FOREST AND STREAM. 
[Sept. 2, 1911. 
ond mark of four miles, and windward work 
on the last leg five miles. The yachts were 
started at 1140 o’clock. 
Windward and Cyric were a little too soon 
at the line and had to bear away and this 
allowed Princess to take the best position, with 
Joyant close up and moving well. Addison G. 
Hanan sailed Joyant and with him were E. 
Burton Hart and Commodore W. H. Childs. 
On Windward were Jerome Monks at the tiller 
and R. A. Monks and Walter M. Bealing. The 
first leg was sailed in fast time, as the yachts 
were helped by the tide. Corinthian was first 
to turn the mark at 2:16:12, Joyant was next at 
2:16:42, and Windward next at 2:17:24. Suelew 
led the Q boats and followed Windward. She 
turned at 2:18:10. The others were all close 
up, with Cyric last. Corinthian and Joyant 
carried spinnakers to the next mark, while 
Windward carried a balloon jib, which drew 
wonderfully well and when half the leg had 
been sailed put her in the lead. On this leg 
Suelew held her position, following the 31- 
raters, with Essex, Soya, Nautilus, Alice, 
Princess and Cyric following in the order 
named. 
It was on the windward leg that the racers 
found trouble. The tide was still ebbing, and 
some held out into the bay, expecting to get the 
first of the flood, while others stood in toward 
the Staten Island shore. Windward sailed be¬ 
tween these two extremes, carefully guarding 
the others as much as possible. Princess stood 
out into the bay and then in, and she gradually 
worked into second position. At one time 
Essex was doing well, but she could not hold 
with the others on the windward work. 
Windward steadily drew away from the 
others and found as she sailed that she got 
the leading boat’s luck. The wind hauled just 
a little and let those off shore up considerably 
and then they caught the first of the flood tide, 
which also helped. Windward finished at 
5:22:15, and Princess was then second, but the 
minutes she was allowed slowly went by and 
Princess finished, beaten on corrected time by 
4m. 46s. Corinthian was next. She was flying 
a protest flag and had been in trouble with 
Joyant. Alice followed Corinthian, and then 
came Essex, Soya, Joyant, Nautilus and Sue¬ 
lew. As Cyric was far astern, the committee 
did not wait to time her.

Soya Leads for a Point Cup. 
Early in the season Rear-Commodore G. G. 
McIntosh, of the Crescent Athletic Club, 
offered a point trophy for the Q boats to race 
for. The racing for this prize known as the 
Rear-Commodore cup began with the Crescent 
Athletic Club regatta on June 24, and the scor¬ 
ing was to be similar to that used in scoring 
the championships. To qualify a yacht had to 
start in at least 75 per cent, of the races 
scheduled, and these races were those of the 
Gravesend Bay Association and of the race 
week of the Atlantic Y. C. So far fourteen 
races have been sailed, and there are still four 
more before the season ends. To qualify to 
date a yacht must have started in eleven races, 
and to qualify for the season a yacht must start 
in thirteen. So far only three of the eight 
yachts that have sailed in this class have quali¬ 
fied. but Suelew and Grayjacket, which are 
only one race each behind, can catch up. 
W. A. Barstow’s Soya is leading in this con¬ 
test. She has started in all fourteen races and 
has won four, been second twice and third three 
times. Her total points is 86. and her per¬ 
centage to date .767. Spider, owned by Hendon 
Chubb, is second. She started in thirteen races, 
won two, was second three times and third 
once. Her total number of points is 70, and her 
percentage .663. Alice has started in fourteen 
races, but has not won once. Her total point 
score is 71, and her percentage .663. Gray¬ 
jacket has started in only ten races out of the 
fourteen, but she can still qualify if she starts 
in all those yet to be sailed. She has won 
four firsts, one second and three thirds, and her 
point score is 65. Her percentage is .812. Sue¬ 
lew has started in nine races and scores 50 
points, Princess in eight races has scored 47 
points, More Joy in four races has scored 22 
points, and Essex in two races, one point. 
New Rochelle Y. C. 
Forty-nine yachts started in the fall regatta 
of the New Rochelle Y. C. last Saturday on the 
Sound. The wind was very light from the east, 
and the races were stopped at the end of the 
first round. 
The course for the larger boats was from a 
line at the entrance of Echo Bay to Scotch Caps, 
across the Sound to Prospect Point and home. 
It was windward work on the first leg, a run 
with spinnakers to port across the Sound and a 
broad reach home. Windward had the best posi¬ 
tion when the 31-raters started with Corinthian 
in the leeward position and Joyant in the middle. 
They were on the starboard tack and Corinthian 
was the first to go about. 
Joyant gradually worked into the lead and 
down the wind she had Corinthian close astern. 
Joyant went the wrong side of the Prospect 
Point mark and before she could get back in 
the light wind Corinthian had taken the lead 
and eventually won by 3m. 52s. The times:

Bensonhurst Y. C. 
Light winds marred the regatta of the Ben¬ 
sonhurst Y. C. last Saturday. The winds were 
so light that at times the yachts simply drifted 
with the tide, and so the committee stopped the 
races at the end of the first round. There was 
no windward work and the yachts getting away 
first, won. Wink defeated Cyric in the S class 
and captured the series prize of the Atlantic 
Y. C. for which these two were tied. G. G. Fry’s 
dory Tautog sailed against the sailing dinghies 
and was beaten. The times:

Unqua Corinthian Y. C. Officers. 
The annual meeting of the Unqua Corinthian 
Y. C. was held at the club house at Amityville 
last Saturday. Commodore Fred B. Dalzell, one 
of the most popular commodores on the Atlantic 
coast, was re-elected. Under his administration 
the club has been most successful. The officers 
are: Commodore, Fred B. Dalzell; Vice-Com¬ 
modore, Edgar P. Foster; Rear-Commodore, 
William T. Louden; Treasurer, Marshall A. 
Woodman; Secretary, Clark B. Davis; Gover¬ 
nors, Francis A. Williams, Erastus E. Half, 
George S. Thompson, Rufus J. Ireland, George 
Schard, Jr., and Charles R. Duryea; Fleet Cap¬ 
tain, William F. Blake; Fleet Surgeon, Dr. John 
F. Louden ; Measurer, Captain Frank E. Wicks. 
Recently the members of the board of gover¬ 
nors presented Commodore Dalzell a handsome 
watch fob as a mark of their appreciation. The ■ 
pendant was a ship’s wheel on which was the 
club burgee in rubies and diamonds. 
Seawanhaka Yachts Won. 
The 15-footers of tbe Seawanhaka-Corinthian 
Y. C. sailed an interclub match against the one- 
design class of the Stamford Y. C. last Satur¬ 
day afternoon at Oyster Bay. There were five 
Seawanhaka yachts against six from Stamford, 
but the home fleet outsailed the visitors on 
every point of sailing. The five Seawanhaka 
yachts finished ahead of the first Stamford boat. 
The wind was very light from the northwest, 
and only three of the Stamford yachts could 
reach the finishing line before the time limit 
expired half an hour after sunset. The times: 
Seawanhaka yachts: Tamale, B. Wells, 
2.20.04: Hen, Geo. Nichols, 2.22.00; Imp, F. L. 
Landon. 2.26.50; Thelema. C. Mackenzie, 
2.35.05; Grilse, T. J. Roosevelt, 2.47.38. 
Stamford yachts: Fiddler, R. Weld, 2.52.50; 
Killie, C. Jacobs, 3.00.32; Osprey, E. Elliman, 
3.05.00; Curlew, E. G. Dominick: Snapper, E. 
Corning, and Kittiwake, E. Fleitman, not 
timed. 
American Yacht on Lake Geneva. 
Henry J. Gielow designed a small racing yacht 
last winter for a Swiss yachtsman to race on 
Lake Geneva. The boat is about 20 feet on the 
waterline. Mr. Gielow recently heard that it has 
made a splendid record. It started in thirteen 
races in all and won twelve of them. There 
were on an average seven starters in these races.
