Nation 5 Foremost
Collegiate Sailors
Vie al Annapolis
By MoIcolm Lomborne, Jr.

The Nations outstanding col.
legiate sailors compete tomorrow
and Sunday at the United statei
Naval Academy for the Henry A
Morss Memorial Trophy, emblematit
Of the national intercollegiate
dinghy champion.
At least II schools-fiye from the
East, an equal number from the
Middle West and one from the Pa
cific Coast-give the event the most
representative championships stag
ed in 12-years.
This is the first time the regatta
has been held in the Chesapeake
Bay country and is the climax to
busy year for collegiate skip
pers.
AS curtain raiser, the intercol-
legiate Yacht Racing Association
will stage a graduates race this
afternoon-sometimes referred to as
the "old mans regatta" Racing is
for the Alan r. Lukens III Trophy
and Is open to sustaining members
of the association and graduates
who have competed as shippers IN
major ICYRA events.
This race should bring together
some Of the best sailors seen any
where. Possible starters include
Gardner Cox, sailing coach OF
George Washington and twice win
ner of the Morss Trophy while at
Princeton, and G. Sherman Hoyt, a
Brown alumnus who has been SAIL
ing for more than 50-years IN
everything from dinghies to class
j sloops.
Coast Stars. Entered.
For the championships, there will
pe such aces as Lowell North and
Tom Scripps of San Diego State.
Scripps finished third in the 1912
star class internationals and North
shared the 1945 star champion
ships with Malin Burnham.
Yale's two shippers are Robert
Coulson, national junior sailing
champ in 1910 and 1941, and Bobby
Monetti, current champion Of the
Atlantic one-design class on Long
Island Sound.
Brown is another favorite, due to
Frederick Wilson, president of the
ICYRA, and Charlie Ill, Barnegat
Bay sailor.
Because they will be sailing in
home waters and familiar boats,
Navy may put on good show. The
midshipmen count on Sailing Capt
Dave Cluett, Jack Baltar and
Harvey Conover, jr. This trio won
the America Trophy for the Middle
Atlantic championships last week
end.
Morss Competition Expands.
Other schools competing are Coast
Guard, Pennsylvania, Michigan
Purdue, Northwestern, Ohio State
and Denison College.
Until this year. the Morss compe-
tition virtually has been an East
Coast regatta, with the exception OF
Michigan participation.
But, it's now nationwide In scope,
thanks to a series of meetings in
New York last winter. At that
time, the ICYRA, Midwest Cole
giate Sailing Association and the
Pacific Coast ICYRA formed the
Union OF ICYRA. And the. parent
body decided its Morss Trophy to the
new union.

Annapolis Anchorage
Dispute Is Settled
Dy he ksseeiaisd Press

ANNAPOLIS, Nd, May 14.-That
Navy-Annapolis dispute over harbor
anchorage areas was all but written
OF as . thing Of the past, with all
hands satisfied. today.
With only one adjustment, six
charted areas were agreed upon at
q hearing before Col. w. w. Wan
namaker, Army district engineer.
The settlement was approved by
the Annapolis Mayor and Council,
Severn River Naval Command and
local boat builders.
Changes originally sought by the
naval command. which includes the
Naval Academy. frst were protested
vigorously by yachtsmen and boat
yard operators. A compromise was
reached quickly in February and
the hearing carried 1t out.
The one adjustment extends one
area closer to q seawall at the south
end Of the academy.

fore and after dark all along Chesa-
peake Bay points, although angling
for them during the past week has
been nothing to brag about. A warm
sunny week end should improve the
situation greatly.
The blues struck in off Nags Head
N. c., last week after having been
reported earlier at Hatteras ano
Ocracoke. Most of the fish are small
running from l to 2 pounds. Largest
catch reported to date was a haul
of 1865 made by group of four from
Manassas, Va. Not many channel
bass we're taken this past week.
Spinning, the new method OF
casting which is taking the angling
world by storm, makes another
step forward with the soft nylon
monof1lament line now being manu-
factured in this country. Hereto
fore, American-made nylon mono
filament was too wiry to be salts
factory on any spinning reel, except
those with completely inclosed
spools. Fishermen now will be able
to obtain nylon monofilament lines
in pound tests of three, four, six,
eight and 10, adaptable to any type
of spinning reel. These lines are
not affected by fresh or salt water,
will not rot and absorb practically
no water. The smaller test lines
give the angler a line so fine 1t
hardly can be seen in the water.
Another line, which we predict
will become popular with trollers, Is
the new braided Monel metal line,
which is being made as light as g.
pound test. This line is rust proof
even in salt water, and should be a
boon to deep trollers in that it will
eliminate the use of so much lead.
Also it overcomes the factors which
were Objectionable lin the , solid
metal line.

The Chesapeake Bay area ex-
poets to have two sailors in the
June / finals at Larchmont. N. Y,
to qualify the United States repre-
sentative for the Olympics in Great
Britain, starting July 20. The
Larchmont winner will race in the
British Firef1y class, a sloop-rigged
dinghy designed by Uffa Fox.
Jack Smith, one Of George Wash

qualified for the United States
finals by virtue Of being high point
shipper at last weeks America Tro-
ply series at Annapolis. rFiends OF
Jack at G. w. are thinking up ways
to finance his trip abroad, should
he win at Larchmont.
Meanwhile, Bill Heintz, president
of Chesapeake Bay Yacht Racing
Association, has sent out notices to
all Bay clubs asking them to send
representatives to an elimination
series tentatively set for Annapolis
May %. The winner of this would
join Smith on Long Island Sound.
But, should no clubs respond by
tomorrow, Heintz plans to desig-
nate a Bay representative. A safe
bet for this spot would be Gardner
Cox, 1910 and 1941 intercollegiate
dinghy champ from Princeton.
Cox, a member Of Potomac River

ington area.
Twenty-six drivers, including

The writer has received word on
the long lost Comet feet at Piraeus,
Greece, thanks to a Washington
man now assigned to the American
Greek Aid Mission in Athens, as
housing advisor. George L. Reed
writes that the majority of an
original feet of 20 Comets survived
bombings and Nazi occupation.
He also discloses that King Paul
Of Greece, while still crown prince,
owned one of the boats in prewar
days. Reed is sailing a Comet that
was hidden from the Nazis under a
pile of barrels in jute factory.
Seems as though the sloop suffered
only a broken skeg and damaged
deck, but is now good as new.
Jacob Crane, Government hous-
ing official and sailing enthusiast
here and at Annapolis, came to
Reeds rescue in supplying him with
a suit Of American-made sails.
Sails on the Greek Comets are
probably more suited to work boats.

Air Force Still Eager
To Obtain Legislation
Which Failed 10 Pass
By james J. Strebio


The Eightieth Congress adopted
% bills affecting civil and military
aviation. 1t was record amount
of flying legislation and a peace
time high in money authorized for
air power.
But even so Congress left some
important measures for its next ses-
sion. The Air Force is interested In
several of the passed-over bills.
One of the most important would
establish by law a 70-group Air
Force, backed by adequate personnel
and f1ve-year program of air re-
search, development and purchase.
The House adopted it unanimously,
but it died in the Senate Armed
Services Committee.
Bills to Be Pressed Further.
An appropriation act was popu-
larly but mistakenly known as the
"70-group bill" Actually it merely
provided money and contract au-
thority to get started toward the To-
group goal but was not concerned
with the composition of the Air
FOTCS. IL DeCdIIlG law.
The Air Force was interested also
in bills to establish an air warning
system, a guided missile proving
ground and giant air engineering
development center, all of which
died in committee. They will be
pushed at a future session.
Another important bill, intended
to let the Air Force pay for develop
ment of transport planes usable in
either military or commercial serv-
ice, failed in the closing hours of
the session.
Jet Transport Delayed.
1t delayed the start of American
development of jet transport, since
no airplane manufacturer is pre-
pared to finance such a project. The
British meanwhile have gone ahead
in that field and are flying expert
mental transport planes with both
pure jet and gas turbine-propeller
engines. The United States has not
yet started to design one.
President Truman vetoed one
aviation bill intended to foster de-
velopment of lighter-than-air craft
(dirigibles) by transferring respon-
sibility from the Navy to the Mari
time Commission.
Congress failed to act on major
civil aviation measure, intended toI
reorganize the Government agencies
handling flying matters.
Weather Studies Authorized.
However, it authorized air parcel
post, operation Of ocean weather
stations by the Coast Guard, expan-
sion of the National Advisory Com
mittee for Aeronautics, establish
ment of the Civil Air Patrol as a
civilian auxiliary to the Air Force,
and directing a Weather Bureau
study of thunderstorms.
Congressional activities affecting
aviation which got most attention
concerned military appropriations.
Spurred by the reports of two
boards, one appointed by President
Truman and the other by Congress
itself, both House and Senate raised
the ante for air power by $500, 0,0oo,-
900 more than was recommended by
the Budget Bureau. Both Mr.. Tru-
man and Secretary of Defense For
restal opposed the increase in war
plane funds.
In the end, Congress appropriated
or gave contract authority for Air
Force and Navy plane purchases
totaling s3,198, 100000. This will buy
some 1882 aircraft, to be delivered
| in three or four years.
