Palmer Becomes Confused.
Palmer. in winning the 1855 class,
thrilled thousands of spectators. In
the first heat, Palmer was leading
the field at the lower turning mark
He became confused over what was
the course from there on and went
off in the direction of the yacht
Potomac. Two other drivers fol-
lowed like obedient children. When
Palmer finally got himself straight
ened out, the rest of the field was
way ahead. He finished last this
time.
In the afternoon, things began
going his way First off, the WIN
ner of the first race, w. Earle
Orem's cyclone from Cambridge,
Md, failed to get started in the
second heat. Tommy Boy and
Clarence Collins Shirl, from Nor
folk, then began a duel for first
place. On the last turn before the
finish, Palmer dived fast for the
buoys and came out of the turn
with his racer doing better than
go miles an hour. He got the check
cred flag, about two boat lengths
ahead of Collins.
This gave Palmer q total Of $50
points and Collins second, with
525 points. Palmer also came out
for the unlimited speedboat race,
got big wash from several fast
225s, then broke his steering cable.
He proceeded around the two-lap
course with the broken cable in one
hand and the steering wheel in the
other. He finished 7th and last.

AMARILLO, Tex, Aug. 2.-Any
suspicion that Sammy Baugh, the
Redskins mellowing siege gun, would
be tossed into the discard this year
was emphatically dispelled today by
Coach Turk Edwards, Baugh still
is the key man in the Tribes Of
fense. although Edwards feels that
the improved player situation will
take much of the burden off his
shoulders.
I'm going to let Sam do less prac-
ticing and more playing this year"
Edwards said today. Hell 60
through the same training routine
as everyone else In camp, but when
the season opens I only want him to
practice enough to keep sharp. AS
soon as he's had enough I'll chase
him out of the ball park for the rest
OF the day. I don't see any sense in
wearing him out in practice. I want
him to save everything for games
and If this plan works out there's
no telling how long Baugh will last"
One of the features of the train
ing session getting under way Mon
day at Occidental Junior College in
Los Angeles should be the Jim Youel
VS.. Baugh battle for the signal call
ing role, but Edwards is counting on
Youel's improvement to help pro-
long Sans playing career. He hopes
Y.ouel will be able to step in and
take over much of the offensive
work. enabling the Board of Strategy
to save Sam for critical situations
calling for his sharp. swift passes.
IT the scheme works out, Edwards
figures he'll have two top-fligh
quarterbacks to throw at the oppo-
sition.
Jim was too green to be of much
help last year." the coach said. THE
best Illustration of that was in the
Green Bay game at Denver. Baugh
started the game and in eight plays
we had touchdown. Then we
yanked him and tried Youel and
Jack Jacobs and it didn't look the
same team. When Baugh went
back in at the start of the second
half we started to click again and
it was plain to us then that Sam
would have to carry most of the
load'
Edwards thinks Youel improved
during the season, especially near
the end when he saw more action,
and that he'll be smarter and more
sure of himself this year. Youel
himself is looking forward to the
AZ campaign. He doesn't think his
work last year rated any medals,
but he has a feeling this is going
to be good season.

Hydrop|anes in Final
Tuneups This Week
For Gold Cup Race
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Aug. "A fleet of
sleek-hulled craft loaded with horse
power moves into New York waters
this week to tune up for a crack
at speedboating's choicest prize,
the International Gold Cup.
The historic trophy, now held by
Guy Lombardo, 44-year-old band
leader, goes on the block for the 10th
time when a score of the fastest
hydroplanes in the country leap
away in the 90-mile classic over a
three-mile course in Rockaway Inlet,
Jamaica Bay, next Sunday after
noon. Lombardos home club, the
South Shore Yacht Club of Free
port, l.. l., is sponsoring the event.
Leading the cnallengers is a con-
tingent of dozen craft from De-
troit, the inland motorboat capital
which regards the Gold Cup as vir-
tually its own. Detroiters are bank
ing on a victory for one of their
entries to return the regatta to their
shores. :,
.Lombardo, an "outsider'-at least
he was regarded by the veterans
as such-eXercised the winners pre-
rogative in taking the regatta site
away from Detroit after capturing
the 1916 race, his first Gold Cup
attempt. The Detroit challengers
are out this year to assuage that
blow to their civic pride.
Last years first postwar revival
of the Gold Cup at Detroit drew an
estimated 250,O0O spectators. The
Jamaica Bay site will accommodate
three times that many, since it is
f1anked by the three -mile-long cross
bay parkway which will be closed to
traffic and used as a grandstand
area.

ST. MICHAELS, Md, Aug. a.
Joe Palmer of Washington, driving
his blue hulled 135 cubic inch
hydroplane Tommy Boy, and a pair
of Baltimore drivers took major
honors in the power phase of the
Miles River Yacht Clubs annual
regatta which ended here late today.
The event-filled day also saw a
new world competitive mark for
Glass l service runabouts set by
Jennie Lee II. driven by Richard
Lovett of Ocean City, N. J. In the
final heat for the Miles River
Trophy, Lovett was clocked at 47.466
mph for the 10 miles. He thus
broke his old mark of As mph, set
in 1941 in the same boat. Vincent
Schwing, Baltimore automobile
dealer, swept both Divisions I and
II of the fast 225-cubic-inch hydro
planes and lead seven-boat field
in the unlimited speed boat race
His fastest speed was 60.02 mph
in the final heat of Division I.
Bramble Victorious Again
John Bramble, also Of Baltimore,
won the Miles River Trophy for
unlimited displacement runabouts
in Pep Nv with ease. He took two
f1rsts yesterday and led the small
field of four boats again today. This
is the second leg on the prize for

boats fought light winds and a
strong tide over two courses here
in the river and out in Eastern

year of Oliver Dukes log canoe
Noddy for the famed Governor
Cup. Duke Adams of Baltimore
was her skipper.
This prize and other trophies

of yachts of all descriptions were
