As Mavis had no competitor, Adelaide, one of the 1894 
21ft. Herreshoff fin-keels, was pitted against her. In the 
25ft. class Ox, the champion 21-footer of last season, was 
matched against Sayonara and Alcedo. Three of the 
Manhasset raceabouts showed up; Mist arrived too late 
to start. 
The preparatory signal was given at 2:10, and the first 
class got away five minutes later. The first leg was a 
reach, the second a run and the third a beat. Adelaide 
was first to cross the line, but Mavis soon took the lead, 
which she held to the finish. Adelaide was handicapped 
on the second leg of the course by not having a spinnaker. 
In the 25ft. class Ox got the best of the start, Alcedo 
crossed next and Sa}^onara last. 
Arizona was first to cross in her class, closely followed 
by Lambkin and Bab. Lambkin, handled by Mr. Harry C. 
Ward, won out in her class. At the end of the first 
round Mavis, Ox, Lambkin and Prize were leading the 
other boats in their classes and were the winners. Al- 
though the southwest breeze was never strong, it held 
quite true throughout the contest, making an ideal day 
for a race. The -summary follows:
