SANCTION OF A P.B AIS GIVEN RACE Official Sanction Received by Juneau Club for Haines's Race South Official sanction of the American Power Boat Association: to the outboard record marathon attempt from Juneau to Seattle to be made this month by R. L. Haines, has been received by the Juneau Yacht! Club. This now places the venture on an official basis that warrants recognition throughout the yacht- ing world The time made by, Haines for the 1,000-mile run in his | outboard motored 13-foot craft will be posted as official *ime by the Association and any future similar attempts, unless sanctioned by the Association and bettering Haines' time ,will not be taken as records. Haines, referring to the obtained sanction, said he considered it the most important feature of the venture. He stated that without it the race against time would be taken as a record achievement only by a few people who personally knew the details. In obtaining the sanction of the| race the local yacht club made | cable application to the head-| quarters of the A. P. B. A. in De- troit. A return wire message stated that the sanction would be granted if this club joined that association. This was done by the Juneau club. Dr. H. C. DeVighne, Commodore of the club, fearing that the official | sanction would not reach Juneau | in time for Haines to take ad-| vantage of it, wired the Olympia | Yacht Club for their assistance in| obtaining the recognition. Word of the recognition granted | came by cable last night from B.| F. Hume, Secretary of the Olympia club. | ‘ber | Department, land the American Legicn. KEAN RESIGNS MANAGERSHIP; FRYE - BRUHN L.

But this is a defect which she believes recent months of grueli play have largely overcome. | She has been wielding her racket against male performers who have | shown her no consideration because of her sex. She has faced the terrific driving of trained opponen's who rate high in coast play, in twn sets daily throughout the winter months. Miss Jacobs' improvement is par- | ticularly noticeable in her speed in covering the courts and in her forearm stroke, two shortcomings of last season on which she has concentrated since. Mer placement. | too, appears more accurate. ¥ Helen Jacobs says she is glad | Miss Wills chose Edith Cross as her partner for the European tour this year. She thinks Miss Cross | earned the Mouvor and that the pair will be a hard one to beat. “Miss Cross is a brilliant player and should advance,” said Miss Jacobs. Miss Jacobs has ambitions to he- come a writer, but thinks that ten- nis will always be her first love.
