TEN YAGHTS ARE ENTERED JUNEAU RAGE Capital-to - Capital Feature Arousing Renewed | Interest in South | With the return of good weather | on Puget Sound, interest in the | Capital-to-Capital cruiser yacht race has received considerable im- petus, according to word received by M. S. Whittier, Vice Commodore of the Juneau Yacht Club. The latest yacht owner to signify his intention to enter the 1,000-mile cruise was Richard Froboese, skip- per of the 32-foot powerboat Bo- | linder. Skipper Froboese was one of the racers last year and cap- | tured -one of the prizes. | The list of skippers who have either entered, or signified their in- tention of entering, according to Mr. Whittier, include the follow- ing: Maidie, Jack Powers, ‘Queen City | Yacht club. { Dolphin II, Ray Stickler, Queen | City Yacht Club.

Reid, owner of a fast cruiser i Vancou- ver, and a well-known ~California yacht owner have alco been in communication with the Olympia | committee regarding entering the race, according to information re- ceived by Mr. Whittier. In an effort to stimulate inter- est in the Olympia-to-Juneau race among California yachtsmen, the Scattle Yacht Club commissioned one of its members, A. E. Griswold now touring California, to carry the word of the race to that sec- tion, stated Mr. Whittier. He has| already addressed the Los Angeles Yacht Club and will speak before the San Francisco and other Cali-| fornia yacht clubs before his re Mr. John Pierce of the | Olympia Yacht Club has just re-| and in connection with A. L. Bro- brick, Chairman of the Handicaps Boat Association, who resides _in Los Angeles, they spoke before a number of prominent yacht clubs. Moving pictures taken by Mr. Pierce and other participants in the 1928 cruise, were also shown, Mr. Whittier was informed. Preliminary Feature As a preliminary to the big Capi- tal-to-Capital event, the Puget Sound yachtsmen are taking con- siderable interest in the long dis- tance outboard motor record run from Juneau to Olympia which wiil be attegpted in May by Raymond Haines of the Juneau Yacht Club, stated Mr. Whittier. The Se- attle and Olympia yachtsmen are planning on giving Mr. Haines a royal welcome on his arrival there and special movie @nd news serv- ices have beeén arranged for to record and broade.st his arrival As Mr. Haines has named his speed boat Miss Juneau, and as he will also fly the pennant of the Ju- neau Yacht Club, considerable ad- vertising will naturally acerue to this city, Mr. Whittier believes.
