Frank Foulke of Essex, Nd, in his
Glass D racing runabout Sagana 9th
today took the bouncing Class z
runabout Copperhead, world record
holder of Lakeland. Fla, to the
cleaners in the fifth annual Wilson
Point Mems Club regatta here.
After winning both heats for his
own class, the Maryland garage
owner came out for the second anc
final heat of Glass E, along with Ed
mund Thompson of Dundalk who
drove the Glass c runabout T, M
Special. Sagana VIII led all the way
and Thompson was second.
Copperhead, driven by c. A. Pierce
Of Lakeland, was very poor third
The victory for Foulke was particu-
larlv impressive, since Copperheae
holds both 1-mile and 5-mile worlo
marks for E racing runabouts.
The radically y-designed Florlds
racer, a product of West Coas'
plumber, may not have been the
fastest thing afoat here today, but
she was certainly the toughest rid
ing. A sharp, rocker-type hull, Wltf
the driver sitting ahead of the en-
CINE, keeps the boat out Of the water
about half the time.
Foulkes speed for the smile race
AGAINST Copperhead was 53.239 miles
an hour. It was the fastest time
of any boat for the day, but still
about 7 miles short of the Glass u
record.

GoIdie Presenting New Look With an Old Line

The voice sounded familiar.
The violent gesticulations prac-
tically were the patented prop
erty of-but, no. Goldie Ahearn
was a robust character with a
bay window that would have
been a mans pride and joy in
the Victorian era. This gentle
man was a svelte ITO. He looked

enough to step inside the ring
and start boxing himself.

tummy. He looked as good, nay
better than some of the fighters

naturally is promoting the per-
formance.
"A great fight" he assured us.
"A great fight with two opposite
styles in the ring. Hursey's a
puncher and this Hudson is
real clever boxer who's also got
a punch. I'm telling you it'll
make the Louis Walcott fight
look like a preliminary"
We eyed him suspiciously.
Steady dieting may have changed
the general contours OF his
anatomy but it had not altered
his press-agenting style.

preting our thoughts. Il go into

But Herr Ahearn apparently
was not worrying about criticism
