speed specialists, but intrepid.
This they demonstrated yester-
day as winners in the Potomac

Great Falls to Sycamore Island.
The brother duo finished in

onds, but it was not breeze.
A couple of teenagers, Grady
Richey and George Boyd, were
hard on the stern of the Ravens
most of the way and finished
seven minutes behind.
Bob Broad of the Dempsey
Canoe Club, propelling a kayak,
was the solo winner in 1.19:35,
the third best time in the entire
affair. Only IL minutes slower
was 1t. Herbert Williams, USN,
of Norfolk.
Although the currents were
strong. there was only one
capsizing, which didn't deter
the victims. They righted the
swamped craft and continued
the race.
A score of canoes and four
kayaks were involved in the COM
petition.
