FRIDAY, AUG. 23 - 
To-day was one to warm the cockles of the 
racing sailors’ heart. A piping wind rattled 
everything unbattened and kept taut to the 
breaking point all windward stays. The star 
event of the day was the race for the Childs 
trophy, which was won by Grayjacket in Class 
Q after a tight race with the Camp flyer, M. and 
F. II., Windward from Larchmont, the defender, 
finishing last of the six entrants. The Sea and 
Sound trophy raced for by three Bayside birds 
and three Bensonhurst dories was won by a bird, 
Skylark. There was too much weather for the 
motor speed boats, so they did not race. The 
day ended, as days should, at 11:59 p. m. after 
an old-time minstrel show, much appreciated.

SUNDAY, AUG. 25 - 
The best race week thus far credited in the 
annals of the Atlantic Y. C. is due greatly to 
Commodore J. Stewart Blackton, which ended 
to-day with a club run to Prince’s Bay for the 
trophies offered by Commodore G. R. Le Sau- 
vage, Bensonhurst Y. C.; Dr. C. L. Atkinson, 
Rear Commodore McIntosh, Crescent Athletic 
Club; Captain Hendon Chubb, Atlantic Y. C.; 
Captain Sever, Marine and Field Club, and the 
Atlantic Y. C. The start was made from 
Prince’s Bay at 4:20 o’clock in the afternoon. 
Spider was the first of the Q class to finish, 
but was disqualified for fouling Alice. Cyric 
had a sail-over in the S division, and Mouse 
won a similar prize in the X class. On corrected 
time, the Bensonhurst handicap class was won 
by La Cubana. Gunda took the second division 
of the regular Gravesend Bay handicap class.

Gloucester Y. C. 
Gloucester, Mass., Aug. 24.— In the second 
class Osprey got the best of the start, but on 
going out of the harbor on a beat to the break¬ 
water, Elizabeth overtook and passed her. On 
the second leg to windward Osprey rounded the 
second or westerly mark three minutes ahead 
and increased this steadily on the run home. I11 
the third class Weasel got the advantage of the 
start, with Amoral and Sumaki following closely. 
At the southeast mark Weasel led, with Sumaki 
a close companion, and so on until the run home, 
when she was overtaken at the Barrel Buoy in 
the harbor by Sumaki. Arrow got the best start 
in the 18-foot class, Jane, Tid, Petrel and Priva¬ 
teer following in order. Privateer passed the 
breakwater in the lead, with Tid a half minute 
behind. The second leg was a beat to the west¬ 
ern buoy. Petrel, Jane and Tid stood offshore 
to starboard, while Privateer and Arrow stood 
inshore on the port tack. At this juncture the 
wind shifted to the west, giving the offshore 
boats a big lift, Petrel being the best placed. She 
more than held her own on the run in and fin¬ 
ished with a good margin, Jane slipping into 
second place. Tid protested Jane for alleged 
fouling near Tenpound Island. In the 15-foot 
class Oleta led the procession. The summary:
