Queen Vic- toria’s letters and diary published in recent years disclose that she wrote to her son, urging him not to make too many. visits to the race tracks. One letter begins: “Dearest Bertie: Now that As-| cot is approaching I wish to re-| peat. earnestly and seriously that| you confine your visits to the races to Tuesday and Thursday,! and that you do not go Wednesday | or Friday, to which our Uncle William IV never went, nor did Good Herseman thusicstic principals. ‘The King of pyn. ¢ e V was himself a| England was not merely an inter- horsern uniting the rare iso.:fjj .simcxa@ of nts - 0 _Lh( qualifications of being an eque: T holaort, but he took 4 Kee? tricn and also a sailor.

His “Britannia” was always in high rating for the annual Rcyal Re- gatta at Cowes. The King's ear!y training made him an seaman, and he hed little objection to racing in the stiffest of weather. He was th hly acquainted wi the fine points of yacht r and the captain of Britannia knew that if he were in a tight place and needed an answer for his problem he could always rely on. his King to furnish one. the Pulied on Rops The King invariably was aboara the “Britannia” for the races. Nor did he take a merely passive part. Several have been re- corded when the King lent a hand higself in pulling lustily on a rope. One or two American yachts and yachtsmen have had the privilege of, taking part in yachting compe- titlon with the royal sailor. Several yachts which competed in the King of Spain’s 1928 Trans-Atlantic rate to Santander have at various times come to England to test their speed against the tannia.” One of the King's firmest friends was 8ir Thomas Lipton, who owned the famous line of “Shamrock” yachts, and entered them time after time against American boats. It is worthy of notice that in no, race was the King ever given an advantage because of his posi- tion. For instance, several years ago, in the Bristol Channel Royal Regatta, the owner of the yacht “Westward” protested against the “Britannia,” asserting that the King's boat did not give the “West- ward” a free course around one of the buoys. The committee de- clared the protest valid and dis- quaelified the “Britannna” from winning the second prize, Sir Thomas Lipton's “Shamrock” hav- ing captured the first. Had Good Stable King George was well known, too, in England for his Newmarket racing stable. But in this venture he was much less fortunate than in yachting. In one year he lost about $100,000. His winnings in that year were only $5,000, and his expenses just over $100,000. In con- sequence of his losses in this year, excellent | | entering a horse was a frequent : races. Sev- hunting pac!
