"A LREADY attaining international
prominence as a sports event and
listed as the most important regatta

lean Power Boat Association and the
National Outboard Association, the
Presidents Cup Regatta, to be held
September 26-29, with more than 125
firms and individuals providing f1nan-
cial support and more than so civic
organizations in active sponsorship,
bids fair to become the outstanding
social and recreational event of the
year here.
In addition to the permanent
trophies held over from previous re-
gattas, such as the famed Presidents
Cup. the Hearst. Palais Royal and
Horning Trophies, number already
have been added, among which are
the beautiful sombrero de charro in
pure silver, recently presented by the
Mexican government, the replica of
the record breaking ocean liner Nor
mandie, to be presented by the French
Lines and the Commodore Baltz
Trophy presented by the Balfour Co.
Interest in the new 225-cubic- inch
hydroplane championship event has
mounted considerably due to the dar-
ing driving of such spoftsmen as
DR.. Cecil Bagley, Baltimore; Andy
Crawford and Tommy Keane of this
city, and S. Mortimer Auerbach and
Edison Hedges, Atlantic City, in races
rival the Presidents Cup race itself
In expectation Of thrills and records.
