Navy Conquers Arm,
In Two Academies
First Sailing Race
By Malcolm Lomborne. Jr
s,ar staff Correspondent

ANNAPOLIS, Md, April 26.-
Army and Navy rivalry took a new
turn here today as shippers of the
year-old West Point Sailing Clut
met Naval Academy sailors for the
first such event on record.
The score after six races was Navy
1853 points, Army, los.
The sailors from West Point could
not get going in the Nays tricky
14-foot international dinghies, and
the Navy team lead in points all the
way.
Peter Jefferson and Deming Smith
two of Navy's top sailors, between
them totaled 78 points. Smith won
two races, while Jefferson scored
consistently high.
Army's sole win of the day came
in the third race, when Ralph Raabe
led the fleet from the start. Ar
intercollegiate wrestling champion
the Ohio cadet has been sailing less
than year. ! Raabe rolled up a
total of % points.
Top sailor for West Point, how
ever, was Richard Fitzgerald, who
scored 80 points. He learned the fine
points of sailing as star boat skip
per on Lake Michigan.
Army's team competes tomorrow
along with seven other schools, in
Guiding George Washington Univer-
sity, in the Middle Atlantic associate
member championships of the Inter-
collegiate Yacht Racing Association
The cadets flew down from West
Point with 1t. Col. E. j. Stann, officer
in charge of their sailing club.

Navy Crew Suffers Surprise
Defeat by Yale in NJ Opener

handi1y, in the preliminary events
The varsity churned the mile-and-
three-quarter distance In 8 minutes
12.1 seconds, while Nays time was
9 minutes 14.2 seconds. Columbia's
time was a dismal 8 minutes 31.2
seconds.
Yale's triumph was all the, more
surprising because the Ellis, who
were making their debut this year,
| enjoyed the experience of only one
formal meet last season.

Janney Rides Champ
To 10-Length Edge;
Only Three Finish
BY the Assoeiated Press

GLYNDON, Md, April 26.-Stuart
S. Janney, jr., rode his champion
hunter Winton to victory today in
the 51st annual running OF the
Maryland Hunt Cup to clinch the
title of the Free States top steeple-
chase hunter.
More than 10000 spectators, in
cluding the Duke and Duchess of
Windsor, witnessed the event, in
which only three horses finished. 1t
was Winton's third Hunt Cup vic
tory, retiring the trophy.
Janney. recently appointed chair
man of the Maryland State Racing
Commission, brought Winton to the
finish 10 lengths ahead of John
Strawbridge's 13-year-old gelding
Bungtown after 4-mile contest
over % oak fences OF the rolling
Worthington Valley course.
Winton, 13-year-old campaigner
faced his toughest competitor in
Clifton's Duke. ridden by Worthing-
ton Bordley. The Duke was in front
until the last half-mile when he
tossed the gentleman jockey.
Only Seven Start.
Only seven of the IA nominees
started.
Miss Laura Franklin's Roxspur
which finished a slow third, man
aged to survive the grind along
with Winton and Bungtown.
Roxspur refused the 10th Jump
and fell, but his rider, Louis Mel.
Merryman, jr., got him up and con-
tinued the race.
Clifton's Duke took an early lead
at the flagfall and kept pace with
Winston for the first 31a miles.
1T was close between them over
18 barriers, but at the 10Th Winton
took over and had smooth sailing
to the finish line.
The winning time was nine min
utes 27s seconds.
The race climaxed Maryland's
spring series of three point-to-
points. During the saddling, the
Duke of Windsor examined the
seven starters. The Duchess was
watching the race for the first time
since the days she lived in Balti-
more.
Third Hunt for Duchess.
"This is exactly the third time
I've seen the hunt cup" she said.
But the last time was too long
ago to remember"
The Duke left the hillside to
watch the race from one of the
jumps.
Dorothy Lamour, as Mrs. William
Ross Howard Sd of Baltimore, was
hardly recognizable in the crowd,
in tweed suit, walking shoes and
kerchief. But she obligingly signed
a program for 13-year-old John
Diggins of Wallingsford, Pa, when
he explained "its for my girl
friend"
This is my second hunt cup"
Dorothy said, "but I'm still terribly
excited"

Bullet Proof Rallies
From Last Place 10
Take Graw Stake
BY the Assoeioted Press

HAVRE DE GRACE, April 26.-
Coming up from last place, the Vir-
ginia bred Bullet Proof, from the
stables of Mrs NJ. E. Whitney, closed
with tremendous rush today to win
the $50, 0,000-added Chesapeake Stakes
and establish himself as another
threat for Kentucky Derby honors
The chestnut 3-year-old son OF
Stepenfetchit-Shatterproof turned
back nine other Derby eligibles in
the field of IA to win by two lengths
over Secnav from the Mill River
Stable Of Mrs. Barclay Douglas.
Mrs. Ethel DUPONT Weir's Royal
Governor, the 2-to-1 favorite, was
third by neck, while Marlet Stable IS
Kerry-a 30-to-1 shot-was another
two and half lengths back in
fourth.
Overlooked in the wagering by the
crowd of 1880 which witnessed the
program under clear, crisp skies,
Bullet Proof trailed the field midway
in the back stretch.
But Jockey Wayne Wright was
biding his time, and letting the
others battle in the early going. He
began gradually moving up with
Bullet Proof-thirteenth at the half
mile pole, ninth at three-quarters,
and seventh as they turned into the
stretch.
The surprising Kerry had taken a
neck lead at this point from Mrs.
John D. Hertz's Owners Choice, the
pace-setter. Suddenly from nowhere,
Bullet Proof came wide to clear the
leaders, roared down the middle of
the track and from about so yards
out seemed to jump under the wire.
His time for the mile and a six
teenth was 1.4445, and the mutuel
payoff was 5000, $14.6o and s8.40
across the board Secnav paid 1920
for place and $3.50 for show, while
Royal Governor paid 1920 for show

It's an 81-pound cobia or

The fish was caught by H. c.
