ABOARD U. s. S. CARPELLOTTT,
July 2.-This 306-foot Navy trans
port was due this afternoon of
st. Davids Head, Bermuda, finish
line to make sure no Newport
Bermuda racers have outdistanced
her and will then turn north for
final check Of leaders positions.
With Roderick Stephens fast sloop
Mustang from New York unsighted
since leaving Newport Saturday, no
chance is being taken that she
may have slipped by in the night.
Moderate seas and wind at no
time higher than 20 knots in the
race so far have been ideal for
the Glass B yacht which is manned
by some of the best ocean racers
in America.
Steaming at IS knots all last
night, Carpellotti has made no con-
tact with any of the "a yachts since
$50 pm. yesterday. At that time
Philip Handelman's Glass B yawl
Chez Chez " Of New York was
sighted and placed 305 miles from
Bermuda and 800 out from Newport.
This placed her not far from the
last known position Of the leading
Glass A yacht. Henry Taylor's de-
Tending champion Burma. She was
last sighted at $3.50 am. yester-
days 800 miles out.
Jacob Isbradtsen's class B sloop
Hother of New York, another fast
B yacht, was sighted yesterday well
back Of Chez Chez. This indicated
the Handelman yacht was the lead
ing contender in class B.
Most of the yachts should be well
east Of the base course, unless taking
long tacks to the west because OF
the southerly wind yesterday. This
morning the wind has come in from
south-southeast right on the nose
United States weather forecasts con-
tinue to tell Of southwest winds
which have failed to materialize.
There still was a chance, however

Injury to Grace Gives Coun

PHILADELPHIA, July !. To
Red Sox Pitcher Dave Ferriss goes
vote Of thanks from Rookie Gil
Coan, who will owe his presence in
Washingtons lineup for the next
few days-and possibly longer-to
one Of Boo's low curves which went
askew.
Ferriss, pitching against the Mats
on Sunday at Boston, clipped Out
fielder Joe Grace on the left ankle
in the ninth inning Of the first game
after Grace had smashed four hitS.
The resultant painful injury forced
Grace from the lineup in the sec
ond game of the double-header and
Coan took over with highly salts
factory results.
On his first appearance at the
plate, Gil blasted home run into
the Mats bullpen and later belted q
line drive double. all of which was
nice nudging in the eyes Of Manager
Ossie Bluege. Coan will be en-
ployed in left field, with Buddy
Lewis shifting back to right field,
pending Grace's recovery.
