By DAVID BREASTED

Washington sailors more
than held their own yesterday
against canny tacticians from
throughout the East in the first
of two days of competition in
the Presidents Cup Regatta.
The event ends today.
Jim Nathanson Of Washing
ton. the national Mobjack,
champion, strengthened his
first mortgage on the class
title yesterday by taking two
straight races handily. Karl
Gerhard of Falls Church was
top man in Comets, while Otello
Meucci of Hyattsville and Tom
Frankenfield Of Silver Spring
completed the sweep.
In the nimble little Penguins,
Len Penso Of Chevy Chase,
was tied for first in the senior
division. while Allen Chauvenet
OF Silver Spring led the juniors
going into today's final race.
In Lightnings, with 81 en-
tries in the largest class IN
fleet of 200, Frank williams
held a respectable third behind
Marbury Fox of Baltimore and
Oliver Filippi Of Englewood,
N. j.
Coast Guard Lieut.. Walt Hall
OF Arlington and Redland
Brown of Washington yester-
day met their match tempor-
arily in r. L. Gibbs Of Toledo,
sailing a new model catamaran
built to international challenge
rules.
Joe Willis, Of Kensington,
In Jet las, took second to the
defending Presidents Gun
champion, Pete Jones Of Man
tolokin, N. ]. Greg Douglas of
Seat Pleasant was right behind
him.
Shippers today hoped for the
same freshening breeze which
Yesterday brought the fleet
into fast action after an ini-
tial calm as dead as the in
SIDE OF a closet. Today's final
races in the 13 classes were
scheduled to start at II am.
on a trianglar course between
the fourteenth street bridge
and a marker off the tip of
Hams Point.
