Pacific Coast Yachting. 
San Francisco, July 16.— There have been 
no important racing events in local yachting 
circles since the race for the Corinthian per¬ 
petual trophy last month when the local boat, 
the Presto, so handily defeated the much hear¬ 
ted racer, Mah-pe, of the South Coast Yacht 
Club. Since that time, however, there have 
keen many pleasant cruises and with exception¬ 
ally fine summer weather almost entirely free 
from fogs, most of the yachts on the bay have 
keen out regularly on Sundays and holidays. 
During the week of the Fourth of July a three- 
days’ cruise up the river was indulged in by a 
number of the clubs and the procession of 
white wings through the stretches of the upper 
bay was a large one. The boats of the Corin¬ 
thian and California Yacht Clubs sailed to 
Arrny Point and from there went through the 
Suisun cut-off to Vallejo and Martinez where 
they remained over night. After visiting fel¬ 
low yachtmen there the return home was made 
on July 5. The San Francisco Yacht Club 
cruised to the Gum Trees in Suisun Creek and 
then went to Vallejo where a handicap race was 
neld, the course being from the navy town to 
Sausalito. 
Owing to a misunderstanding the Vancouver 
yacht Alexandra has been withdrawn from the 
international race scheduled between yachts of 
Vancouver and Seattle and relations between 
the two clubs have been broken off. There is 
now talk of forming a new Pacific International 
Yachting Association, taking in Australia and 
Japan. This proposition was considered at a 
meeting of the Seattle Yacht Club on July 8 
to consider the action of the Vancouver club 
in its decision to withdraw from the interna¬ 
tional meet that was scheduled for that date. 
It was announced that Robert Guggenheim, 
who recently donated a valuable cup for the 
New York to Seattle automobile race, will 
offer a $5,000 cup as an annual trophy to be 
raced for if the new association is formed. It 
is considered quite likely that Australian clubs 
can be interested in the proposition as there 
are several large and active clubs there and 
efforts are to be made to induce Japan to enter 
the contest. 
While yachting on the Sacramento River on 
the yacht Pronto of the Corinthian Yacht Club, 
Leo Leiser, a young high school boy of San 
Francisco, was. accidentally drowned. He was 
in company with Lester Stone, son of Com¬ 
modore Stone of the Corinthian Yacht Club, 
and while enjoying a swim in the river was 
attacked by cramps and perished before assist¬ 
ance could reach him.
