.
 Personnel
 At her helm was Frank C. Paine, Boston boat designer mad yachts man. He will pilot her across. Her course will be charted by Alfred F. Loomis, New York navigator and yachting writer.
 Lambert was aboard the Atlan- tic, which carried a crew of 22 and three weeks provisions, thought the crossing was expected to be made in approximately fortnight.
 The Yankees first race will be the Royal Harwich Yacht club re- gatta, June 1. In other races, Charles Francis Adams, former secretary of the navy and consid- cred by many Americas premire skipper. will be at the wheel.
 Other members of Yankees af- terguard include John Parkinson, "right-hand man" of Vanderbilt; George Nichols and MT and Mrs William H. Potter.
 Lovely!
 The Yankee, newly-equipped and redecorated, was considered the most luxurious racing yacht ever
 She has a new mahogany deck house and additional skylights. She is equipped with two-way wireless.
 Criticism of Runbow regarding below-deck furnishings cannot be repeated in the csae of Yankee. The layout. in an Americana Georgian style, consists of main saloon, four staterooms, officers quarters. large forecastle and galley.

|IHOLMES HANDICAP
 PLAN WILL AID RACING SCHEDULE
HOrsemen Will Have "A Hours to Decide on
 Entries

Providence, R. l., April 25-Ben Holmes. official handicapper at Narragansett Park, has developed night handicaps that will register an idea in connection with over an immediate hit with horsemen who favor this type of event, as well as MT. Average Racing Fan.
 To date. 1t has been customary to collect entries for this type of event two days before the running of the race. and to publish the weights allotted by the handicap per at a. m. this morning before the race. Inasmuch as those not satisfied with the weight allotted are required to declare out" by 10 a. m., horsemen are thus only allowed a brief two hours in which to digest the handicap and make up their minds whether or not to run their horses.
 Not So Good
 This is a distinct hardship on the trainer. who has to make trip to the secretary's office to see the weights. to make up his mind and. if he decides to start his candi- date. to hustle back to the training track to open up his candidate.
 Under the Holmes plan, entries will be taken three days before the race and weights will be pub lished two days ahead, thus giving the horsemen a full twenty-four hours to accomplish what they previously have been compelled to do in two hours The public will also be given that much additional time in which to study the handi- cap. The plan shows an admirable sympathy for the other fellows problem and Holmes should be widely commended,
 More Ahead
 Walter E. O'Hara today will no- tify horsemen that Narragansett Park will be ready to receive hors- es by Friday, May 10. Ben Holmes. assistant racing secretary and han l dicapper. will report May 1st and his first task will be to wade through the tremendous list of stall applications that await his atten- ton. Ben will notify the stables that are to be accommodated and horses will be shipped in right away.
