THE EVENING . STAR, WASHINGTON, D., 0., SATURD. AY, OCTOBER 28, 1922. BLUENOSE WORLD " TILE CONFIRED International Race Commit- tee Sustains Victory of f Canadian Defender. CREW MEMBER DROWNS | e | Ameiican Challenge for Cup Next i Year by Henry Ford and Two Others Is Certain. By the Associated Press. GLOUCESTER. Mass., October 28.— The victory of the Blue Nose schooner, Canadian defender, over the challenger, for the north Atlantic fishing vessel championship was sustained late yes-, terday by the international commit- tee. Its decision was unanimous that conaiderations of fair play called for award of the cup and the prize to Capt. Angus Walters, his boat and his men, winners of the last two races of the much mooted series. Almost at the moment that the committeemen disposed finally of the | protests brought against the Blue Nose win of vesterday, the schooner slipped out to sea in the dusk, bound home with flag at half mast, those ahoard not knowing of the award. Skipper Angus, a man of sorrow, staved behind, ‘to go back with the body of Capt. Bert Demore of Lunen- burg, N. S, his nephew and a mem- ber of his crew, who fell overboard from a wharf during the night. Death was due to accidental drowning, it was certified, but an inquest was called to_complete the formalities. Capt. Clayton E. Morrissey of the Henry Ford attached his_name to the protests against the Blue Nose yesterday that they might have a| hearing, but he said to Capt. Angus that they had a good race Thursday and that there was no hard feelings. Himself still ailing, the Gloucester skipper was busy attending to things at home, among others the removal to a hospital In Boston of a son who’ is close to death. But when word came that a member of the Blue Nose crew was dead he went at once to the wharf where she lay with flag at half mast to extend his regrets. i In the review of the protests, the Jnternational committee found evi- dence only on two of the four points. There was no American observer on the Canadian boat on either of the last two races, it was agreed, but it was found that there was no manda- tory provision in the deed of gift fcr such an official. It was agreed, 100, that there had been a change of stay- sails on the Blue Nose, but there was no evidence to show that the sail area was increased, and Capt. Walters filed a formal statement that the sub- | = stituted sheet was part of his working equipment. The charge that ballast had been shifted on the schooner in the absence of an officlal observer was not sup- ported, and Capt. Walter, in this con- nection, signed a statement saving that ballast was not changed during ' the races. The complaint that the suit of sails with which the Blue Nose raced was not that with which she fished was met with the skip- per’s statement that they had seen mervice on the fishing banks. As a separate proceeding, the Amer- ican members of the international committee met and agreed that the salling committee, its subsidiary body. erred in declaring the first contest of the series, on October 21, won by the Henry Ford, “no race.” American challenge for the cup next year is a certainty, it was said last night.

Ben Pine to replace the crack schooner | wrecked on Sable Island a few months | after launching this spring, are cer- | tain challengers. | Kansas Swelters l917 H St. N.W.
