Ernest Hiltz. one of the crack mem- bers of the Bluenose's crew, is not in today's race. Snarled in a stay- sail halyard high in air, he hung sus- pended yesterday by the left leg for several minutes after a tack on the beat home, until he had to be cut down.

But the Bluenose soon slipped in through her lee, laid a blanket and walked away. Up to this point, the situation was a turning of the tables, compared with Monday's race. Where Capt. Angus falled then, however, Mor- rissey succeeded today as he took a luffing trick himself when he repeated the passing manoeuver at the expense of the Bluenose. Followed then & hull-to-hull fight that lasted four miles. A bit removed from time to time only, the boats fought al- most a'ongside each other constantly. Angus eventually sent up his staysail, folded in his foresail and went ahead beyond possibility of stoppage. He was challenged for the next mile to the turn. but never headed thereafter, Through four hitches on the stiff windward leg the Bluenose pointed higher and footed faster. The wind on this leg ran up from twelve to twenty miles, with fifteen to eighteen Xknot velocity fairly constant.

President Harding's approval of the celebration by the nation of Navy day on Friday is formally expressed in a letter trom the President to Sec- retary Denby, in which he said: “Thank you for vour note, which brings assurance of the notable suc. cess which seems certain to ‘attend the celebration of Navy day on Fri- day.

It will be upon that asis that we would enter in future conferences or make agreements for limitation, and it would be folly to undermine our position.” MUSICIANS AND BUSINESS MEN PLA NJOINT MEETING A joint meeting of the Community Music Association of Washington and those professional musicians who ap- peared personaily on the concert pro- ms prior to and during Washing- ton's second music week has been called for November G, at 12:30 o'clock, at the Ebbitt Hotel, by Wil- llam Knowles Cooper, chalrman of the association.
