MunceY, Miss Century, in 'Rut'
BY CHARLES covELL
star stafi Writer

The big, unlimited hydro
planes that have been racing
off Hams Point for the last
two days are on their way to
Reno for the Lake Tahoe races
September % and 80 but there
will be no attempt to divorce
Miss Century 81 from her ma
tional high point championship.
With five straight victories. in
cluding the Presidents Cup,
she's got it.
Like the Yankees, you half
pull for Miss Century and half
for the underdogs. You wouldn't
like to see such string broken
but you would enjoy watching
someone else win for a change.
In repeating her 1861 Presi-
dents Cup victory yesterday.
Willard Rhodes hydroplane
from Seattle set a new world
record. Driver Bill Muncey put
her 1000 horses over the As
mile course at an average 109.-
157 mile-per-hour clip, the
fastest three-heat pace ever set.
Strangely enough, it broke
a mark set by the Presidents
Cup runnerup, Tahoe Miss,
driven by Chuck Thompson.
who won the $4,000 trophy in
1850. 1851, 1852 and 1860 in
other craft.
Bad Day for Some
Before Owner Bill Harrah Of
Reno had her painted red,
white and gold, Tahoe Miss
was the last Maverick. built
in 1859. AS such she set both
45-mile and 90-mile race rec
ords at Pyramid Lake, New,
and In the Gold Cup at Seattle.
II Saturday was a day of
disaster for the big boats, with
Miss q. S. l, Notre Dame and

one reason or another and Miss
D. c. unable to qualify, yester-
day was just as bad.
The day started peacefully

Miss u. S. /, Miss Lumberville
and Such Crust ", all from
Detroit; Fascination I from
Seattle, and Miss D. c., which
finally qualified, were picked

pointed out, and is somewhat

and linebacker, had been nurs-

The co-captains. End Paul
Munley and Tackle Cliff Botyos,
left the game within a couple
plays of each other with some
thing like 5 minutes having
elapsed. Munley hurt a knee
and didn't return to the game.
Botyos was kicked in the head

Cindrich suffered a knock on
the head and later a knee in

a 6-6 tie,. was the most
damaging to CIV.
Back Breaking Straw
The loss Of Munley and
Botyos hurt u.s." Camp agreed,
but we think we would have
remained in the game after
that. Then, the kickoff return
was the jab that set US up and
the blocked kick was the knock

A blocked punt, resulting
from a bouncing snap from
center, was the first suffered
by Warren Corbin in his three
college seasons and led to VMI's
last touchdown, scored by the
second team on a 44-yard
push.
If Camp was disappointed In
his squads physical condition,
he must have been dismayed by
the defensive effort. vMI's
average-sized backs, running
behind a bantamweight line,
netted 176 yards rushing to
GW's 98.

run UP the middle because OF
our size; and they didn't"
Camp said. I'VE set up to STOP
their sweeps and passing. but

NEWPORT, r. l.. Sept. IT,
BY asking and being permitted
to take a day off today from
Americas Cup competition. the
Australians have posed two
Questions. The first is whether
they will ask for q day off
between each race during the
rest Of the series and the sec
ond is just what they intend
to do with the spare time.
In her first race Saturday.
Gretel seemed to move we'll
with Weatherly during the
first few minutes before the
breeze increased above II knots.
AS the wind strengthened she
died.
This has pretty well estab-
lished the fact, which was
suspected by yacht critics for
more than a month. that Gretel
is a light-weather boat, despite
some conflicting claims from
the Australian camp.
The man who might be able
to answer what can be done
with Gretel'S, spare time is Alan
Payne, her designer. However,
Alan, like the other Australians,
isn't talking.
Boat Repaired
Yesterday the Aussies re-
paired their parted backstays
and rehung the boom broken
in practice last week. Today
they are scheduled for a prac-
tice sail but they also have
alerted John Flynn of the New
port shipyard that they might
wish to haul Gretel during
the day.
Payne appears to face the
opposite problem to the one
which Ted Hood had with
Nefertiti late in the American
trials.
Gretel will not go in a breeze
Nefertiti wouldn't move unless
the breeze blew-she was DOR
mant until the wind reached
above IL knots.
The obvious answer in such
a situation is either to take on
or take off lead ballast. The
former can stiffen a craft in a
breeze, the latter will tighten
her so she'll move faster in
gentle winds.
Using Day Off
To make these changes re-
quires at least "a hours and
remeasurement. T at means
making use of a day off. Hood
declined to ask for such a day
during the late trials, reputedly
feeling the selection committee
would not look with favor on
such a request to make a late
change in his boat.
On the other hand, 1t is un-
derstood that Hood had decided
to take some lead out of the
compartments in Meier tits
keel. Unfortunately for Hood,
Weatherly was named the de-
fender August 25 so Payne's
problem would be to add bal
last to Gretel in order to stiffen
her for a breeze. This lead
probably would be placed deep
in her bilge above the keel, for
unlike Nefertiti, her outside
lead has no compartments.
Easy to RemeaSure
If Gretel's designer should
take such action, she would
have to be remeasured as to her
flotation marks. This would not
be hard to do because the Off
cial measurer, Bob Blumen-
stock, already is in Newport

BY RICHARD FRYKLUND
Star staff Writer

After an intensive INTEL
ligence study of this summers
puzzling military buildup on
the Red mainland Of China,
both American and National
ist Chinese officials in Taipei
now conclude it had two basic
purposes:
First, it was in large part
a routine adjustment Of Com
munist forces to keep step with
the shift IN the external threat
from the north to the south.
And. second, it put more
loyal troops in q position to
hold down the possibly rebel
lious people of South China,
Movement speeded Up
For several years there has
been a gradual shift Of Com
munist military forces from the
north to the south Of China.
This summer. however, large
numbers of soldiers suddenly
began pouring into the prov
inces opposite Formosa.
There was considerable pub
lie speculation that the Com
munist regime either was
preparing for an attack on For
mosa or was preparing to re-
-sist a Nationalist attack on
the mainland.
The Nationalist Chinese in
telligence apparatus, which
works with great effectiveness
on the mainland, went to work
to find out the real reason.
Using all Of the traditional
methods Of espionage plus
modern techniques Of electron-
in evesdropping, the National
lists began to count and identi-
fy actual units taking part In
the shift and analyzing their
purpose.
Today they have the shift
pretty well sorted out.
Not as Big as Thought
The buildup was not as big
as originally speculated, they
discovered. The area opposite
Formosa originally had about
10000 Communist troops.
Speculation was that the num-
bers were going up to 100000
or 500, 900 men.
The count now is at about
$4,000. though the buildup
apparently Is continuing slow
ly.
Most Of the men are going
into permanent barracks. In
fact, the Communists have

MIG-15s and It's, but none of
the hot new MIG-19s have
been seen in the south. Pilots
who have detected have been
poorly trained. The National
lists have F-86s, F-100S and one
squadron Of F-l04s "a Mig-19
equivalent).
The Red navy is small,
coastal and apparently with
out a useful amphibious force
The Nationalists have a 10000
man amphibious force, plus
nine destroyer5 and destroyer
escorts. Training levels are
good for that part of the
world.
There is a 25,000-man ma
rine corps which had valuable
experience supplying the Que
moy beaches during the 1858
shelling.

Revolt Possibility Is Factor

built hundreds of barracks that
have not yet been filled.
This indicates the men are
not planning to move rapidly
either to attack or defend and
it indicates also that more
troops viii arrive.
Mostly Ground Troops
They are largely ground
troops. Air units actually are
being drawn back from coastal
areas. This could indicate
they are pulling out of range
Of Nationalist fighter planes
and getting ready to attack
but this hypothesis does not
square with the apparent fact
that the air force in South
China is not being reinforced
There is no naval buildup
on the coast.
While they are deployed nei-
ther to attack nor defend, the
Communist troops still. serve
a useful purpose. They are IN
the provinces where civilians
have rioted in recent months
and where the food shortage Is
thought to be the most seri-
Gus.
The South Chinese have Oft
en- been rebels. and tradition
ally troops born, raised and
stationed in the north have
been brought down to super
wise them.
The regular southern SOL
diers apparently are reasonably
well fed. but they can see that
their families and friends are
hungry. Also, the home-guard
type soldiers are on short ra-
tons.

ALTERS BEGIN DRIVE TO RAISE FUNDS FOR KINGS LAKE CAMP

To help raise their share of the cost of adding the new kit chen to Kings Lake Camp, All members in the Valley are sell ing 1862 annual memberships in Kings Lake Camp Associa- tion. Memberships are $2.00 per person. A badly needed new kitchen will be in use at the camp this year.
 The users group voted to pro-rate the cost of the kitchen among the groups as an assess ment, rather than increase camp dues. The total All as- sessment is near $600.00 with $l50.00 of this amount to be paid annually.
 Kings Lake Camp is operat- ed by a non-profit association similar in structure to the Val ley Hospital Association. It is the hope of the board of direc- tors that many more valley people will become activ e members of the association.
