Destroyers Sighted.
Seven four-s stack destroyers were
sighted heading for sea on the
Chesapeake and Delaware Bays in
two days time, Spindrift's crew re-
ported. That was only a few days
after President Roosevelt announced
the sale of destroyers to Great Brit
ain, and presumably the four stack
ers were then on their way to
Canada.
After rounding the cape, all hands
voted to sail on, and 38 hours after
leaving Ocean City they dropped
anchor in quiet cove on the Great
Wicomico River below the Potomac.
There were no telephone communi-
cations available there, and not until
several days later on arriving at
West River did they get word home.
That was a mistake, the boys ad-
mitted. BY then parents were be-
coming increasingly worried.
Bargain for Gas in Bay.
Spindrift's engine worked only on
rare occasions and then usually
when there was little use for it. Once
they sailed up alongside an old bay
schooner numbering up the middle
Of the Chesapeake and bargained for
5 gallons of gasoline. They got
the gas, leaving behind a grizzled
captain scratching his head in
amazement

Great Field of 745 Outboords
To Compete in Regatta Here;
Ny Sin Arrives Monday

Unusual interest displayed in the
outboard races of the Presidents S
Cup Regatta scheduled September
27, 28, 20 comes as gratifying news
to the Regatta Race Committee,
headed by R. Aubrey Bogley. 1t was
announced by Bogley today that an
all-time record field of 145 will COM
pete in the outboard events opening
the three-day power boat classic.
The las is far and away the great
est number of entries in the 14-year
history of the regatta. Bogley points
out, but most significant is the fact
that in F Class, the open race, won
last year by Clint Ferguson of
Waban, Mass. there are "a entries,
almost triple the number that faced
the barrier in 1889
Five or six years ago outboard
pilots were content with 80 miles an
hour, but today they want co."
Chairman Bogley said.
He added: LAS proof John Kov-
acevich Of Arvin, Calf, who with
R. v. Collins of Los Angeles, will
be the first two Californians ever
to compete in our regatta, drove his

world record in the national cham
pionships at Worcester the other

Gar Wood, jr., broke the record
in AL with 44.709 for 5 miles.
Worth Boggeman raced 45.396 in

Vincent also broke a record with

Kovacevich will compete in Glass

Potomac Sailors SpIit
Over CIo,ins Daie
And Twin Races
Some Feel October Is
Too EorIy to Finish;
Compete Sunday

Opposition to winding up the fall
series of Potomac River Sailing As
sociation races october 13, following
an executive order of the associa-
tons ruling body this week, was
registered yesterday by sailing en-
thusiasts objecting to series only
three week ends long.
The fall series, local sailors learned
Wednesday, will begin Sunday with
a double-header scheduled of Alex
andria, Va. The following week
therell be no race, as the power
events of the Presidents Cup Re-
gatta take over the Potomac.
Two Double headers Slated.
Another double-header is slated
October 6. while the fall series will
conclude October 13 with two races.
Association officials, according to
best information supplied, feel that
fall calendar that calls for a single
race a Sunday will find competition
crowding into the frost-bite season
when only the most enthusiastic
shippers dare come out.
They believe Washington sailors.
particularly those who have had an
extensive summer on the Chesapeake
Bay circuit, are ready to call it
quits by the middle of October.
Offer Another Angle.
Another school of thought-those
who sail only on the Potomac-feel
that the projected series does not
afford them all the good sailing often
experienced on the Potomac during
October. Others, in addition, have
registered complaints of having TO
sail series exclusively of double
headers.
One member of the opposition puts
it this way:
You would think the fall series
was dose of bad medicine, some
thing We would have to get over
with in quick order"
Both the spring and fall series of
the association consists of six races,
usually sailed once a week. unless
weather caused postponement
Sundays races are set for II am.
and pm.
