Good Turn Wins San Vicente Becomes Strong Contender Anita Derby
Old Stormy Menace
To Good News Again
In Ocean Sail
Boot Thot Johnson Sold
Defeated His New One
In Lost Nassau Test
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MIAMI, Fla, Feb. 1.-The yacht
he once owned, Stormy Weather.
may keep Robert w. johnson from
winning his fourth Miami-to-Nas-
sau race.
A dozen crack ocean racers prob
ably will be in the field when the
classic begins February IL, but in
terest centers largely in the fued
between Stormy Weather, now
owned by William Labrot of the
Annapolis Md Yacht Club, and
Johnson's Good News.
johnson won the event three
times in a row with Stormy, trim
54-footer that once captured the
transatlantic race to Norway. be-
fore he decided to sell her to Labrot
and build a new boat.
Stormy Keeps on Winning.
This new boat, the Good News,
was considered the last word in rae
ing yachts and with Rod Stephens
the man who had sailed Stormy
Weather to her greatest triumphs-
at the helm, she looked cinch TO
win last years Nassau test.
Yet somehow Stormy came through
again, beating Good News and
classy field of other racers.
Then Good News set the stage for
this years renewal Of the rivalry
between the two by outsailing
Stormy in the 284-mile st. Peters
burg Havana race.
This year the Good News. flying
the colors Of the New York club. is
ready to challenge again. Once
more Stephens will sail her.
Other Fast Boats in Race.
Although the Stormy Weather
Good News competition has cap
tured the imagination of the yacht
ing world, it is not considered GER
tain here that either will win the
big race. Other fast yachts are en-
tered and any one of several stands
a chance of leading the feet to Mas
sau if it receives the type of winds
especially adapted to its particular
rig.
Three big yawls-Harkness Ed
wards Wakiva from the Devon
Yacht Club in New York, Henry
Fownes' Escapade from the Stam-
ford Conn Club, and Dudley
Sharp's Gulf Stream from Texas
Corinthian Club-are among early
favorites.

W. A. A. Sees Better
Lacrosse Team in
Spite Of Draft
Loses Six 40 Members,
But Goins New ToIent;
Seeks AII-Americos

Looking forward to bigger and
better campaign than that Of last
year, its first in competition, the
Washington A. A. lacrosse team will
gather Tuesday night to plan its
1941 campaign.
The meeting will be held at 8 at
the Force School Building, 1740
Massachusetts avenue NV, and
prospective team candidates and
club members are invited.
Although a half dozen of last
years veterans have been called to
duty with the Army, Coach Joe
Deckman hopes to have an even
stronger team in the field. Reason
for his optimism is the presence of
three Maryland graduates who may
play with the District team.
AH-Americas Invited to Join.
Oscar Navares and Milt Mullitz,
first team all-Americas, and Leo
Mueller, chosen on the second, are
the men, and if Deckman lands
them he will have the nucleus for
one of the strongest attacks in this
sector.
The association also is trying to
| obtain permission to stage home
matches on the polo field. This is a
move contemplated to better ac-
quaint the public with the game,
which appears to be gaining a
stronger foothold in the South At
lantic area. Last year the team
played in the semi-privacy of Cen
trail Stadium and went into the red.
Lost through conscription are
South" Sothoron, Herman Millman,
Jack Cockey, Jim Laughran, Jack
Badenhoop and Ed Fletcher. All
figured prominently in Deckmans S
rebuilding plans.
Six Games Already Arranged.
Among those returning are Rod
ney Brooks, jr., and Jim Kane
Georgetown University; Joe Fer
rarini and Johnny Muncks, goalies;
Oden Bowe, veteran close defense
who played virtually go minutes OF
every match last year; Leo Hantske
Harry Hamilton, Bob Williams, Bill
Badenhoop. Craig Diamond and
Temple FARRELL.
Business Manager Dan Larner has
arranged six matches and hopes to
and four more. Matches with Mary
land, Mount Washington and Johns
Hopkins feature the list. Negotia-
tions are being carried on with Loy-
ola, Duke, North Carolina and the
Baltimore A. c.
