The members of the club and especially those 
who are racing yacht owners, showed their ap¬ 
preciation of the hard work that has been done 
by Chairman John R. Brophy, of the regatta 
committee, by presenting him with a stop watch 
at the mess dinner at which all the racing men 
were present. Mr. Brophy has almost finished 
his second year as chairman of the Atlantic’s 
committee. He has worked hard in the interest 
of the club and of the sport and he has done 
much to help the sport of yacht racing on 
Gravesend Bay. He has many friends. 
New York Y. C. Races. 
The season of the New York Y. C. closed 
on Thursday, Sept. 3, with races for the autumn 
cups sailed on the Sound off Glen Cove. The 
wind was fresh from the northwest by west and 
the tide running west. The course for all was 
from off Glen Cove to the Lloyd’s Neck Buoy 
passing the Matinnicock Point and Center Island 
buoys on the way, then across the Sound to 
Woolseys Reef and then home. It was a broad 
reach at the start of the first leg and later 
spinnakers were carried. Then they beat across 
the Sound and reached home. 
Aurora was first away followed by Istalena, 
and these two for some minutes indulged in a 
luffing match and Istalena made the best time 
to the first mark. On the wind Aurora took the 
lead and she finished beating Istalena im. 37s. 
in the one-design class race. Sailing against 
Avenger and Istalena she did well, but Avenger 
with her big allowance carried away the cup, 
winning by seven minutes from Aurora. 
Dorwina had a sail over in the handicap class 
and she defeated Mimoma II. in the Class L 
race. Alera won the race for The 30-footers.

L&rchmont’s Fall Regatta. 
The fall regatta of the Larchmont Y. C. 
was sailed on Labor Day, Sept. 7 . The wind 
at the start was light from the north and dur¬ 
ing the afternoon it shifted to northeast and 
then east and was very fluky. The courses 
selected took the yachts to Weeks’ Point, then 
to Parsonage Point and then home, 9 J 4 miles, 
and the first leg was a run, the second a beat 
and the third a reach. Aurora did fine work 
down the wind and at the first mark led Ista¬ 
lena by 5 m. 30 s., and this she increased to 10 m. 
32 s. at the end of the first round. On the sec¬ 
ond round Istalena was favored by a slant of 
wind that enabled her to almost catch Aurora 
on the windward leg, and at the end of the 
round Aurora led by only 33 s. She drew away 
again on the last round and won the race by 
4 m. 33 s. 
Several match races were sailed and the usual 
fleet of small boats took part in the different 
events. The summaries:

Seawanhaka Corinthian Y. C. Races. 
The Seawanhaka Corinthian Y. C. had two 
days racing to close its season on Sept. 4 and 5. 
1 he races on hriday were for special cups and 
the yachts of Classes K, L and P were bunched. 
This put Seneca against Aurora, Istalena, Aven¬ 
ger and Red Rover, and Seneca won. The 
course was from off Lloyd’s Point to a mark 
off Greenwich Point, then to Long Neck Point 
and then home. The first leg with the wind 
southerly was a broad reach." It was another 
reach to the next mark and then a beat home. 
I he wind was so light that the race was stopped 
at the end of the first round. Aurora defeated 
Istalena, but was beaten by Avenger and Seneca, 
and Seneca won the cup. 
Phryne won the race for the 30-footers and 
Dahinda won the race for the Alfred Roosevelt 
Memorial cup, a trophy for yachts owned in the

Saturday, Sept. 5. 
Fifty-one yachts started in the fall regatta of 
the club on Saturday, Sept. 5, and were favored 
by fresh southwest wind. They were sent 
around the same course as on Friday, only this 
time the larger yachts went twice around and 
made fast time. The last leg of the triangle 
was windward work. Aurora led by 2m. 58s. 
at the end of the first round and was 3m. 18s. 
in the lead when she started to beat home on 
the second round and she won the race from 
Istalena by 3m. is. 
Atair at the start of the 30-footer class fouled 
Carlita and was disqualified. This was unfortu¬ 
nate, as she sailed over the course in the shortest 
time of her class. Three of the Q boats raced 
and Eleanor won another cup for Mr. Bedford.
