Atlantic Y. C. Race Week. 
Aug. 20 opened the race week at the popu¬ 
lar yacht club on the lower bay. Great interest 
was manifested alike by skipper and piazza 
squad. The week offers a considerable and 
varied program of social events and entertain¬ 
ment such as have previously gained an enviable 
reputation for Commodore Blackton and his 
committee, Carlos de Zafra, Chairman, Alvan 
Nickerson and J. Lewis Luckenbach. 
Interest to-day centered principally among 
the larger boats. Joyant and Windward, Class P 
racers, made up the first division. Windward 
was the first to turn the mark, closely followed 
by Joyant. Joyant cut down the lead of Wind¬ 
ward. She could not pass her and lost by 
im. ns. Okee, having no class competitor, 
raced against two of the new Long Island Sound 
schooners. Okee was the first home. The Q 
division had eight entries to race for the $2,500 
Thompson cup. Grayjacket had no great diffi¬ 
culty in scoring the greatest number of points 
on the leg. On corrected time the Long Island 
Sound handicap class was taken by Mist, and 
Blue Hill scored in a similar manner on the 
Gravesend Bay handicap prize. 
Virginia won in Class R and Jade led home 
the Jewel Class boats. Dodo was the first of the 
Bayside Birds to finish, and Cyric scored in the 
S class. The last three divisions are racing for 
the Lipton cup, and the greatest number of 
points was scored by Dodo. The Star Class 
was won by Little Dipper, and Mouse scored its 
usual victory in the X Class. The scores:

WEDNESDAY, AUG. 21. 
Long Island sailors took the majority of 
cups on the second day of the regatta. The wind 
was very light. A south-southwest breeze pre¬ 
vailed during most of the day, ending in a thun¬ 
der squall. As on the opening day only one New 
York Y. C. thirty showed up, while several other 
classes were light. The Windward took her sec¬ 
ond race. Other winners in their classes were; 
Okee, Alicia, Grayjacket, Alert, Little Dipper, 
Mouse, Hamburg, Joy. Jade, Blue Bill, M. and 
F. II. and Curlew. The summary:

THURSDAY, AUG. 22. 
The third day brought the wind-up on serial 
prize events. Grayjacket, F. C. Noble’s wonder¬ 
ful little sloop, won the Thompson cup, Commo¬ 
dore Luckenbach’s Suelew being second. 
For the Lipton cup there is a slight mix-up. 
The Bayside Birds may not be eligible, because 
of their rating. John R. Brophy is to measure 
the boats. If they are eligible, the cup has been 
won by Camp’s M. and F. II., but if they are 
ruled out because they exceed the limitations, 
Dr. C. L. Atkinson takes a second leg with Cyric, 
which won to-day’s race handily with M. and 
F. II. second, and by finishing first Cyric secures 
a leg on the Marine and Field cup. 
Little Dipper lost to Star Faraway in the 
Star class, but wins the Vice-Commodore Taylor 
cup for having scored most points in the series.
